NightVision
By VanDerLee
NightVision is a plug-in for PhotoShop compatible plug-in hosts. It will work with applications such as PhotoShop, Paint Shop Pro, PhotoPaint, PhotoImpact and Picture Publisher amongst many others. Use the NightVision plug-in to create completely realistic army night-goggle type images complete with true over lighting, scaled noise, realistic feedback and anti-aliassed interlacing. Not only does NightVision provide a realistic looking effect, it can actually enhance and correct image intensity just like real night-vision hardware. Besides bringing you total realism, the NightVision plug-in will also you to do non-realistic effects such as the blue scan of a bird shown here on the left. Since any of the effects can be switched on and off, you can do a lot more than just enhance images. This image of a cowboy wearing a hat has been entirely created using NightVision, the source image was of normal color but by using a black scan color and enhancement, the over lighting feature took care of all lighting, creating a moody image. Adding noise and large feedback made it look just like a shot from a black/white surveillance camera. You can use the NightVision plug-in for post-processing your images and (3D) animations or just for any of the separate effects it contains, in particular the interlacing feature is by far the best quality interlacing you will ever encounter and the enhancement option will allow you to look at details previously hidden in dark images.
Bezique
By Malcolm Bain
A fascinating card game for two in which you play against the computer. In this version you play against Winston Churchill. It was Winston''s favourite game in the early 20th century. The original game of Bezique is the ancestor of American Pinochle, which, along with other versions such as Rubicon Bezique and Six-Pack Bezique have become more popular. However if you want a game for two people this is the best. Using a 64-card deck consisting of two 52-card decks from which the deuces through sixes have been removed you have to try and make various combinations such as sequences, marriages of Kings and Queens and of course Bezique which is the Queen of Diamonds and the Jack of Spades. Full instructions for playing and graphical descriptions of the combinations you can make are included.
