I want to try an oil painting affect on this shot, but am displeased with the limited scope of PS's. Any one have any experience with plug-ins?
Thanks.

Topaz Impressions, works very nicely, has many presets for different artists.

And nice shot btw!

Dynamic Auto-Painter works great. Free to try but watermarks images.

Thanks.
Is there a choice for Mac or PC, or doesn't it matter?

I have been thinking about getting this program. Is this a PS plug-in? And, since I have Topaz Studio, is this program the same thing? I liked what I saw when I investigated it but I don't want a duplicate program. Is one easier to use than the other? Thanks.

That is already a nice picture, and suggestive of an oil painting as it is.

The bkg. already has an oil painting look. I'd leave it as is.

I like Snap Art - has lots of adjustable effects, and I like their oil painting effect very much.

What do you mean by limited scope, there are no limitations in PS, the only ones that are, are in your mind?
No other painting software ( like SnapArt, etc.) don't even come nowhere close!

The Photoshop "oil paint" effect is mediocre at best. It lacks the look of thick oil brush strokes on textured canvas which other programs do a better job at. Try as you may, you can't easily do this in PS.
