Filter Forge Filters
FilterForge is an extremely powerful node based texture creation tool that works with or without Photoshop enabling you to create amazingly realistic texture effects. I've found FilterForge endlessly useful for creating tiling textures for game environments, models, and a myriad of photo editing situations. These are filters that I have created and submitted for the community to use and adapt.
