elk Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Hi there, did anyone here try the WebP PlugIn for Photoshop (until CS5/6)? http://telegraphics.com.au/sw/product/WebPFormat In my Affinity Photo Desktop (1.6.7) it is not recognized :-( Quote Thanks for reading. ................................................................................macOS 10.13.6 | MacBookPro | 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 | Affinity Suite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 That’s a File Format (*.8bi) plug-in. Affinity Photo only supports Effects (*.8bf) plug-ins. elk 1 Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.4.1 (iPad 7th gen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstdefence Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 It always fascinates me that Transparency comes at the cost of a file "increase" in size when there is actually nothing there opposed to when something is there, so how can nothing be more than something lol! Can't wait for quantum mechanics to be applied to file compression and we start to get minus file sizes because of the use of Dimensional Compression and Flat Space technology, this would be Ultra cool.

Thats obviously why nothing is equal to something but in this case plus transparency ...

For raster images transparency is something there that makes something else that is there appear not to be there ... or something Quote All 3 1.10.8, & all 3 V2.4.1 Mac apps; 2020 iMac 27"; 3.8GHz i7, Radeon Pro 5700, 32GB RAM; macOS 10.15.7 Affinity Photo 1.10.8; Affinity Designer 1.108; & all 3 V2 apps for iPad; 6th Generation iPad 32 GB; Apple Pencil; iPadOS 15.7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm. Maybe a better analogy would be to the holes in a semiconductor crystal lattice, the locations where electrons could be but are not? Like the lattice, it is the raster image that has (virtual) substance & provides the context for the holes. Or maybe "nothing" is just an illusion, the result of a quantum mechanical effect we cannot perceive directly, like the infinite Dirac sea of particles in what we think of as the 'nothingness' of a perfect vacuum? Or more fundamentally, maybe it is that nothing is just something that is an artificial construction of the human mind? There are a lot of ways to look at this, many of which make my head hurt if I think about them too much! firstdefence 1 Quote All 3 1.10.8, & all 3 V2.4.1 Mac apps; 2020 iMac 27"; 3.8GHz i7, Radeon Pro 5700, 32GB RAM; macOS 10.15.7 Affinity Photo 1.10.8; Affinity Designer 1.108; & all 3 V2 apps for iPad; 6th Generation iPad 32 GB; Apple Pencil; iPadOS 15.7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
