CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

A perfect example of a piece of software that does one specific thing incredibly well, SolarCell is the de facto image-editing plug-in for creating solar imagery. It's also probably the only one, but the effects it can create are worth a look. By using the plug-in with any compliant image editor, you can create a variety of realistic sun effects, complete with solar flares, halos, and spikes. Unlike most image plug-ins, however, SolarCell doesn't add effects to existing images; it only creates new ones. It takes a while to get control over the dozens of sliders and pull-down menus, but, once you get the hang of it, this plug-in can create some attention-grabbing astral effects.

Publisher's description

From Flaming Pear :

SolarCell generates images of surreal suns and coronas. From modest white dwarfs to red supergiants, you design your own stellar phenomena. You control the coronal flares, diffraction spikes, sun-surface details, and halo and rainbow effects. SolarCell lets you make brilliant stars in impossible colors, or tone down the controls for a more realistic look. SolarCell's Dice button gives you different, ready-to-use random effects with one click. Composite suns into your backgrounds, or use special image-combining modes to produce eerie results. Create your own night skies or place false suns in a photograph.

Version 1.32 is a bug-fixing release.
