One can't make Plugins using FB^3 currently. Myself and others have 
whined about it, but no joy yet and not sure of the future. A 
megabummer. And a $ore point, since plugins make good cash. Even cache.

Codewarrior with Photoshop SDK 6 isn't too hard to fathom though. I got 
the sample Dissolve filter working without too many problems. Though 
customizing an interface and understanding the tiling convention wreaks 
havoc on my brainoid. If I could fathom it better, I would make a mega 
plugin with most of the best of Compositor in it.

Not sure about Photoshop v7... that requires some $ outlay and another 
SDK, and no guarantee of receiving the SDK even if you make the cash 
outlay.

Programming sure is getting harder to fathom it seems like. The API's 
are so complex nowadays.   Getting harder and harder for one person to 
understand the big picture.

Except for RP. :) (and you other people who know who you are)
