Fav Photoshop Plugins

[Chaase]

Hi
Yet another newbie questions (I love this site)
I am curious what Photoshop plug ins people use and for what.

I am facinated with the effects I am seeing people get with their photos and would love to get some directions in which way to head as I love tinkering with Photoshop.

Thanks
Bruce

I like Nik Sharpener pro and Digital Film Tools 55mm (particularly this one - I use it a lot for different effects as I am quite useless at doing them myself!). Also Neat Image, and a few actions too.

NoiseNinja has come in handy a number of times for me. http://www.picturecode.com/

I find this little plug-in very useful and it has recieved some good reviews. It's been around a long time and is great with scanned film.

not a plugin but I've made a couple of actions that I use all the time.

new adjustment layer - gradient map black-white
new adjustment layer - solid colour - orange/brown @ 10-20% and set to overlay layer mode

ALso some for vertical and horizontal oriented vignette's
