Are you in search of the same “prism overlay for Photoshop” that I use to create stunning images similar to the one at the top? I have the exact copy, however instead of an activation code, I have a serial number. The serial key lets me activate or disable Photoshop “Prism Overlay” at any time I want.

How on Earth did I find a “free” copy of this software? It was available as an “Prism overlay download for free” on a variety of websites across the internet in the days when Photoshop CS2 was still in its “olds”. The code was available to download at absolutely no cost! I would guess that it was a pre-sale advertising and promotion tool, but I’m unable to say that it was a “free” promotion. To be honest, a significant portion of those who received the “free” CD set ended up spending a lot of money to fix the issues that plagued the installation of the software that bundled the CD with the prism overlay program.

The issue with the freebokeh effect was its inability to show up correctly on higher quality printers. It would appear gray rather than white. prism overlay png This meant that the image I was looking for for my “free Photoshop action” appeared very bleached or almost dark when printed. I would need go back to Photoshop to make any needed adjustments or resize the image to print properly. It was free, didn’t it?

I’ve tried a variety of free bokeh overlays in Adobe Photoshop however I found one that works well on my ink jet printer as well as my computer. It’s called Photoshop RealUI. It is available to download at no cost from Adobe’s website. After installation, you must select “bokeh overlays” in the “effects” dropdown menu and click the “OK” button.

The only problem with the free photoshop action you need to choose the image you wish to overlay, and then click “choose from the list”. That’s all there is to this amazing program. Anyone who is interested in learning free photoshop action and have numerous png images that they can play with, I recommend it strongly. To give depth, you can make simple flowers using a color like red and then add a black-and-white image. This is just one example of the many options this program provides.
