Will neat image work with the Beta version or the final version of PS CS3 ? That is to say will it be usable (re editable) as a smart filter/object .
Thanks in advance for a reply

If you are asking about the windows version of Neat Image then it should work in CS3 beta now (you just have to install the plug-in manually). I have no information about support for smart filters yet.

Vlad been doing a bit more research and yes I refer to Windows version. Based on the photoshop cafe review of the CS3
http://www.photoshopcafe.com/cs3/CS3.htm , third pary filters are not supported as non destructive filters. Not a major problem if Neat Image is applied to a duplicate layer except I guess you can't re edit it but have to begin anew.

Any news on this? I've been dying to be able to use Neat Image as a Smart Filter.
I haven't looked at any of the new Photoshop CS3 SDK material yet, but I did find this little tidbit on this
John Nack blog post:
On a related note, developers may want to update their plug-ins to be able run as non-destructive Smart Filters in CS3. The docs are a bit scarce on this point since we wanted to focus on the Mac/Intel issues, but the Dissolve example in the SDK includes the Smart Filter flag.

Yes, the smart filters will be supported in the next update (v5.
. Neat Image as a smart filter works well in our tests.

Excellent news!
Do you have a rough ETA on the release of the new version?
I am willing to help test any beta versions, in case you can use help.

Thank you for offering your help, I appreciate that.
