Are there any plugins available to produce a good "realistic" water splash/spray in Corel like the ones available for Photoshop? The ones I find for Corel look "cartoonish" to me. I would like a good "real" looking splash or spray. I searched the forum and found one post but that is not what I'm looking for. The ones I would like to find are like these....

I have some plugins from a guy that took Photoshop plugins and turned them into ones that would work in Corel. They can be downloaded for free...they are "blood splatter" and "Smoke" This is the type I/m looking for. Would it be possible that someone here could create such a brush for Corel X6?
you can try this converter http://sourceforge.net/projects/abrviewer/ it is called abrViewer.NET and it takes photoshop brushes and converts them to usable files for Corel. You do however have to mask them to create brushes. I think it shows you how to. Its worth a try.
In addition to Michael Davis post......
I use ACDSee to open and convert .abr to Jpg. I then create brush from jpeg and paint away. This example is straight from the first one on the website you posted. The Corel Help files will guide you into making custom brush strokes. If further assistance is needed, continue this post.
thanks mike. even i will go look at that one as well. I have been using abrviewer for a while and now i can see if it holds up or if the one you suggested is better
Thanks a lot guys for the help. I'll give your suggestions a try.
I've downloaded the abrviewer as mentioned above. When I open the Photoshop files with it and export them..they are exported as .png files. When I place them into folders I created under "custommediastrokes" in the Corel Draw directory they don't show up in the Artistic media selections. I have to manualy navigate to the folder to make my selections. Is that normal or do I need to convert the .png files to something else? I have been able to save some individually by opening them up then saving them as a sprayer. Do I just continue doing that till I get all of the saved? I would also like to change the color as you have done with your blue example.
