Path Styler Pro is a plug-in for Photoshop and Illustrator that uses paths to create images with super sharp bevels that can be enhanced with metallic materials, textures, procedural maps, reflections, and more.
Path Styler Pro uses paths to create bevels that are much sharper than the bevels created with the pixel-based technique used by Photoshop. Path-based bevels do not have the typical soft look and, in addition to the rounded joins at corners, bevels can have angled and sharp-edged joins as well.
Together with four colored lights, bump mapping, custom shaders, and a host of other high-end features, users can create a wide range of designs fast and easy.

Here are some key features of "Path Styler Pro":
Multiple super sharp bevels
Metallic, glass, and plastic materials
Procedural maps
Bump mapping with contours
Reflective materials
Directional, omni, and tube lights
Editable contours and gradients
Fast previews
Over a 100 visual style presets.
