Nik says they offer "powerful plug-ins for Photoshop and Lightroom".

Sandman
But Tony said just above that Nik doesn't claim to be plug-ins! He'll be pissed at you now.

I knowing you sometimes struggle with the language, but you should be able to understand the difference between "a Photoshop plug-in" and "a plug-in for Photoshop". That word "for" in there should be simple to understand.

you *must* be kidding me.

A "Photoshop plug-in" would be a plug-in authored by, and offered by, Adobe. A "Plug-in for Photoshop" is a plug-in that is authored by some other organization and offered as something that will work with Photoshop. Nik is offering a plug-in, a plug-in that will work with Photoshop, but not a Photoshop plug-in.

nope. you really are serious. holy shit. just when i thought i'd seen it all.

i've written photoshop plug-ins. i know many software developers who have written photoshop plug-ins. i know people at adobe who worked on the photoshop plug-in sdk.

nobody says 'a plug-in for photoshop'. every single person i know who has written plug-ins says photoshop plug-in (or whatever app it is, as there are plug-ins for other apps too).

also, a photoshop plug-in can be used in other apps in some cases.

this is just another one of your insanely absurd and idiotic semantic arguments, where you pretend to know a lot about something you know absolutely nothing.
