Knockout 2 Photoshop
One of the most time-consuming tasks that graphic designers encounter is creating clean, accurate selection masks of complex subjects. Details like hair and objects with transparent edges are almost impossible to select with the marquee tools and the magic wand. For quite a while, the best masking tools for Photoshop were found in third-party products such as Corel’s KnockOut or Extensis MaskPro. But Adobe added the new and it does a fabulous job of intelligently selecting these kinds of areas. The updated KnockOut 2 (released under Corel’s procreate label) is similar to Photoshop Extract, but more powerful for some difficult areas such as shadows. We have to admit, though, that KnockOut 2 is more difficult to use than the Extract command that’s built into Photoshop, and for the most part, we didn’t see much difference between the selections generated by each program based on tests with the sample files that came with KnockOut (see figure 1). Figure 1: Two selections from the same image: The image on the left was generated by Photoshop’s Extract Command; the one of the right by KnockOut 2.

Does this program work seamlessly as a 'plug-in' with Adobe's PSE-3? Or only with Photoshop? Since, from what I read in various reviews, it comes with a skimpy documentation (makes me thing of Adobe's PSE-3!), are there some good 'tutorials' somewhere on the web? Filter knockout 2.
