Ok, the plugin is finished and tested. I didn´t find more bugs (and I hope I have found all of them).

It is about 78kb in size and offers about 50 new commands to work with images in DBPro. I think it really fast (see the WIP-thread for this).
I made a tiny webpage for links to the help and ini-files.
There is also a link where you can get it and a list of all commands.

I decided to join the inofficial plugin price (15$, 7,5L or 11 Euro). It is available via share-it or per paypal (with paypal it´s only 10 Euro). All updates are free for all who purchased it.

Did I forget something...
Ah, yes: the demo. I hope to finish it tonight and upload it tomorrow on the site mentioned above.
I´ll post some screenies of the demo tomorrow, too.
For now you can see some in the WIP-thread:

The demo just doesn't work for me.
It loads the menu, but I'm not able to select anything or even to quit (have to go over the task manager).
Very strange.

[Edit]
Btw. It's very strange that the help files state different parameters, than the keywords.ini.
For example "sharp image".
The helpfile states the parameters "Sourceimage, DestinationImage" while the keywords.ini says "Sourceimage, DestinationImage, Intensity".
Is there a Intensity parameter or not?

@ D-Man
I´ll check this with the demo tonight. Maybe (probably) its my fault. Then I ´ll upload a changed version tomorrow. Sorry for that.

The sharp and the mean filter has no option 'intensity' (I first tried to add one and then forgot to change the ini file).
I fixed that and upload the new files. Thx


//EDIT: I uploaded a new version of the demo. The old had a bug with the filename. This one should work. I some1 downloaded the previous version (D-man), it should work if you rename the file (maybe Image Demo.exe or so - it has something to do with the GUI-plugin)

I can't believe this is getting so little attention! This problay ranks as #3 or posssibly even #2 on my most-important plugins for DBP list. I'll be buying it ASAP...

@Monos
Again my fault. I leave the absolute pathes in the final build. And the media is included in the help files.

You can do two things:
1) Create this path :"CarkBasicHelpcommandsImageEnhMediafor examples" and copy the images mention later (or other images about 200x166 and 400 x 333 (thats the sizes of the media i used))

or wait till monday then I upload the demo with fixed pathes.

The demo tries to load two images:
imgmanipulationsmall.jpg
and
imgmanipulation.jpg
from the above mentioned path.

Sorry for that, I didnt looked carefully enough.

@Mouse
Seems that this will be my fate. The same happened with my IDE, seems that nearly no one even knows about that - not to mention that no one (maybe about 5-10 people exept me) using it. (and I think it has a good quality with some nice features ...

OK, I changed the pathes in the demo to relativ pathes. The Media should be in the same folder as the demo. In the new upload the media is included. It worked well for me.
(Except sometimes with the manipulation commands, when I run it from an other folder then DBPRo/temp, but not every time - very strange... - no idea why it act like this)

Hmm...I really tried to get it working, but I failed.
It seems as if the media is also not included in the new version (that might also be the reason why your plugin gets so few attention).

@D-man. I uploaded the new version, but it seems that it didnt override the previous one. Did it again, checked it: It is the new version now up. Hope that it work right now. Only tested on a AMD 2,4+ / XP system.
