Need to reinstall? Do it yourself!

Do you need to reinstall Backdrop Designer? Perhaps you just switched to a new computer or had to wipe your hard drive. To reinstall, just download the demo installer. When you apply the plugin in Photoshop, use your serial information to activate the product. If you need your serial resent, please contact us using the Request Form above.

Mac-only update. Do it yourself!

Our new 1.2 Intel build works in Mac OS 10.4 and 10.5. Version 1.2 does not work in Mac 10.3. If you are on a new Intel Mac computer, you are probably running OS 10.5. If you are running Photoshop CS3 on an older Mac, you may not be on 10.4.

The earlier versions of Backdrop Designer, versions 1.0 and 1.1, run on Mac 10.3.9 but not on Intel Macs or Photoshop CS3. Windows users do not need to update, as earlier versions of Backdrop Designer for Windows already work with Photoshop CS3.

You can update Backdrop Designer yourself. To update, just download the demo installer. Next, remove the current installation of Backdrop Designer from your Photoshop/Plugins folder. Then do a fresh install. When you apply the plugin in your host application, use your original serial number to activate the product. If you need your Mac serial number resent, please contact us using the Request Form above.
