Filters
Blur (note the rendering of the thumb arrow)
Layer Blending
Layer Style
Threshold
Color Balance 
Things to keep in mind:
- These can be found in just Photoshop; I can’t imagine what I’d find elsewhere in the suite. Actually, fine, here’s the first one I found in Illustrator CS5:
- The most common out of all these seems to be second one, Brightness Adjustment.
- They’re all ugly. The only near-acceptable one is the Layer Style slider.

Well, looks like my D900i has bit the dust. Upon turning it on I’m now greeted with a highly useful black screen. Orange aren’t up for doing anything to help (surprise, surprise) so I took matters into my own geeky, phillips 0 wielding hands.
