Website Toolkit

For those who are interested in the boring technical details behind this site, then this page is for you! Cybia first started way back in 1998 (if my memory serves me right). That's practically an ice-age in Web time!

The original site was merely a few pages to host my freeware Photoshop plug-in filters. I had no idea that this site, or the plug-ins for that matter, would still be around all these years later. But visitors continue to stop by here and download things so I'll do my best to keep the site going as long as there is still an interest among users.

Although Cybia has always been dedicated to providing freeware downloads, I am also now developing some commercial products too. This is to help pay for the ever-increasing running costs of this website (domain registration, hosting fees, commercial webspace, extra bandwidth requirements, etc). Without this funding I could not afford to keep this site online I'm afraid.

Don't worry though, the freeware section will ALWAYS remain here and I will continue to add more downloads whenever I can. That's a promise.

All Cybia products, both freeware and commercial, are built for speed and ease of use. They are aimed at being simple solutions for simple problems, nothing more! I hope that you find them useful anyway.
