Since Adobe does not support Filter Factory any longer, and in fact there is no version for OS X, I wrote a compatible replacement (with a few improvements) named Filter Foundry.

Hi all If you've ever wanted to play with Conway's Game of Life in Photoshop - and who hasn't? - I've made a Filter available (Windows/Mac) which computes this famous cellular automaton. (It's *a lot* faster than doing it with Filter Factory, although you can also download FF rules below.) Download ...

And of course the other reason for the scarcity of plugins for Photoshop on OS X - which Harald has written much about - is that as of version 7.0 Adobe no longer freely provides the SDK to developers. However, as I've mentioned in other fora, it's quite feasible to develop/port plugins for Photosho...
