Digital BW, The Print

Mohamed - aside from BWstyler (which I have and like) there are many others:

virtualPhotographer is free - http://www.optikvervelabs.com/

Cybia's BWplus is free (and they have a somewhat more advanced version for
$8.00) http://www.cybia.co.uk/bwplus.htm

Exposure from Alien Skin is expensive but I like it - $149.00.  The nice
thing about this one is the demo download is fully functional for 30 days so
you can really give it a good try.

Black & White Studio from Power Retouche is the one I have been using most
frequently lately - also pricey ($75.00) I don't know if you can print with
the demo - I bought it on the recommendation of a friend.

Subject: [Digital BW] Re: B/W Filters

Welcome, Ezz!

There are so many free actiopns and filters out there you could go blind
looking at them 
all. One I have used and liked very much is Greg Gorman's B&W action. Try
this link and 
scroll down to find the download. I hope it's useful for you!

best,
Sarah
