Free plugins

Ok so I have been looking around for free plugins and seem to be unsuccessful. I am looking for free ones, and that may be the reason. So anyway I am looking for something to be able to do what the boris programs do but with out the cost. I want to do nice graphics for intros and sfx. Also does anyone know how to do muzzle flashes for a gun with out haveing to use greenscreen?

Thanks

Hi,

This is a bit late and I don't know if it'll even help. About a year ago I did a project in Vegas 6. I zoomed in on the lens of a camera and out of the fx that was in the Vegas program there is some kind of strobe effect. The way I used it was when in the lens, when I transitioned from one still to the next, I applied that effect. Now don't know if it was in the fx area or in the transition area. Hope this helps too!
