Description

A pretty pattern-generator that creates enameled, Art Nouveau-like medallions, tiles, seamless textures, or – yes! – stained glass windows.

Controls of note:
"Pattern Seed" selects a bond type for bricks, which is the basis for the colour, saturation, and underlying pattern of the finished render. The filter then adds kaleidoscope transformations, chosen with “Pattern Type.”

The pattern offset controls are there to allow you to center the pattern element you like the best. If you turn “Size: pixels” down, sometimes you’ll see that the centered element is not the one you really want – use the offset controls to zero in on your favourite bit!

Texture controls: real cloisonné doesn’t have quite the texture I’m letting you have here, but I couldn’t resist. Besides, it _could_ be stained glass…

NOTE: Many of the first 9 presets are autotile – this filter is very sensitive to autotile and I had to redo them with that in mind so they would look good on the website. Sorry! ^_^:
