All Filter Forge Filters By Quasimondo

Gridwarp

Quasimondo — Fri, 16 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 16, 2006, Editor's Pick

Projects a grid or line raster onto an image. The grid gets distorted by the image's color, luminance or saturations channel. Gives some nice op-art effects if you switch off the image itself (Blend Mode 1) and choose some low frequencies. Note: Minimumk Frequency should always be smaller than MAximum Frequency. If you use random variations you will have to correct this manually.

Q*Bert 2.0

Quasimondo — Tue, 30 May 2006 00:00:00 EDT

May 30, 2006, Editor's Pick

Closeup of a huge pyramid made out of metal cubes.

No Smoking

Quasimondo — Fri, 27 Apr 2007 00:00:00 EDT

April 27, 2007

A filter for non-smokers who want to have their images look like they've accidentally dropped a cigarette on them. In short: burn holes into pictures.

Blend Modes: Luma Add / Subtract / Multiply

Quasimondo — Tue, 27 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 27, 2006

A snippet for a new BlendMode that only affects the Luminance, Brightness or Y component of two images. You can either add, subtract or muliply them together,

Blend Modes: Add / Subtract

Quasimondo — Tue, 27 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 27, 2006

A snippet that shows how to build the missing blend modes "add" and "subtract" with the available tools.

Curve To Line

Quasimondo — Tue, 27 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 27, 2006

Demonstrates a technique that allows to visualize FilterForge's internal curves as lines with an pretty consistent line width.

Dr. Distorto

Quasimondo — Thu, 22 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 22, 2006

Creates wild image distortions in thousands of variations with a lot of options to fine-tune them. Very fast.

Inside Out

Quasimondo — Wed, 21 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 21, 2006

Turns the inside of an image outside and vice-versal and combines this with some optional tiling effects. This creates beautiful circular patterns, vortex and tunnel effects. Using Rô's Spherify, Un-Spherify and Uberzev's PolarCoordinates

Curve To Shape

Quasimondo — Mon, 19 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 19, 2006

Demonstrates a technique that allows to visualize FilterForge's internal curves.

Hatchinger

Quasimondo — Fri, 16 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 16, 2006

Reduces an image to 3 colors in 5 shades with a hatching pattern. In order to work properly the "Pixel Size" slider should always be set to the maximum.

Rotate 90°

Quasimondo — Fri, 16 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 16, 2006

This filter demonstrates a technique how to rotate an image in steps of 90 degrees. A future update will hopefully be able to rotate to any angle.

Oxydation

Quasimondo — Tue, 13 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 13, 2006

Generates oxidated or rusty loking metal surfaces

Rug Nouveaux

Quasimondo — Tue, 13 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 13, 2006

This one creates graphical patterns that come in variations between art nouveaux, celtic or even tribal style.

Variblur

Quasimondo — Tue, 13 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 13, 2006

Blurs an image with variing radii based on a blur map. Useful for vignettes, depth of field simulation or frosted glass looks. Note: Due to the use of several blurs THIS IS A SLOW FILTER. Do not change the Blur Radius too often when testing different settings because that will result in long calculation times. Also the use of the "Next Variant" button is not recommended. Rather use the Gamma sliders to adjust the intensity - like this you can make use of the internal caching mechanism.

Rough Edge

Quasimondo — Tue, 13 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 13, 2006

Creates a wide range of rough edges. Currently works only as intended with square images.

Flex Tiling

Quasimondo — Tue, 13 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 13, 2006

Dividies an image into an arbitrary number of tiles of itself. It was quite some effort to make this snippet work - so if you include it in one of your effects it would be fair if you add a little credits note to the description. Note: this filter currently only works properly with square images.

Ditheridoo

Quasimondo — Mon, 12 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 12, 2006

Allows for a wide selection of dithering and rasterizing effects.

Caleidoskopy

Quasimondo — Mon, 12 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 12, 2006

Uses an image's color - but not its structure - for interesting caleidoscopic effects. Comes with many variable options to give it your personal touch.

Simple Tiling

Quasimondo — Wed, 7 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 7, 2006

A tiling snippet that can do 4x4, 8x8, 16x16, 32x32 and 64x64 tiles

Stars on Steel

Quasimondo — Wed, 7 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 7, 2006

A relief of aluminium stars on a polished or brushed steel surface. Settings also allow for a plain brushed steel look without stars.

Unfolded Poster

Quasimondo — Wed, 7 Jun 2006 00:00:00 EDT

June 7, 2006

Simulates the wear at the folds of old posters or maps and emphasizes the former folds with a little bit of highlights an shadows. Note: Currently works only as intended the "pixel size" setting at maximum
