Filter Forge - Esoterica Blobs from corel painter

ddaydreams Frank Hawkins Posts: 68 Filters: 1	I would like a filter forge filter that does something like Esoterica Blobs fr om corel painter. It basically creates random holes (aka blobs)in a picture such as the picture at this link. Effect I would like You can control min and size and amount of holes.The holes kinda push the underlying picture out of way so the picture flows around the holes so that the holes can fit in nice rather than just cutting a hole. What would be nice is even more control over hole placement, option to just make a few clicks wh ere you want the holes to be and edge detection option so that no holes wind up cut off on the picture edge. Also pixalbender for photoshop has a filter called HOLE that does something similar but with just one hole at a time with precise placement of the 1 hole. Oh yes and no one has the option to mask an area in your own shape (such as a star or a square)and have that shape drive the picture outward and around it so that the picture flows around the masked area hugging it's outer contours kinda like the holes effect If thar be a filter mister up to that, it would be really cool.

The hole fill mode will not work if you do not have a image selected in the "Hole Color" Hole fill mode is 1 = Normal image (will show the loaded image through holes) 2 = Jumbled Image according to the holes size and width 3 = Solid Fill Colors from the source image There are 15 Presets I have made so you can see some of the things you could do. IMPORTANT: I have added the Hole Chaos mode, BUT it does not work, I mean it moves the holes BUT the effect from the lookup does not move accordingly as it happens with the Row Shift uberBlobs [pre-release] updated.ffxml

ddaydreams Frank Hawkins Posts: 68 Filters: 1	These blobs filters are much fun, Thanks for the effort. One thing I had mentioned towards the end of my original post is that no one in any software that I'm aware of has the option to mask an area in your own shape (such as a star or a square or hand drawn shape)in photoshop and have that shape (selection) drive the picture outward and around it so that the picture flows around the masked area hugging it's outer contours kinda like the holes effect. So rather than having math driven holes being what the image flows around. The image would flow around whatever you selected(masked) in photoshop. That would be cool to
