Ramlyn Ramlyn Posts: 2930 Filters: 691	Humm.... In my old computer ( Windows XP ) it takes only 2 minutes and 52 seconds, as you can see below. Maybe you used a very big picture or you kept open some other program at the same time ( for example, Firefox may slow down FF a lot ).

DJI Official Bologna Tester Posts: 4583 Filters: 257	Your right I do keep my browser open a lot when i'm working with FF. And I do have Firefox. So i'll redownload your filter and try it again. "Art is quite useless." Oscar Wilde

DJI Official Bologna Tester Posts: 4583 Filters: 257	Hey Ramlyn. Thanx for the suggestion. Turning off Firefox did cut down on the rendering time by quite a bit. "Art is quite useless." Oscar Wilde

Ramlyn Ramlyn Posts: 2930 Filters: 691	Nice! An idea could be to apply it only on a small area :

Ramlyn Ramlyn Posts: 2930 Filters: 691	I uploaded the woman picture in Photoshop, I selected the area, I applied the filter on that area, and.... done.

DJI Official Bologna Tester Posts: 4583 Filters: 257	Well it looks great. I don't have Photoshop and even if I did I wouldn't want the bother of learning how to use it. "Art is quite useless." Oscar Wilde

Ramlyn Ramlyn Posts: 2930 Filters: 691	You can do it also with smaller programs. Do you have GIMP? GIMP is a free graphic editor and not too difficult to use. It can be a good choice. Anyway, if you use GIMP or another graphic program, you can get the same mask effect doing this : - Apply my filter on the whole photo. - After applying the filter, load the photo in any graphic program. Delete all the area around the mask shape and in the eyes. - Load also the original photo. - Copy the mask image over the original image. Done. ( I think you can do it in Paint.NET too )

DJI Official Bologna Tester Posts: 4583 Filters: 257	Yes i've done a lot of that it's called layering. Here's 2 I did quite a while back. "Art is quite useless." Oscar Wilde

DJI Official Bologna Tester Posts: 4583 Filters: 257	The way your mask fades off at the edges is really nice by the way. I guess I thought that perhaps there was some special process you were using in Photoshop that i was unaware of. There are ways to do that in Paint.net,i've just never found a use for it. And it takes more steps to do that in Paint.net than it does in Photoshop. I've seen tutorials on how to cut out an image and get it ready to layer in Photoshop and it's way easier in photoshop than it is in Pain.net. But what can I say! I love Paint.net! . The 2 examples above were done with filters from FF and then layerd together in Paint.net "Art is quite useless." Oscar Wilde

Ramlyn Ramlyn Posts: 2930 Filters: 691	Both your pictures are very good. I installed Paint.Net too. I'm learning to use it.
