WOW !!! A new filter with with multiple images shapes and mask orientated for different shapes !!! Love it, I will have to try it later.

It looks great. |

I have seen that this filter HAVE activated the base image, because the Bombs Away does not have any base image option as obviously all the image would be filled with the small images so it really is not needed at all.
I have not yet tried it because I can´t now, but when I do I will put some example.

There is also a lot more room for experimenting in this filter as far as the editor is concerned... Stupid things happen to computers for stupid reasons at stupid times! |

I have an idea where this could be really very useful and is to make great artistic FONTS
The font to be used as the SHAPE for the filter could be this FREE one here http://www.dafont.com/es/coolvetica.font?fpp=50 Here are some examples that have game this idea and will try to make http://filterforge.com/forum/read.php?FID=10&TID=9488 
For more letters of this kind please see this link on Google images Or search in google images for "alphabet made of bolts" AND also using DICES. 
For more examples, please see this Google images search Or search in google images for "Dice Alphabet" |

And here is the result of a font with 5 flowers
The result is a very quick test and there are some errors but shows what could be done  |

And this is another version that I have changed some settings, and have made smaller filling images and have much more of them inside, and have a better shape of the A |

Good samples SpaceRay....To fix those ahh "errors" I have that in place in this filter.....Go through the layers and turn each layer off except for the layer that is cutting off the image...Then use the XandY offsets controls to move the image...You might also need to use the scale......

Thanks very much for the advice and tips for fixing "the errors" , I knew this was for this, BUT did not know how to use them right, and did not want to spend time finding out, as this was just a quick test.
But now thanks to you I know how to use it.
YES, you are right, thanks for the suggestion I will try it. Is true that filter forge is not always for using ONE ONLY filter, the art of design is combining things, and in the same way that you combine the components to make a filter, it is good and an art to combine different filters to get an awesome result. AND also go beyond that and use the FF filter in combination with excellent plugin filters from other professional companies available like Nik software, onOne software or Topaz labs. |

Above I have just shown some text letters done with this filter, but today I had another different idea on how to custom text with this filter after trying to make custom text with the project I have put in this thread
What about Spirography making with images and PHOTOS ? So then I thought that the best filter that can multiply lots of photos is THIS one created by the genius of CFandM The main key for this one is to load the same photo object in the 5 color control settings and reduce much the size pixels setting until you can have a good design and definition of the letters. The text is loaded as a plain black color mask with transparent background And here is the result  |

Funny that you have seen this as bananas
     
Good point and way of seeing things, As they are really lighting strokes as you can see here below in BIG detail
Now after your comment and can see the "bananas" in the text
All those "bananas" are really ONLY this shape here below multiplied lots of times
and I think that this "banana" shape comes from the top left part |

I know that's the shape you used, I've seen it in your picture spirograph thread. It just reminded me of bananas |
