Thanks

Yeah, I guess technically, 'xenophobia' would be 'fear of strange'... so I guess it would be fear of anything strange. I got the idea from a really primitive video game years ago, called 'Xenophobe'. In a lot of sci-fi, a xenophobe is someone with an irrational fear of aliens (or a rational fear, in many examples! LOL)

ah, fear of strange or fear of strangers. ok, that makes sense then.

yeah, the idea may involve shamelessly ripping of this filter smile:D

lol Might as well. smile:-p

I sincerely doubt I will be using this software after my extension expires at the end of this month. I honestly doubt I will ever have even one HU, much less the three I would need just to continue using it. Most of my filters are surfaces, and since most 'real world' surfaces have already been done, and by people with more technical knowledge of such things than myself, that really only leaves more 'artistic' options, which are subjective at best in their popularity.

Not only that, but I certainly can't see getting the five needed for lifetime upgrades, and once a new version is released, I doubt it would be realistic to try competing for HUs with filters created with the newer version, when I would still be using the old one (assuming the old one would function without the upgrade).

I really think it is about time for me to concentrate on creating as many texture maps for my 3D projects as possible, with the filters I have already built, since this was my reason for trying to acquire this software from the beginning.

Cap, not that these aren't good, but alot of them have been done and seriously effects your chances of getting HUs with them. I would suggest pursuing different concepts like your glass button/paperweight filter to improve your HU chances smile:)
