Introduction
Welcome to the Beginner's Cookbook!
This section of the wiki is dedicated to Filter Forge users new to the wonders of filter creation. The Beginner's Cookbook is intended as an open-ended collection of very basic mini-tutorials -- or "recipes" -- aimed at introducing would-be filter creators to the tools of Filter Forge and the mind-set of filter creation.
Each "recipe" deals with a fundamental visual "problem" and how it can be solved with the Components provided by the Filter Editor. All filter authors are hereby called upon to contribute their very own delicious recipes to the collection.
[ Contributors, please do feel free to add your own recipe page(s) or fill in/add to those pages already provided/planned. Let's keep it fundamental, tidy, well illustrated and well formatted! Use the existing recipe pages as guides in this regard. For better visibility, please post all feedback in this thread. -- Crapadilla ]
