Wow I love this filter. I have been playing with this one all evening. It's a great ribbon maker and it will save me loads of time making scrapbook digital decorations. Thanks Sharandra! smile:love:

Thank you, I´m glad you like it! smile:D I had tons of fun playing with it myself before submitting it. I ended up with 100 presets and then had a tough choice of which ones to keep hehe smile:-)

I updated it last night, unfortunately I didn´t noticed a bug in it until after I submitted it >.< I fixed it already but have to wait with resubmitting until the old upd ate is out of the queue.

If you update it and want to fix it yourself, this is what needs to be changed: Add a blend se t to screen as in the screenshot.

Interesting and nice, BUT please would it be possible to add your OWN designs through photo import, OR as I imagine ALL these designs are just FF generated?

I´m just working on adding even more stuff to play with in smile:D

SpaceRay: If you use the filter on a photo and choose Pattern 6 it feeds the image into the Kaleidoscope.

Sharandra is there a way you could get your filter to change the color of the ribbon edge? Your filter is so complex I haven't the brain power to figure out how or where to get the edge to change color.(I only do simple filter LOL) Example. It would be great to have a nice dark blue stitch along the edge of a blue ribbon. All you have now is black. I would love this update if you can figure it out. Thanks. smile:love:

"Edge Color" is what your looking for I think smile:-)
I´m planning on adding in a few different styles for the Edge tho, to make it even more complex smile:D

Yes the edge color is exactly what I meant. I think I have figured it out after looking under the hood of your filter again. But I will wait to see if you add a color control in the same place I did. smile:D I'm also waiting to see your new tweaks on the rest of it. I am really loving this filter. smile:love: Love your examples above. They look much richer in pattern.

Did you mean a secondary color for the edge?

Yes, like the background light blue and the stitch color a dark blue for example. I have figured out how to do it in my editing toolbox. Right now you have the background set at black (With no control) and the stitch (Your "edge" color control in the filter)set to have color control. I hope I am making sense. LOL

Here is an example of the one I made with your altered filter in my program.


I can now put contrasting colors on the edge of ribbons.

Thank you smile:-)

I just noticed that I got lost in my own connection jungle which leads to undesired effects with one pattern. As fixing this will be preset breaking I will release the next update as a separate version. That will also allow me to make a few other changes and clean things up a bit smile:-)

Here is the updated version for now. Have fun smile:-)
