Foxxee's Creme de la Gem by Foxxee

I'm going nuts... many of my filters that turned out very nicely balanced for me somehow seem to be going all loopy when I try to use them on different size pictures.

Below are 2 examples.
The beads are cut off or just cannot be lined up evenly. I went back into the filter and added Offset for the vertical and horizontal and still can't get them to line evenly on all sides.

Any suggestions or ideas why this is and what I might be able to do about it, please

Nice frame work! The two teddy bears make a perfect photo to show-off your filter!

Great job!

Thank you both, I really do appreciated it... hehe

I know how you can overlook a filter with so many to go through, I seem to do it all the time. Hope you understand this is not some 'cheesy' excuse to get it up in the forum for a 'look-see' though

This frame, and some of my others, are really getting on my nerves when it comes to getting them to look even. Anyone else ever experience this too, or is it just me

Ahhh, so it isn't just me then going crazy... (whew!)
Thanks for the explanation, Kraellin, I do appreciated the help

So, I'm wondering now... is this why sometimes I find filters I've downloaded have the Seamless tiling box checked then? If that's what I need to do to give it balance then that's what I'll do from now on

Gemstone frames; excellent!

the library is divided up into 2 types, 'texture' and 'effect'. when you're looking at the list in the GUI, you'll see this. the top half is texture, the bottom is effect. 'effect' basically means it has an image component in it...somewhere...anywhere. texture filters dont.

ALL filters in the texture category have seamless turned on automatically when they are submitted. effect filters dont, unless the submitter has turned them on.

turning on seamless often alters the look of a preset. thus, if you make your presets without seamless and submit as a TEXTURE, the presets WILL get altered. you'll see this question come up fairly frequently... 'why do my presets not look like i made them???'. well, that's why.

This is great to know!
Thanks again for the help, it's much appreciated

I need to get some sleep here...(waves to Ahimsa)
