Well one of my new filters posted and when I went to look at it I see that there is a seam http://filterforge.com/filters/11290.html Can anyone tell me what the most likely culprit is? I've been digging through the components and not sure what is generating that. Thanks.

Hi Burt,
I found two problems: 1)the smudge component interacting with the profile gradient created the vertical lines at the edges in the corals. It helps to replace the profile gradients with free gradients. (Also, you don't need to smudge the x-displacement gradient, as you're not displacing in that direction.) 2) The fish scaling was also breaking the tiling. They have to be scaled to 1/2 or 1/3 or 1/4 the size (50%, 33,333% or 25%) so that they continue to tile at the edges. The "perspective" fish are even trickier, they have to be scaled 100% at every EDGE so they tile. I fixed those two issues here but you may want to tweak the look of the schooling fish some more. TD PS. Looks like you need to fix the creator name back as well after I edited the file ![]() Coral Reef Inspection.ffxml |

Wow, thank you so much. That is really above and beyond. I really appreciate it. I'll take a look and do a quick update.

Looking at the other presets now there seems to be other complications, as the fish do get cut off. I really just looked at the default preset.
