Emblems Forgery ( Lite Version ) by Ramlyn

Holy Moly! This is really a great addiction to the library.

Yes siree bob that is one fine filter.It's so complicated it makes my head swim. very nice.

Thank you! I'm happy that you like it.
Without your filter, I would have never succeed. So, let's say that this filter work is 50% yours and 50% mine.

The scimitar is very simple. It is just a play of Threshold, Blend, Free Ellipse and Free Polygon.
I made the basic curve using an ellipse. Then I used other two ellipses combined with a polygon to cut away the useless parts. That's all.
It is probably not the best way to make it. For example, using a gradient, like in my shield, instead of the first ellipse, may give a stronger 3D feeling. But it can be complex to find the right balance.
I'm sure you can do better.

Well, it can be a bit different depending on the pictures and how you want to blend them together.

Basically the easier way is Multiblend.
Don't forget to select the right opacity level to fix how the 4 pictures blend together.
If you put a picture over a first picture and you set the opacity to 100%, the second picture will completely cover the first. The first picture cannot be seen at all ( except for the case that the second picture has some transparent area ).
If you want to see the first picture, you need to reduce the opacity of the second picture in the Multiblend.

Even if Multiblend is easy to use, I generally prefer Blend HDR, because of the blend modes ( Multiply and Lighten are the modes that I use the most ).
Try the various modes with opacity 100% at first. If not matching your taste, you can reduce it.
Blend HDR only allows you to blend two pictures, so you will have to use 3 Blend HDR to blend 4 pictures together ( blending pic 1 and pic 2, then pic 3 and pic 4, finally pic1+2 and pic 3+4 ).
Here it is important to find the right balance of light and blending style. For example, Multiply has the tendency to make the result darker. You can make the final result lighter using other components, or you can use two different blending modes ( example : you firstly blend 1 and 2 using Multiply, then 3 and 4 using Multiply, but 1+2 and 3+4 using Lighten ).

Sometimes the obsolete Blend 1.017 can be useful too, having more blending modes.

Ha! Ha! Yes, you are more technical than me.
Only the HDR version has less modes than the 1.017

By the way, nice Filter.

Just wanted you to know Ram that I have already started work on my own line of shield filters...inspired by your good example.

We can have...an arms race! *rimshot*

For Skybase :
Yes. I understood. Sorry, maybe my short answer wasn't clear ( wrote while I was in a taxi, going to Shinjuku. ).

For DJI :
Ha! Ha! Ok, got it. You just click "Image" button, you insert the link of your image, and click ok. Then better you go down one line, just to let some space between the pictures, you click "Image" button again, insert the new link, click ok, and it is done.
I thought it was about the filter, not the forum. Ha! Ha!

For CaliCoastReplay :
Wow! You started a new one. You can use my filter as you like. No problem. I hoe to see your new work soon.

DJI, I think you are trying to post two pictures links in the same pop-up.

1. Click "Image" button.
2. You should get a pop-up dialog saying "Enter the URL (image width should be less than 526 pixels):"
3. Insert your picture URL in the rectangular area for the URL.
4. Click "OK".
5. Now the link to your image should appear in your post in the forum.
6. Click "Enter" in your keyboard. Click "Enter" again to let empty space between the pictures.
7. Click "Image" button again and do the same things you did from my point 2 to 6.
You can add how many pictures you want, repeating the same procedure.
Once you finished, click on "Post Reply" and it is done.

If they are filters of the library, you can just post the link of the picture in the library.
