Thanx Capt'n I actually tried to get other authors to do this, but no one would listen to me I can't believe that no one ever did these.....because they are among the most commonly used photo effects. I started needing them for my own work, so I decided to submit them as well for others to use......

I have now have a whole series of softlens tinting effects from this.....which I will polish up and soon submit......

This one looks better on pics that aren't the life preserver ha-ha. I've got a sorta similar one I barfed together this weekend, which was kind of an accident really since I was going for a spotlight blur effect and failed miserably ha-ha.

jffe

Waiting for the update to come in~ Luv that you are making soft photo filters~

These are excellent!

Thanx, I thought that I would do something different than my "specific" effect filters.....and actually make some usable filters

LOL

All your filters are useable! Me luvs your filters~ hehe (Speaking as a user).

What is this "HU" thing you speak of???

Houston University? House Urban? HourClub Underground? Short for 'How'rU'?

Ah, that sounds cool.....would love to see it.....

I just made some nice enhancements to this one that you may like.....in addition to enhancing all of my other photo filters.....and just submitted them all.....so they will be in the library sometime tomorrow morning.....

If you like this one, then you're going to love what I did with "Softlens - Modes".....alot of creative blurs in that one.....also will be there tomorrow morning.....

Sounds like you are having fun with the little spud.....

For me it covered the whole image.

Here is the original, you'll need to click on these so you can see how nicely the filter changed the pic. In the original the tiger's fur looks like plastercraft in mahy areas, with the filter it softened that problem right out. The models used are made by a variety of artists and although they look like they are almost all the same style, there are differences. Levi's pic stands out a lot in the original as just being a real pic tubed onto a graphic pic. With the filter all the models look like they are maybe by the same artist now and Levi fits in a little better.

Reposting the original in a larger size

It's now called "Softlens - Threshold".....I changed the name (and improved the filter beyond original recognition) after this string was started.....and unfortunately it doesn't update the string title.....which I think would be pretty easy to correct.....

Manon, those look great!!!

You could start a business doing that type of thing, eh??? .....

Nice use of this filter to haze the background for depth.....very clever!!!

Not posting the poster as it is too large and when reduced the print is too small, so here is the link to my site where the comic has been added as single pics. Ignore the banners, they need work. http://home.arcor.de/isabella_nanette...iathan.htm

You're welcome.....

Manon, just checked out your link......those are funny!!! I must admit.....putting baby picture in artificial scenes with quotations is a pretty good business idea. Have you thought of offering that type of service through your site???

On the chopped head ones......you could cut out the rest of his face and paste it into a character or something like that, eh???

Well, I acually have well over 200 if you count the ones that I've had deleted....
