Inelegant Pipes by jffe

I still like it. Great look on that first preset. Could use these for a futuristic
pipe organ..

yup, i like that default preset also. that's one of the best 'polished metal' looks i've seen in an FF filter!

Hey Guys,

I have many favorites among the filters you guys have created.
I am only at the point of creating very simple filters or modifying existing ones.

I am so addicted to creating textures and the techniques for doing so that usually
wait until I am using a filter that I like but then want to add my own image or other
effect to.
I often use many different filters on a single image.

However I just want to say jffe that inelegant pipes Rocks! It is my new fave I have been doing some real cool things with it.
Granted I often started with images that I have used other filters to make, lol.

The one above is part of a collection I am making called "Ancient Relics".

The next three are a part of a Hearts Valentine's day collection, I used the new
valentines filter, then Inelegant pipes.



Oh yeah I just remembered I made these with a modified version of Pipes.

I added blend in between the profiles gradients and the kaleidoscopes and perlin noise functions. Then put an image box into the background plug of the blend.

This brings up a question I would be happy to share this modded version, is that
allowed to mod other peoples filters and then upload those?

Just a kudos post to jffe and infiniview. Cool filter and cool images!
Also, I believe nothing is truly your own, so I'm glad to read where filter makers encourage modifications on there creations...

infiniview,

very nice! i'm enjoying your style. i'm naming your pictures:

1. metal petal
2. blood steel
3. steel marrow (dont really like this name that much, but, oh well )
4. organic steel



we've had this discussion, in part, before. ownership rights of the filters and the derivative works, seems to be ours, with something like unlimited useage rights by FF, once a filter is submitted. the derivative works are your own, unlimited and unreserved (whatever images you create with the filter). but, you can read the eula for more, or the forum discussion(s).

the bottom line on using someone else's filter(s) or parts thereof is, go for it! common courtesy, if nothing else, dictates a nod to the originator, usually put within the filter info portion of the filter.

yup; one good idea tends to spark another

When you submit a filter, it will prompt you after signing in, and ask if it's an update, or a new filter. Just select update, and choose which filter you are updating.
