Thanks very much to both of you! smile:)

I ran a little experiment with a seamless version of preset 9. I used it as a height field, then applied the diffuse map to the result:

This looks really great, Capn. I really enjoy looking at 3D images and what objects and environments look like with different applications of textures and such being used in them. Thanks for sharing this one smile;)

You did good smile:D

Ahimsa: That first one makes me think of the reflections in one of those glass ball ornaments for your Christmas tree. And... my favorite color again! smile:D

The second one makes me think of that old CGI show from television, 'Reboot'. smile;)

Foxxee. I think so. I think we like similar colors. I like purple on the blue side and blue most. Then greens, yellows, black, red, orange, and brown, in that order.

That first one has some good reflections. I wanted a black grid, but it didn't work for me. Any suggestions?

Well... I tried this out myself, and here is what I found out: If any 2 or more of the RGB values are zero, the grid disappears! smile:( I looked into it in the editor, and realized this is due to the blend mode I used.

I chose that particular blend mode in an effort to allow for very bright grids, but unfortunately, it has had the added effect of making dark grids nearly impossible. smile:blush:

Well... I have a few ideas for a work-around, so hopefully I can do an update on this one. smile:hammer:

That was actually in my mind when I started this filter, and definitely one of the effects I'd like to add in an update. smile;)

When it comes to fiction, I'm almost entirely a sci-fi-kinda-guy... but would you believe I actually read books on science and math too? smile:D

(BTW... if you like Greg Bear, you might also like Gregory Benford, Charles Sheffield, & David Brin.) smile;)

I'm legally blind now so I can't read regular books and even e-books get hard on my eyes. I can handle reading posts because they are short and I can rest my eyes a lot. Reading a book a few sentences every 15 minutes or so just isn't much fun.
