CF,

is that 'old news' one of yours?

it looks like something out of the old 'Life' magazine. very nice. a touch more yellowing wouldnt hurt there.
If wishes were horses... there'd be a whole lot of horse crap to clean up!

I love the grit you added! Looks just like an old article you'd pull up at a library's archives (You know, for solving ghost stories, murders, killer mutant whales, etc)! Just wondering, what did the original look like?

Yep I had to get away from the 3d stuff for a bit to get the eyes rested smile;)
This was one I was thinking about finally got around to doing it...
The yellowing can be added in the filter by some controls I put in....
Well I was comparing the results of this filter to some old photos I found online
they looked like they could have been in the "Life" mag..

I don't know anything about "killer mutant whales" smile:) LOL .....but I like the 'bleach' and 'grain' effects of this filter. Every once in a while, I am in need to make a color photo look something like this.....and have to spend alot of time playing around in photoshop to get it. This filter will certainly make short work of it....

Master CF smile:)

Ahaha ^_^. The killer mutant whale was a bit random wasn't it?

Whenever I think of old newspapers, this is usually the first article to come to mind... not quite mutant or killer, but pretty dangerous nonetheless X_X Of course, this article was probably contrasted up on purpose, so it doesn't look like a real old newspaper, but still... well, things like this stick with you for a while.

Oh weird... guess the link only works on the site, it's just an article about the classic exploding whale story in the 1970s I believe -- needless to say, it's quite the bang... errr, I mean mind blow... I mean... errr nevermind... X_X

Zephos.... LOL smile:) I like random..... smile:) I enjoy the mental visuals that you give through your type....always puts a smile on my face smile:)

CF smile:) Yeah, saving time is a biggie!!!

[off topic] When are you coming back over to the dark side? smile:) .....3D algorithmic patterning and such? Wouldn't it be nice if FF had an x,y,z environment and you could type in equations to create these? I think that it would make these filters much faster than having to use all those components.....which makes it take forever just to render a 600 x 600. I would think that it would be easy to create because the x,y,z coordinate system is already set up to give height for the lighting.....

Well sometimes I like to take a break away from those and do some other filter kinda breaks it up for me and keeps my interest..But then I go back to the crazy patterns..Well they would most likly be quicker if I didn't use all those components, but most are needed for some of the things that they do..

Ooooooooo.... Stop teasing me!!! smile:) LOL....

The detail work on the first one is amazing....probably why it's slow. I'm not even going to bother asking how you get the edges to look like fractals smile:) The pattern on the second looks like the beginning to a smooth 3D vortex tiler.....very nice!!!

Man, I can't wait to learn how to do this....but I'm currently sucked in on about 20 different glass filters.... You wouldn't happen to offer an on-line class to learn how to do this smile:)

I have to tell you, every time I look at your work, I start envisioning the patterns in 3D glass....kinda like my own personal goal to achieve. Don't get me wrong, I'm anamoured with your work 'as-is' smile:)
