smile:D smile:D smile:D It's done~ Holy Toledo this was a tough filter to make. ((Just because it has a feminine look doesn't mean it's an easy filter)). But here it is~

Information on the filter as follows:

Full Range of Color and Cross Stitch Control

*Important notes for the filter please read*

Thru the color channels you can control the 'width' of the cross stitch.

This filter will also make stitching for you. You can also control the amount of stitching with the color settings. For stitching 'turn the anti-alias' to off. This is very important or else you won't get good stitches even on the presets~ It will even make machine applique decorative stitching.

The colors and the stitching are very customizable~

(((This filter goes great with my 'Country Quilt' filter and 'Collage Filters'))) Or any project~ even background tiles for triple table web pages.

Controls in the settings panel include:

Brightness
Contrast
HSY H
HSY S
HSY Y
LAB Luminance
LAB Spectral Power
LAB Sprectral Power
RGB Blue
RGB Green
RGB Red

~Enjoy
-------------

For this sample I opened a solid white background 400 x 400.

Text applied with solid black then a preset. Could use any 'solid color'.

My shapes were solid black shapes with 3D chosen with Ulead PhotoImpact. Then different presets~

Only one image today because I have a migrain and need rest a bit. Thanks for looking~ smile:D

If wishes were horses... there'd be a whole lot of horse crap to clean up!

yes, looked at the larger. my mother works needlepoint too, and that's what it looks like (to me, of course), one of those grid/meshes with the painted on design. but, not being familiar with cross-stitch, i can only go by what i'm familiar with. besides, i'm a guy; what do i know about it smile;)

well, at 85 she doesnt do nearly as much as she used to, but she still finds a bit of time here and there smile;)

i'm guessing i may be interpreting your picture wrong. when i see the dark areas in the stitch, i think 'holes' but looking at it again, i can see a stitch. so, maybe a larger image would show it better?

This filter was tough and tricky~ I worked and worked and worked it till I got what I wanted and do plan on making a Cross Stitch 2... with a bit of a twist~ smile:D

Can't have enough cross stitch filters so I'll be waiting for when yours is available. I'd encourage you to keep working on it because someone downloading one cross stitch filter is going to want 'all' the cross stitch and all of them will get used~ smile:D

LOL and it's not a Man's filter so us ladies have the market on making cross stitch filters~ smile:dgrin:

I don't get them too often and mostly if I spend too much time at the computer (Graphics). I'd say about once every 4 to 6 months.

Thank you for the compliments smile:D ~ smile:D Tonight I was working on graphics for the filters I have up already. I won't make Cross Stitch 2 right away---> need a break from those little X's, LOL. I do have an idea already in mind for Cross Sitch Version 2 though.

BTW,,, Love your new filter----------> posted in that thread before posting here. Very pretty!~

The nameless filter is taking shape~
