Hi, I've been trying to get more neon like glows into my filters, but this is as far as I've managed and still not really sure how I am doing it. Has this already been done?

I did one called "NeonGlow", but completely different.....an effect on external image.....

This one is really cool.....looks like an ultraviolet effect smile:)

Okay, I tried to get those smilies, but I couldn't understand the German (?) instructions smile:)

Anyone know a good "free" smilie site.....better yet, one that lets you customize your own???

Right click...save...

DAZ has a free emotiguy right now that you can do stuff with in Poser. I did go to a site a few years ago that had a small program where you could make your own. Let me see if I can find it.

I was trying to figure out a way to add them here. I can do a zip file.

Here is the filter.

oh, sorry, ahimsa. i got sidetracked by the smilies smile:)

enchanting pattern and colors. if you want some neon effects, try playing around with some of the curves components. skewing the colors with curves can often produce a neon effect.

I'll give that a try. I have a number of things I want to get done first and then I will see what I can do. I like bright colors in case you hadn't noticed. smile:D

I hope I can get the filter to work. Right now it seems those colors are the only ones I can really get to do that.

Have you tried the lighting in the control panel?

Hummm not sure why only the one preset is going neon...

How's it going? smile:D

I have some that have a nice look to them, but I wouldn't call it neon. I use the lighting smile:D

I really like your purple and blue one. I may just add it as a snippet as what I have so far is so limiting.

It's still limiting. I did make a marble with it, but it leaves a band in the middle so I am leaving it out. I removed sliders that weren't doing anything at all.

Ahimsa is that the current ffxml file? I grabbed it to help out... I cleaned it the aesthetic's so that the processes look neater...

I saw all the sliders... you said you removed some that were not working. Most of them also looked like they needed proper names.

Also... you have no curves plugged in... if you put up a recent file I can play with it some as well and pass it back. Then Lynn can grab it... or visa versa~ smile:D

If ya' want... ??

You want neon right? If you want to do this the newest copy would be best to work with. Up to you.

Looks like you have it under control. smile:D smile:D smile:D

Passing back the neater copy so that you can see how it cleans up. Nothing else was touched.

Sorry about that... trying to get a nine year old to bed at the same time trying to get you some curves...

Okay this is what I did... you had several sliders holding the pattern down to a tiny size... ripped them off.

Added modifed curves from my Carmel & Chocolate filter... then modifed some more.

I got side tracked by a different look (being rushed at the moment)... I think you might want this look so I'm sending it over. Under two of the curves you'll see some empty sliders ready to plug in to Impulse and Circular Arc... left those for you to plug in... so that you can name each one as you do.

Rip and tear out the curves you do not want... add ones you do want... however this should give you a base to work with.

Also you can connect the two curve structures (you'll see two seperate curve structures when you open the file.

And don't forget to take a look at the presets before you change it... youza!!! LOL

I luv curves!!! smile:D (So now you know my secret... which is curves... play with them and have fun)).

Sending the file then I'll get some presets up... sorry I got side tracked from the neon... I'll work on that when I can get my little one to sleep promise...

Hugs smile:D
