Topic awaiting preservation: Filter fun

Ok, here`s the deal. I`ve seen this at a couple of other forums and it`s fun. So, I`m going to steal...I mean share it here. (thanks Sir Mark and Master Greg)

The rules :
1) Start with a 300 x 300 document, the fore/background colors of choice, Render Clouds.
2) Use anything in the Filters Menu and Layers Pallette. No other tools or outside filters.
3) Transform is Ok.
4) Name your image, post it.

Now go play.

Wonderful little exercise.... it helped me re-realize how much I hate those things.




[This message has been edited by Michael (edited 08-11-2003).]

Yeah, like you could ever ~only~ use filters. Grabbed some color outta lighting effects.. yea.



Edit: title.. twirly filter thing

[This message has been edited by cyoung (edited 08-11-2003).]

It would be really cool if people would post their filter recipes.

God bless my prehistoric geocities account


Title: London in flames

I picked taht title coz it reminded me of a song refering to London burning down to ashes. For some reason, i find similiarities with the mountain tileset of FF3

EDIT: Insider, i would, but i dont remember which ones i picked, since i constantly changed it..=P

Its just me, or the image is not showing anymore? :?

I am not to sure if I should call this frustration or dentures



(had neighbor over for dinner and just when we sat down for dinner she hauled out her dentures to explain the mechanics of such devices.... oh fudge ) I am off to brush my teeth what an inspiration.

Trippy...

Same image a couple steps later



Interesting... forgot what most of those filters did.

2) Use anything in the Filters Menu and Layers Pallette.

Yay for that second part Some lense flares & hue/sat adjust layers later, we have lense flair.

Dude! Dat be da illest shit yo!

Even thought I must admit using and abusing of filters often leads to nothing, they're useful to people who can't hold a brush at all (me )

Edit : grammar.

[This message has been edited by Moon Shadow (edited 08-11-2003).]

Used a single Alpha, hope that isn't cheating. Still an Alpha is just a greyscale layer right? I'm not rationalizing.. no!



I was going for mountains.. the cold type..

I opened my 300x300 but everytime I ran a filter I get the following error:

quote:

---

Could not complete the <insert filter her> command because the selected area is empty.

---

somebody help!

edit: ah, skipped the foreground/background/clouds step... :P

As per usual with these things I've twiddled and untwiddled on so many layers that methinks the main "filter recipe" I can remember using were, clouds, polar coord, and wave.

grr.

I had a couple all set to go, but this wonderful new worm that seems to be attacking everyone has made all of my folders on my computer 'read only' and I can't uplaod them =(

Be back after I disinfect.....

.

btw, DB - I have tried to avoid saying (or even thinking) this....but your first image looks disturbingly like a rectum gone terribly wrong.....

^ You old proctologist you. =)

DL : That is an interesting little worm, isn`t it ?

And that`s why that first one is in the colors you see now. The original colors made it look really disgusting.

Yes, it's been very fun (that worm....that is....)

here are some of mine - fun stuff, and it's always good to remember what these things actually *do*

This "Gallery" is looking sharp.
[edit] Oops got totally carried away (re DL-44 below) heh. I posted two images that did not meet the brief, re: " Another couple using the radial Gradiant Tool set to multiply a little polar coordinates, and layers set to various blending modes". Thanks for keeping me on the straight and narrow DL-44 [/]

You can go Image>>Image Size and enter 300 (with the constrain proportions box checked) and type enter.
Or right click the image title bar, select Image Size, and enter 300, click Ok.

You don`t have to re-do it.

Just for informations sake.

Yes, i clearly know that (i'd kick myself seriously if i didnt ), its just taht detail is lost

Whee, this was kinda fun. I ended up going through like, 20 filters though... O_o I like it though, so yay. Also discovered a really cool effect when fiddling around. The outcome now adornes my desktop. If you're curious, e-mail me, or something... o_o Anyways, back to the image.
