Wow... great fun.

I just wrote a Photoshop action to streamline the steps. Click my name above/left and send me an e-mail (not a PM) if you'd like to try it out and give me some feedback.

Trimoon what a selection, they are great, I have been playing around with this most of the day, flowers seem to work best for me, i tried a face ( animal and human ) but it looked quite goulish ! ! ! ! Is your animal a cat ?

Palms

do they remind any one else of the glass paper weights you can get ?

edit: on the third one, i wondered what would happen if you already had a round patterned shape and did this. i took my image from the patterns thread and tried it. changed it a bit, but not that much

i let you down? oh my; that will never do. uh...how did i let you down?

and yes, i remember those glass paperweights that were semi-spheres and had a glob of something inside the clear glass. and yes, they do remind me of those a bit.

Today i have been trying out Danny's action which works great , I did have one mishap (my Fault) but in doing so found out that you can use rectangles which give you oval's, doubling the fun ! ! ! ! ! ! !

thak you Danny

lovely. and fun. who could ask for more

i always find it fun to learn the method and then take it out on my own. i see you've done the same. i tried it a couple other ways also, repeating the same step instead of changing the setting and also in only rotating it 90 degrees instead of 180. try it with triangles

You Guys

Here I was I had my little daily plan and ran into this darn thread. Tripped over it and made my little action and constructed some of these gizmos and I am way behind on my schedule. The good news is that since I'm retired I don't have a schedule.

It worked for me Would it be possible to have a little pause at the end, it goes quite fast and dont get that good a look at the circle ( unless you are pretty nifty with the pause button ) other than that very good

palms,

thanks and glad it worked! i couldnt get it to play. it downloaded ok, but it seems my .avi viewer wont show it. thankfully, i saved it as a .gif also.

as for the speed, yes, i can change it. i wondered about that. however, i've got some other plans for this yet, so i'll probably wait and change the speed when i do some more with this.

one thing about doing this, was that i used meesoft's smart morph. i like that program. simple, easy to use, and does a very nice job. but, it's got its limits. what i was hoping i could do was really show the neck of the guitar curving around like it ends up as. smart morph couldnt handle it that way... too many 'crossed lines'. but, i'll be playing around some more with this, so we'll see.

These Are Fun.
The instructions ask for a square picture but if you start with a rectangle you get “Amazing Ovals”

palms,

not quite what i expected. in fact, i'm a bit surprised. i would have thought it would have been more thoroughly symmetrical. oh well, it's still an interesting piece
