Sweet!

then again I just realized... I made this filter in FilterForge 4. smile:( Now I can't submit it until FilterForge 4 is done. lol.

Haha yeah, I have some 4.0 filters waiting aswell which I don´t want to /can´t rebuild in 3.0. I actually went back to 3.0 for creating filters I want to submit since 4.0 is a while off yet

Coloring is possible, as much as changing shapes is possible.

Beautiful samples!

Nice! The windows look great!

Love those nebulas, look really cool
And those Bokeh samples are SO REALISTIC! Very well done!

May try some more experiments combining images....

Most likely there are 5 layers of differing variations of perlin here.

Ah!, I see, you mean noise patterns like the Perlin noise, sorry I did not thought about this as a "noise pattern", now I understand, thanks.

Skybase Yeah, in technicality, the whole thing was meant to demonstrate subtractive blending with absolute value at the end, not necessary the cascading noise patterns nor the colors....

Yes, is true, what is important is the idea and the technical result on how you have done this and as said above is nicely done and like it much, good work as usual with you.

Sorry that I said this about the colors, but I do not like at all the pink, magenta, cyan and light cyan and any derivative of these, but this is of course my personal and own taste and does have anything to do with you, as of course you can use whatever colors you want.

Well I like MUCH MORE from personal point of view the RGB colors than the CMYK ones and you can have RGBY (with yellow)

For a contrast and clearly different colors I like this shown here, but is just my taste, and even in this image shown above I would surely have changed the cyan for a green color.



I do not want that you change the colors for me, as it of course is your own work, and it is your choice, as said it is just my own taste and I should not have said anything about it, but perhaps in the same as you do sometimes, I could not resist to say that is was nice when I did not like the colors BUT I did like the result and technique, sorry to litter your thread with all this comments about the colors.

Lazily making platformer platforms using FF.

The tiles here were first rendered in FilterForge, then translated to pixel art manually. Since FilterForge allows for seamless tiling, we can conveniently generate complex tilings relatively easily. Of course, pixel art tiling isn't THAT hard but there are things which you need to consider as you deal with shading, coloring, and otherwise. The clouds in the background, also the gradient, were generated with FF.

In this case, I'm manually recoloring tiles to suit my needs and also added variation by chipping edges off. Just as a mark to note: I kinda generated the sceme for a test, not necessary for practical game play. Tiles were assembled using tiled.

I thought about pixel-art based filters. The closest one we have that's pretty authentic is: http://www.filterforge.com/filters/8709.html

Though it really just turns out doing it manually works better than having FIlterForge figure it out. There's something about PixelArt that begs to be done by hand than by computer. Likewise I've seen some exemplar procedural pixel art house / building generator but that too needs manual pixel-art input.

12 nodes you say?
No bomber you say?

DANG! I say

Love your platforms, they look great!

Hehe cool, looks good I like the magic sparkles, or cosmic energy?

Back to another reality.

Oh right... if anybody's interested, I recently made a Facebook Page. It honestly became awkward "friending" people on Facebook. I also didn't like the follow feature very much so I decided to just make my profile a Facebook Page. I figured I'd do some self-promotion since I'm doing a lot of freelance work. I don't have a studio I stand by at this point and I wanna keep up with audiences like friends.

I typically post a lot of artsy stuff... all the way from sketches to final work, personal / commercial (if I get permission), a ton of FilterForge experiments (of course!), music, sound effects, tutorials... yeah ok everything I got for everybody else. So I basically promise you your newsfeed will look a bit more artsy on a near-daily basis if you "like" the page that is.

Revisit of an old filter.

Good FF Bacon

But being picky, any commercial bacon is not all the same and have different waves each slice, so it would be even better if it could be possible to make different kind of waves on the slices, at least have 5 or 6 variants.

Although of course this is just only a suggestion, and I like what you have done as it is and shown above and also the bacon planet

although also being picky again, perhaps it would have looked more a bacon planet it the 1 round bacon was cut in 3 parts, so there would be 3 bacon slices around the planet instead of just one. Sorry for being picky again.

Skybase And another reality!

I like much this nice one you have done and is great and well done.

Have you used your old Rolly Rolly Color Stamp or is it a new renovated version?

Skybase Revisit of an old filter. CrossHatching filter

Very good effect and like much how is converted the original photo to this and how the hatching is made, well done.

Is this a personal and private based old filter or is based in the old Hatchwork ?

I keep admiring you much for making all this kind of artistic and original things.
Thanks for sharing them.

I really wanted a modular video synthesizer from LZX industries. Would be a fine thing to have in my collection. Course I don't have that much cash right now so I made one in FilterForge. Too bad it doesn't do video.

Here are some of the presets. We have 3 "oscillators" that generate 3 separate patterns and each pattern is passed through various operations, each with their own controls. So you can control it manually, although I intended the filter to be enjoyed by pressing the next variant button.

Unfortunately I don't think I'll ever upload this to the library. If anything I'll continue working on it and may publish it on the forums.

Nice! But what do you mean, "prism blur"? Chromatic aberration? Are those down-and-left streaks the source image?

I just decided to call it "prism blur" just as a fancy thing. It's just chromatic aberration really. The source image was a long exposure of some fireworks so the white streaks that go left to right are fr om the original image.

I'll have more examples.

The filter was intended for control freaks. So some of the parameters allow for per-channel control of the blur. But because I wanted to make it so that people can also enjoy hitting the next variant button I'm considering adding certain lim itations.

Added derivative to produce a faint, exaggerated lighting effect which you probably can't see immediately.
