11 images or Colors stripes experiments using different components

I have made already 4 filters about 10 Images or Photo Stripes Mix, 3 of them are still to be uploaded to the library as I have submitted them but there was errors.

Although I like the result from these filters, there was something I did not like and that I have found that using 10 stripes is not enough depending on the result you may want, for me having only stripes is unbalanced and is missing 1 stripe, and is not possible to use the method I have used above to have an additional stripe, so I have made a totally new filter using Free Rectangle to build each one of the stripes, and carefully using remapping on each of them.

I haver started this thread because I want to make some different experiments using the stripes as source to try to use different components that could be added AFTER the stripes and see what happens and what can I get from this, and will put here the results.

I will explain with examples why 11 is much better for me than 10 stripes for some things

As I can´t submit a filter to the FF Library here I upload it to the forum

This is for FF 4.0

This is the most simple and easy version I could do although keeping also some of the simple rotations and flip

25 PRESETS

Is included 20 presets with examples of what I thought it can be done in different ways

IMPORTANT: This is NOT AT ALL the same filter as the 10 Images or Photo Stripes Mix as is very different built and does not have the same things and you can´t mix the stripes.

Please see below for this explanation made with images

Later on following posts will put also examples of variations of the stripes using different added components to the above filter or using the results of this filters with other filters

WHY 11 STRIPES IS BETTER THAN 10 SOMETIMES?

When making the first10 stripes filter I found that it is not always good to have only 10 stripes, as for some posibles designs, it would need 11

For example if you are using only 2 images and want to distribute them alternatively on the stripes, it will not work right as you need 5 stripes of one and 6 stripes for the other

In the example above can´t see well the 3 stripes example, but here I have made another example that shows it better with 9 stripes with 3 similar tones each one and 2 stripes with different color

So here is balanced with the 9 inner stripes with 3 tones each and 2 outer colors, and in the 10 stripes colors you can´t have this

I know that one of the orange is really yellow and not an orange tone, but is similar in some way

5th EXAMPLE

Another design that shows that using 11 stripes gives a balanced and good design is like this below where you have one central stripe and then 5 stripes on each side in different sizes

7TH example similar to the above but using 6 image stripes and 5 color alternative stripes that would not be possible with 10 stripes

And here is the same design BUT with 1100x600 resolution that shows that the stripes are wider and you can have the same 11 stripes but showing more of the photos

Nice work! I saw the redesign of your filter. I smiled The construction is a signature "SpaceRay style". I see what you did there! But you made it work. Awesome!

Now for all the more challenging things!

As I have said above, this filter is different from the original 10 stripes version, and the main difference is that all the stripes are made INDIVIDUALLY so they can be used separately if wanted instead of the previous filter that was grouped in 2 groups of five.

So as you can use the stripes separately you can apply effects and components to EACH ONE of the stripes INDEPENDENTLY.

And this opens a wide potential for using these stripes in many different possible ways

You could use filter editor to apply graphics effects to EACH ONE of the stripes and modify the colors, texture, distortion, border, and almost any thing you could think of in a INDIVIDUALLY and separately way for each one of the 11 stripes

I have already though to make a complex filter that will allow to make this having many different controls for EACH ONE of the 11 stripes

with other 5 different stripes and smaller size

In some way this remembers me to the Matrix movie effects

And the 3 examples above are using stripes without any rotation, so what happens if you rotate them with the bomber rotation and rotation chaos?

All the ones above are using the original source colors already given to the stripes and showing it without any different color effect or tinting

And what would happen if I replace the alphabet font letters from my Alphabet Texture Creator Extended with 5 of these stripes and use the source color overlay?

and with another configuration kaleidoscope settings and different stripes

same kaleidoscope settings but different bomber settings

IMAGE PRINTED OVER ICE CREAM STICKS

Maybe you have seen already how Ice cream sticks look like and that as shown in the link there is a whole artistic world around colored ice cream sticks to make art with them.

Well, I go even further and I apply images over the stripes with corners setting at 100 and then control the stripes individually or in groups to get this effects shown below

There are 14 new posts above with examples made with the stripes and variations of the original filter uploaded above

To go to the new first post of these 14 you only have to click in this link

Is where is put As I have said above, this filter is different from the original 10 stripes version, and the main difference is that all the stripes are made INDIVIDUALLY so they can be used separately if wanted instead of the previous filter that was grouped in 2 groups of five.

will keep putting more examples with different ways to use the individual stripes or grouped and also using the stripes results to feed other FF filters

Skybase I'm incredibly distracted by your giant "in your face" watermarks.

Sorry that I have made those "giant" watermarks, but the reason for making them is explained now in your own thread Regarding watermarks

I personally do not see such a huge problem seeing the examples I have put above, these are NOT artworks and they are not something to be shown in full to be able to know what is about, they are ONLY examples of what I have done with the filter I uploaded above and what possible results you could get if you use them with bomber or kaleidoscope components, what is under the watermark is nearly the same as you can see in others parts of the image.

I do not see a problem seeing the example right and how it is intended for.

And with less depth and perspective

There above you really can´t see the stripes and details and how the bomber is mixing the stripes so here below I have two other examples showing a closer detail of a 6000x6000 image.

This here is the top left part of the above image

USING STRIPES RESULTS AS SOURCE FOR OTHER FF FILTERS
--------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------

Here after I do not use the filter editor to make the following examples, I just have taken the 11 stripes results that is shown in the 3D landscape smudge examples here above and have loaded it inside other FF filters

Here in this one I have used the Camera Perspectiva by Morgantao to make a room with 5 duplicated images of the same stripes

Then after I have used the lovely and excellent Smooth Mosaic Stones by Uberzev to make this other one that only shows the stripes as color source and not showing the real stripes shape.

and here is using the Mode 7

And with the same filter and using mode 2 and rising the shape size to 20 it will show many more of the 11 stripes I have used as source
