Why I love Filter Forge

Since I'm very concerned with the things to come with FF, although I hope they aren't going to have any real impact on me, I thought I would share a whole different side to what Filter Forge can be used for. I currently design in the world of digital scrapbooking. It's not very large yet, but has grown exponentially in the past few years. I'm not the only designer that uses FF, although I think I use it more than anyone else that I know of that uses it.

These pictures are quick previews of a current project that I'm working on. It's not quite finished yet but will be after the paper I'm working on is done rendering.

Every piece, from the background papers to the individual items, have been touched by FF in some way...some completely done in FF and some are images with FF applied over them. In some instances, I love the default presets so much, when I create a background paper, sometimes it does go unchanged but if I do use a default, it is never alone and is never sold in any context of "texture packs." They are designed and used for 12x12 background papers for personal digital scrapbook pages.

Thanks for looking and I hope the filter designers here can see how useful your filters truly are and how much they are appreciated, at least by me.




I should add that as I made each piece, I wrote down each filter used and who made it. These credits will be included in me terms of use file.

nikki, those are great, and like steve, i like the second one best. very creative on both!

Nikki, your stuff is looking beautiful

I doubt that if any changes happen they'll impact you
