Craig's brainchild....he'll have to make the call.....but if done, I would suggest going with photo-realistic....

the fabric roll looks good, a few ripples through it would make it more fabric like, rather than rigid like a roll of paper

And a variation.

And this...

I used this picture from CGTextures as a raw model.

And a darker one;-)

totte, i think you're closer to the tree rings with the first two. stick the whole in a frames and use the corners and inner/outer frame to define the outside area. and i think you could do the splitting/cracking with the depth side of a surface filter.

Here are one new version with another bump type.

And on with AO only for cracks.

Filter just accepted

stick a portrait on them and you've got roman coins! nice

hey cool you've worked out how to make your own money

Sorry there, you need at least the minimum basic version to run it. Why not just purchase the cheapest sneakversion, and later on upgrade?

Oh shoot! I would buy the basic, but it doesn't support .png - and the transparent background was one of the coolest things about those frames. (In addition to not having any extra money -- I had to buy a new hard drive -- it just came this week. It didn't say in the product description, but it was OEM. No directions, no SATA cable, and my computer didn't have ONE single solitary extra screw! How do you say "nightmare" in Swedish?

Ronjonnie, Not yet. Between the Windows 7 upgrade and the need for a new hard drive, I didn't have the time or space to fool with it.

I was just hoping I could snag a dozen of those frames without having the program.

Thanks!

Hi Lime,

Good luck to you with all of that.

Don't hesitate to ask Customer Support, for that extension, once you are up & running. I know for a fact that they will give you one, unless the policy has changed, which I doubt. The Pro version beats the Basic version!! I have both.


Hey Totte,

Those are some super Cool posts you have there!! Love them!

Later,
Ron

Been playing with an overlooked bathroom floors filter..

Hey Totte:
Those wall bits look great! A couple ideas for you;

1) Have you checked out my 'generic window maker' filter? http://www.filterforge.com/filters/8221.html Would be a cool thing to add. Note: same technique could also work for doors, or for making other column / beam shapes.

2) A lot of medieval timber construction used curved beams, sort of mimicing the gothic pointed arch. Gothic Arch Image

3)You may have already seen this. There are certain grid configurations which are tilable: (More useful for your floors)

STOP SPAMMING MY THREAD!!!!
GMM The above post is spam and you have my permission to torch that Melissa Daisy user with the new filter I'm working on!

Kraellin, because then I wont find the thread when I'm tired

First, it's simple, dissect any filter that looks good, learn from the masters. I learned a lot from Crapadilla, Mike Blackney and some others when I started.

Second, try try and try again. Aim for something, like a photo of a texture, and brak down that photo in your head into components, for example stone, wood, damage, dirt, cloth or whatever you have on it, then isolate each of those elements, make a filter that can produce that look. Then take the next, and the next. Soon you will know each of those by heart.

Third, now look at that image again, analyze this time how those elements mix, and try to create that mixing using noises and thresholds or blends. Now you can take your materials and mix them together for you final filter.
