----You're welcome of course. smile:) (Even if I don't really remember being all that helpful ha-ha.)
----The forums are alright, a bit tame around here, and pretty slow in building up members, but lots of forums have a zillion zombie lurkers, and usually it's like 1/2 of 1% of the registered folks who actually post once or twice a week. Kinda makes the U.S.'s usual (approx) 38% voting turn out look not too shabby in comparison ha-ha. smile:D

Thankyou jffe and StevieJ smile:) - voting is compulsory here [ I don't no whether it's a better system, either way you get a pollitican smile:D ] and obviously unfortunatly you can't make it compulsory to talk in the forums - there must be a way to encourage the people who have an opinion to join in - there must be some out there who could be coached out of lurking.
62% not voting does mean they just hand over there future to others to decide, surely that defeats the meaning of a democracy,and opens the system to corruption even only on the demographics of who votes. I reckon if it wasn't compulsory here we'd have exactly the same turn out to vote.

+2 That has to be one of the best things about FF.....doesn't matter if you are a programmer or someone who knows nothing about computers.....just click, drag, and connect the dots.....and you're on your way..... smile:D Well, maybe not that easy, but once you start, it's a quick learning curve.....

Cool! Congratulations, Carl. smile:)
I also really appreciate the FF team for their efforts and awesome product. (!!!)
But that there also seem to be very creative/clever filter makers and posters here just makes things that much better.
I feel bad that I haven't expressed my admiration every time I come across things that impress me here (as I often run into time crunches). But I do hope people keep sharing their ideas and more people continue to join in...

Of course, let us thank you in turn Carl for contributing so much to the Filter Forge community, both in your wonderful filters and on the forums ^_^ It's been a true joy to have you around! Congratulations on receiving your copy of Filter Forge, you've more than earned it!

I completely agree with you StevieJ! That's why I love Filter Forge, it's confusing for about half an hour, and then the next thing you know, you're dreaming about procedural paths the next day, ahahaha ^_^.

Congratz Carl! Outta curiosity, which 5 filters made it? smile:D

I'm looking forward to try your Atmosphere filter too, I've been looking for really moody photo-enhancers and it looks like just the ticket!
I'm enjoying using Filter Forge to create http://torley.com/textures

Thanks Torley - luckly you only need 3 highs to get free copy - [ I've actually got 4] - the funny thing is that a couple of those were not ones I would have predicted - for the record they are - Shadow and Light - Intensafier - Abstraction Painter Pop Art - and the real surprise, Floral [ Hawian Shirt ] Wallpaper.
I noticed that you contribution to ff goes much deeper than making filters and you deservedly received your free copy - and being probly the last person in ff to realize that you have a very talented sister I can only imagine the creative energy in your house - cheers Torley smile:) ............. Carl smile:)

Who is Torley's sister?
I was surprised he has no library submitted filters. But I think he's in good company, as one of my all time favorites is gunsan -- who also has none (if I recall correctly).

By the way, Carl, your Atmosphere filter does seem to have some potential... smile:)

I'm surprised gunsan doesn't give it a fiddle if only to suit own needs, maybe he doesn't have time.

Atmosphere still needs some refinements, I've tried many different approaches to getting a gothic type feel this ones been the closest but certainly can be improved.

Thanks ssamm.............. Carl smile:)

Zephos is his sister? That's cool. She's a freak'n genius from the filters I've seen.

(BTW, for some reason I thought of gunsan as being female. I don't know why -- so I could be wrong... (and total apologies to gunsan if I am wrong.))
