Hi,
The first image is how the filter displays on the filter's website and the second image is how I expect it to display. The reason I expect it to display like the second image is that is how the first preset is set and also how the filter was saved. What determines how the image will be rendered for the website?

Thanks for the time,
Ron

DOH! I think I figured it out. I think I am a day behind. Nevermind...

The new one will post tomorrow smile:(

Sorry, I will try to be more careful.

It's always either the seamless tiling checkbox, or the size,pixels setting, those darn pixels still trick me sometimes ha-ha. smile:D

The web generates the images dynamically from the filter....it really make my "Native art" filter look overly simplistic, when it was actually pretty cool looking in the presets LOL

----Well, if you have the seamless tiling box checked, and size,pixels set to 600, then your presets should show up on the FF webpage exactly as you made them, and assuming you made 9, otherwise it will hit random for you for the remainder of the 9 example presets. smile:)

yeah...I learned very quick to make all my own presets LOL

I didnt know about that seamless thing though (though not all tiles work well seamless). I will keep that in mind

and i think the seamless thing only gets rendered by the website in texture types, not image types.
If wishes were horses... there'd be a whole lot of horse crap to clean up!

Thanks,

You're right. I don't know what to do. If the users cannot see the interaction between the two noises then it's just a vanilla pattern. What should I do? smile:cry:

ron there's good news and there bad news - the good news I haven't give up - the bad news I haven't fixed it - tryed many approaches and can get some interesting results but none that emulates the same effect, I don't know of any filter that is demolished as badly from the tilling as this one -you can get sudo effects similar but that particular layering is lost - maybe some one else reading this can have a crack at it - it's a challenge, and I might be missing a simple solution.
Sorry to disappoint you ron smile:cry: I'll keep trying smile:)

Hi Carl – I can’t thank you enough to taking a look at this. I failed to consider, or even notice, the tiling limitations inherent with some filters.

filter that is demolished


I really thought I had a winner with this one, I liked playing with it and I could hardly wait to post it, but now I’m embarrassed by it. If it can’t be fixed are there uses for a non-tiling pattern? What is the procedure for removing unwanted filters?
I'm really on a roll - that's three rejects in a row. smile:evil: smile:blush: smile:dead:

Hey ron I found a very simple way to almost give the same effect - you'll kick your self when you see the solution cause I kicked myself for not going back and picking up a simple thing - as I say it not the exactly the same result but you might think it's close enough - keep smiling smile:D

Unbelievable!! smile:D smile:beer: smile:D I never would have found that! It is very little price to pay for so much gain. I owe you big time Carl.
It took me a while to run it down. The first thing I *had* to do was put the components back in order. It's impossible for me to think otherwise.
I have never had an editor before – it’s very cool. I hope you let me return the favor some day – not that I’m qualified. I have had my work audited before. I can tell you one thing – if you are the reason several lawyers in suits are sitting around a big table – you had better be right. I was. smile:pimp: If you ever want to collaborate on a filter let me know – I’m your man.
smile:ff: smile:banana:

BTW, which of your filters is your favorite - the one you are most proud of?

Thats a tuffy, let see well - best upgraded filter would have to be Light and Shadow mainly cause originally the shadows sat on the surface of the image, but I managed to work out a displacement snippet that allowed the shadows to wrap around the object within the pic. Which I then used in Pryromaniac to get the flames to wrap.I guess Atmosphere and Abstraction Painter series, Pryro and xplode are my favorites.
What about you Ron what's your favorite smile:?:

Glad I could help with your filter smile:beer: cheers smile:D

[Light and Shadow] [Pryromaniac] [Atmosphere and Abstraction Painter series][Pryro and xplode are my favorites]


LOL! That's about 1fourteen filters! smile:D You're favorite filter is fourteen filters! smile:D

It's really really hard to cut it down to one smile;)

I have looked a little at a few and will try to get to more later tonight.

My favorite? - I don't know... technically, I guess reposition rays or resize/crop/move. Aesthetically they all fall short - but I'm learning!
