Islam , as some Cristian groups in the past, forbid the representation of God , and of whatever God may have created Now this is usually enforced only within the Holy places, but is the reason why Islam visual art was focused on decoration , decorative patterns, and calligraphic artworks and why they excelled in that fields |

Just as a slightly related topic, I like Taprats and it does a pretty good job at creating variations to this theme. http://taprats.sourceforge.net/ |

Hi Mr. Rod Few days ago I posted this image in Metal and Glass post. Today by chance I came across you this old post. Attachment: Islamic Design GT BEVEL.jpg [ 57.28 KiB | Viewed 5063 times ] But I also like you plastic-frame like effect. Would you kindly mention the filters/tools used in your design manipulation. |

Wish I had seem this thread earlier - took me ages to get the paths right for this one; took a few liberties with it in the end and diverged from the style somewhat -

There are more files for islamic design. The only thing, I don't like is that the Islamic-Design and the islamic-pattern11 tabs stretch out the workspace. Is there a way to improve the script so the work space isn't so large? I really like the scripts and I had removed them from my scripts folder once before because of the distortion of my workspace. Sadly, I am not a coder so I wouldn't know what to do to improve on the problem. Is there someone willing to improve the problem? I would really like to use the scripts, but I can't.   Edit: New post here: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=942&start=20 Thanks Rod!

I used glossy 3d stroke. It's another filter add-on. Just search it here at Gimp Chat. I am on my cell right now so I can't attach it here at the moment. You could probably also use Graechan shine filter also available here. |

The Islamic tiles are called Girih tiles and there is a Wikipedia article on them. |

Hi Mr. Oldmangrumpy Your last two metallaic designs are really close to reality in their metallic look and have clear details. Wonderful. Hi Mr. Greachan Excellent manipulation. I have tried to use 'Frame Factory' script and it has produced wonderful results. Attachment: Frame Factory.png [ 611.75 KiB | Viewed 2429 times ] Initially I tried to give Chrome Effect to Islamic Calligraphy but then made it translucent to give it plastic effect. I don't know that whether I am successful. Background desing is painted glass effect which I have already posted in this forum. |

 Will try another one later.  |

Is there a coder here willing to look at my post (#12) and improve the scripts to where the work space users are using, isn't distorted? I'd really like to use the scripts but I can't. |
