The gifs produced by the kaleidoscope script can be 10s of megabytes in size which run ok on my 10 year old computer, but to keep the file size down on gimp chat I had to scale the pixel width and height in the example below, and only reproduced the first 20 of 180 frames.

If you wish to see the full effect or make your own kaleidoscope gif the two .scm scripts are here

EDIT the kaleidoscope file is on the next post
you will find them at "<Image>/File/Create/Patterns/"

Run the reflection script on this image

(Number of reflections 2) it produces a symmetrical image, then run the kaleidoscope script on the symmetrical image.

Thanks for looking

Steve

Ps 1. I considered combining the scripts but it would reduce a users options, and the reflection script could be used for other purposes

Ps 2. when using the reflection script the option (Number of reflections) rises exponentially, its best to use small numbers till you see how it works

Ps 3. Though I’ve succeeded on simpler scripts I tried and failed on both scripts to get the image to open as a new image
