Had to try he4rty's red satin enviromap. top one using the V1 bottom one using Flat

A tip of the hat:

Looks like candy. Click on it for the full effect:

yummy

Thanks Molly. I may do a tut for that one. I think I remember what I did. Very easy to do. Of course, Bevel Reflect Logo does most of the work, haha.

every once in a while, one of my projects don't work right. If I can't find out why, like there is a selection or something, then I just shut down gimp and reboot it up. That seems to fix just about everything for me.
looking at your screen cap, I notice that you do not have wireframe nor update live preview boxes ticked.

molly: last post of yours - is it in the wrong thread, by any chance?
i love the effect you got with he4rty's red satin sphere!

warrior: wow, do write that tutorial, i love the colourful look of that text!

Thanks. I need to go through the process again. It was so easy though.

oooops sorry AnMal wasn't thinking, too late in the day.

A few more:

Tux, I used your blue plastic map and colorized them to red and green, works really great.

@Warrior - Those new designs look great!

@Molly - I did the same thing with that map, except I hue shifted instead of colorizing, which I thought did a better job of keeping the keeping the subtle color changes of the original.

Thanks GT, appreciate it.

I kind of like that effect:

I haven't had much luck with this. Most of what I've made with it seems to need lots of work to make the edges look smooth. You're doing great with it.

As far as edges go, I use the stock settings. Always have.

Well that sounds nice, but now the scripts dialog has even more stuff that I can't see to be able to us.
This is most frustrating to me.
It's a nice script, but if it's dialog gets any bigger what can we do?

Looks great Tux but I never have much luck trying to figure that hue shifting stuff. I guess I better read up on it

EDIT: Just tried it, worked great. With mine, I colorized your blue plastic and renamed it before running the script, but this way is much better not to have so many different maps in my map-sphere folder. Thanks

Use the new Scrolling Script-Fu Interface. This is the reason I modified it to scroll.

As far as edge aliasing, I've included an edge smoothing option in the script. When combined with this technique, very smooth edges can be achieved.
