Ready for testing


Gmic "Psychedelic Glasswork" by PhotoComiX, on Flickr

The filter has 4 modulo :

1) "Stained Glass"
identical to the Stained Glass filter but for a extra option
"White Separators "(= "Double invertion" see viewtopic.php?f=11&t=1413)
"White Separators " don't change only the separator color, may work well on some images much less with other


2) "Layer Fx"
All Layer Fx could be switched off or on
To switch off chose last option from the dropdown list "Skip Merging" ( or set Opacity to 0 )

3) Quick Adjustment
allow to apply on the fly with default setting Contrast Mask and/or Local Normalization


4) "Mirrors Control"
Also this module may be switched off or on (from "Activate Mirrors ")
If enabled will add mirror effects (identical to what offered by the "mirror array" filter)

Feedback highly appreciated !

PS
Be aware of the very last option:
may multiply image size beyond immagination !!
(if you increase the value for "Iteration", if not will "only" double or quadruplicate image size, )

Oh, I didn't have the new filter. I do now.

Here is my double-inverted image (I turned off the mirroring).

Wow O.. a big claque for the first tester

Looks fine, as the name hints the filter should "psychedelize" yet your image is quite readable

Here is mine after running SpyroGimp

One more with a full spectrum gradient back ground.

Oh i couldnt resist -
Another with desaturation applied and all the white removed.
Then i applied a full spectrum gradient set at radial for a back ground. Interesting results.
I also saved this one (without the full spectrum background), as a pattern.



Without the background -

Who'd have thought to use spyrogimp? Great idea Rod. I nabbed your pattern. It will make a great texture, too.

Thanks O.
It isn't tile-able you will have to fix that if you want it seamless.

Great spider web effect!

Very nice O i like the colurs



Tileable or not everything could become tileable thank to the the Magick Mirrror included ...you may get not just one several symmetric tiles even from that spider

Tile



Other tile (Much variants possible )




TILED



When is mirrored along both XY axes everything acquire vertical and horizzonthal symmetry

Thanks PC.

Here's one with the spider mirrored.

wow..

we are in perfect syncronicity:
this is what i was going to post bedore see your message popping out (at soon i pressed the submit button)

and you just did something close !



What you think to the idea to add the option to run a preset before the mirrors option ?

I was thinking too a dropdown "Fx" list with

1 Contrast mask (default)
2 Local Normalization (default)
3 A Graphic Novel preset
4 another GN preset
5 a Graphic Boost preset
6 another GB preset

again the preset doesn't need to be installed as preset, the option will allow just run the equivalent filter with that hardcoded setting

I think that would be most cool.

So do i PC!

Ok i will try ..very carefully (for fear to break what , more or less by miracle, now works )

soon back...hopefully

Be back in a few with some results Guys


This was some Render I had lying around and for some reason it brought back to life the Little Tag thingy the guy added to it (yes they are supposed to be erased)

No mirroring yet though, didn't like the look with the Wolf

Your wolf is really cool, Willy.

I wish the Background would have turned out better, but anyway PC your script can bring back things I have erased and Saved over somehow... Talented I Must say

Rod, I tried a spyrogimp one and used a gradient to color the spyrogimp lines, then overlayed it onto a gradient.

That looks really cool, and a bit creepy at the same time there O
