Wow; this one's pretty cool Mahvin. Still playing with the demo. $12 doesn't seem much but won't guarantee buying it since I've been a little leary of online purchases of late. :)

I have a credit card I use just for online purchases. These days you set up $ alerts on your cards, which I have done.

You can also send a money order check via mail if you want. He has his address listed on the website.

I did send him an email asking him if he could add other file formats to his program, other than jpg, simply because it would be better anyway.

FYI: Also, for anyone just now trying out the software: there is a small triangle at the top left of the viewer, use your mouse cursor to position that triangle anywhere on the image, that view is what gets reflected in the image.

I just wish the triangle was sizable (i.e., could be made bigger). Still creating tesselations using this program is extremely fun. :)

I am partial to Kaleider. I haven't had a chance to put it on my Win 7 machine, but I will be re-installing it today or tomorrow. It gives you full control of the triangle size, too. I will some of my images from it.

Kaleider looks pretty cool PM, but the controls are more complex then I really wanted to deal with. Still cool that you can control all kinds of aspects and do some weird warping effects as well. Thanks for the info. :)

Kaleider didn't install via Wine. Oh well. I was only looking for simplicity, anyways. Thanks for the tip, PM.

willy download again usually don't work, except if you have a really good unistaller that can detect and revert any change created by the program.

That is not easy because often the relevant change is not done when installing but after :
the first time you start the program
