Those do look cool Erison; alas, I'm too lazy to actually make these so I let Resynthesizer do the work for me. :)

Strangely enough, I thought that was a photo. How on earth do you do that?

Cool that I fooled you Erisian; no, I'm not from Mars (sort of an inside joke; lol). Click link below should lead to other links or do a site search here for crop circles. I also do corn mazes by the way. :)

Here you go Erisian; didn't feel like starting another topic. Wish I could find a bigger Corn Maze same to make a better template for Resynthesizer. :)

Cool Rod, but I would like a larger corn crop; the sample I have now (does not have to seamless; that's the beauty of Resynthesizer) looks too much like grass but trust me, it's a sample from a corn field I found online. :)

Cool maze! I had a go at a Mandelbrot but it wasn't very successful. I'll have another go.

It's pretty much all Resynthizer Zward; if you read through the thread below, I believe there is enough information to do this for yourself. :)

Out of interest, I live in Swindon (England) and I was lucky enough to visit a crop circle near Silbury Hill, about 12 miles south of Swindon. Not much to look at, but a talking point.

I've seen some very elaborate ones from various TV shows on them; I still believe it's all hoaxes, but still, it had to take not only extreme planning, but an amazing amount of coordinated man power to create the very huge fantastic ones. But you never know if there is some alien being influencing the creation of these. lol

I remain agnostic but I don't believe that aliens are doing it. I think there are a lot of hoaxes but I've seen a video of one being formed and I haven't a clue how it happened. It's very strange stuff!

I'm pretty sure I know what video you are talking about. I still think it's some elaborate computer work of course (skeptic I am; lol). :)

Yep - that's the one. Could well be done on a computer.

Of course, who's to say that there isn't a future entity who's actually just playing on his/her father's computer and we all are just a continually running simulations (that's not my idea by the way; saw this one on Through the Wormhole). The crop circle could have been created in some future version of GIMP and Resynthesizer (assuming film GIMP {Cinepaint}and the GIMP get merged once again, and 128 bit per color channel editing of course). lol
