Thats cool Drac, didn't use the script similar to your one you posted execpt I used plasma clouds then pixelise, desaturate, posturise then map to palatte and finally I played with the sobel edge detect to get the different height bevels.

Whoa! Map to Palette? Man have I got some es-pera-mintin' to do! This palette thing is starting to look better and better. Thanks for the tip.

he4rty: that's a really cool pattern! i have to try that myself

draconian: that too is a cool effect and has to be tried. now good luck with your map to palette-ing

I've been playing around with this as my lastest wallpaper on my laptop.
The background pattern I created after watching a TV documentary about Myanmar (Burma) which showed their traditional dress called "longyi" a sarong-like garment. This was one pattern that caught my eye.

I like my PC wallpaper rather bland... In fact I had been using the default Ubuntu wallpaper for the last two years, but then about when I was going to find a new motocycle-oriented wallpaper for my smartphone I was made aware of this guy on flickr who publishes drawings of historic race bikes so I downloaded a bunch and gave them a blueprint look for the phone, and it looked so nice I did the same for the PC:

b10h4z4rd - Thats really nice.

Ofnuts - Cool Idea really like the effect.

Didn't do a real lot to get this. Made it from a wattle photo. Quite impressed with the other ones I've seen here

b10h4z4rd: that's so cool! i love the combination of pattern and colours. and i am most definitely going to check up burmese traditional clothing .
ofnuts: that flickr link was great, i found a ducati like the one my brother used to own, so now i'm making a ducati wallpaper for him .
sallyanne: i'm a fan of that kind of pattern - reminds me a bit of the ones i used to make in silicon mirror.

i love biohazard's wallpaper
the patterns remind me of the crazy costumes from DeepSpace9

ofnuts wallpaper is even more to my liking
love the blueprint style !!
did you render all those bikes or just put the blue layer on a certain layermode or something else ??

just had to post the one i'm currently using:

b10h4z4rd - Sallyanne - Anmal - I love them all. I especially like your's b10h4z4rd. How long did that take to make?

Thanks

Today's efforts, WIP.

As you can see on the link the original drawings are black on white, so I just did:
- "Color-to-alpha" on the white
- Add a bit more contrast on the Alpha channel
- Alpha-lock, and bucket-fill with white
- Add blue layer below

made a few years ago, but this is my current one...

b10h4z4rd: - i really liked those! especially the colourful one.

nzdawghaus: that's cool! the perspective makes a great effect.

really nice wallpapers, heres another i use frpm time to time

he4rty:great piece - very creative!

oh that's beautiful, alc59!
