You're very welcome Wallace. At least one of these produced the iridescent image I posted a few nights ago.

Thanks for the maps...but now I have created a slight problem! I need to go through all my maps, round and flat, and rename or re-organize so that I can easily and quickly find what I want!

You're welcome. That's what I do too, usually, is name them so I can remember what's what. I haven't had a chance to name them yet, so I did the easy thing and named them numerically.

This map works rather well. Original:

@2-ton. I have mine separated into two different folders. One folder is called Sphere-emaps and the other folder is Flat-emaps. That helps some.
Here is one I made out of Warriors image into a flat map with some with some supernova added. Thanks for the image Warrior

with added contrast and curves

You're very welcome. I need to get my maps organized one of these days. I probably have way too many, but, nice to have if you need it.

I separate my E-Maps by color.

Thanks for all the maps guys. Cool and unique way to do this Warrior. Thanks for sharing. I tried some text for an emap.
Here is the white on black text to sphere map. The sphere is then blurred by 25 or so and after the BRL run resharpened at 99 and 1.76.


I ran BRL with a max font size "Ariel Bold" and used the new sphere as a map.


Results after unsharp mask with above settings.

Very nice Rod. It's amazing what one can come up with. Some I think will be awesome don't really work that well, and ones I don't expect much from do. Lots of fun trying out all the new maps.
