This is really great!! Everyone has such nice creations and have added their own spin to it.
Tin: You have it all in your script. The folds are perfect, and you have the perspective in there so I don't have to worry about forgetting it! You even did the shadow. Thank you for the time you have spent on this. I will use it often.

updated script to allow user set the Shear Magnitude Y Percentage (height %), 15% is default.
instead of Shear Magnitude Y in pixels

if you want a script to help you with this animation.

It'll be available under Script-Fu/Create New/Map Fold Animate

It'll create i think from 5 percent to 30 percent (5 percent increments) frames....
I just had to delete the original layer (bottom most layer) then removed alpha channels on all layers and made copies of the layers to animate the reverse direction.

Tin, you are up there with the greatest. Thank you so much.

TIN - I got a strange result on one of my attempts today and could not understand why the folds were not equal in size. So I had a quick look at your script and worked out why

- although my target was 'selected', I had some transparency on both sides of my target image.

So, I concluded that If the image which is the subject of the 'map fold' script does not occupy the full width of the canvas, then the folds will be based on the canvas width not the selected image width ... once realised, I think this is becomes a 'feature' not a 'bug' ...

Example OK

With transparency on each side

let's leave it at "feature" hehe

Been spying the thread; kudos for this one Tran.

A very nice and useful script, thank you for taking the time to write it

Animating it gave a strange output though

Tran and Odin: really neat animation effects!
