I love that beer teapot. Excellent idea reversing the layer order. I was also thinking of doing that, but hadn't come up with an interesting effect yet. Maybe a lava lamp or something...

Here's my quick beer test from one of my images.

Hello,

Cheers... i like the bubbles effect..

The new option "Reverse the animation" is now in the updated script.

I have tried a lot of combinations before obtaining the Lava Lamp effect :



Settings using simple Brush 2. Hardness 025, on a 600 x 840 picture, resized after cool effect :



Have fun.

Yeah, it works well, thanks.

And here is my attempt at a lava lamp.

Wow, great lava lamps and beer JimmyMarco and racer-x

Thank you for the updated script JimmyMarco

Great looking gifs, the Harley pint is awesome. I'm just waiting when the foam will settle down...
Thanks for the update and lava lamp settings JimmyMarco.

JimmyMarco, you did a great job on this script. I will definitely use it on occasion. Release the balloons..

Wallace, please tell me what it is?

Probably best to use just one layer in this case..

Hello,

@racer-x... wow... i like lava effect and balloons... great...

@Wallace : Don't forget the original script is designed to use "Bristels 03"... a brush having little spaced dots .

When you use a "block" like the asteroid, brushes are too side by side... not enough space between them.

Tips : create you own brush : on another transparent image, paint some asteroids, select few of them and copy... use copy-board as brush :



Never use 5 frames... it's too small 5 x 5 pixels : here the smallest brush is 30 (frames) x 3 (1st brush size) = 90 pixels
Size difference = 2 x 30 = 60 pixels
So : First layer : 90 x 90 ... Second : 150 x 150 ... Third : 210 x 210



Have fun.

Nice asteroids everyone

Thanks for the explanations JimmyMarco

Wallace, I was confused by brush sizes originally but got it from JimmyMarco's explanation in post #24. Made this note to remember it:

Smallest brush size = Frames Number * First brush size
Brush size increase = Frames number * Size difference
Smallest scroll = First brush size
Next scroll = Smallest scroll + Size difference

What I did with your brush was to make a new layer and add asteroids in various sizes. I then copied that layer to clipboard and used the clipboard image for the brush and used just one layer in the script. It's often a hit or miss and you need to experiment.

Relax and have a beer on me...

It is because of the Teapot and Racer-X animations (great idea and great workmanship) that I will always have such an association:
falling snow = drink beer
So since the script can do a lot more than its name says it can change the name (even if only in menu): Falling snow ... to: Falling snow ETC ... or better Falling brush ...
In any case, everyone can name whatever they want (just use a text editor)...

"etc" = Latin phrase: et cetera

Hello,

MareroQ... you are right... in the description, "(or other brush)" is already written in the 4 or 5 last versions.

It's time to change the script title in "Falling snow or other brush..."

As i like the fishes made by teapot, i have tried my own version using self built brush :



Settings used :



...

And the picture used to add by select and copy to Clip-board brush :



And the deep sea picture found on the web.



Have fun.
