Not sure what it's like.
Pretty nifty how it uses path curves to draw though.
I downloaded it and a few of the other programs available there.
Now i need to play with it more. :lol

I did notice some onsite tutorials and checked out a couple.Complicated program it seems.

Neat find Ana.
Thanks.

Well I finally had some time to play with it some. Very unfriendly interface to say the least and I'm still trying to figure things out. Did create this diddy though (inverted colors in GIMP since I haven't figured out how to change colors yet; lol). :)

Thanks Ana; figured out how to do the sinusoidal now, but still, this program is one of the most unfriendly programs I've ever played with (guess why that is how it got it's name; lol). A lot of folk left some negative comments concerning this too. lol

The problem with the built in editor is the path's just too small. Ported the curve file in Excel and multiplied each value by 4 and put it back into a curve file and opened the curve file in the program to stroke with sinusoid. Need to figure out how to do the colors and such, but not I'm more then purturbed with this not ready for prime time program. lol

Now this program is perking my interest more. Figuring out how to change a few parameters like number os sampling points (steps) and this popped up. :)

Now that I figured out a few things, this is going to be quite addicting. Man, though agony to figure out, this is one of the coolest programs for making colored smoke that I've run across. If you don't recognize the pattern (I don't blame you; lol), it's the one used for the pumpkin carving earlier (had to draw in some connections to make it a single pattern). :)

Thanks for the vote of confidence Ana, but I have to admit, I was about to give up when I couldn't figure out how to create a curve. Very non-intuitive, but I happen to accidently on purpose click Set Curve option on the Points dialogue window and then I was able to paste the curve. I was using Excel to expand the size of size the curve, but now I just resize the result but even that is non-intuitive (the smaller the number the larger the curve; lol). This guy really wants to you experience agony in order to use his prgram no doubt. lol
