An abstract from green leaves
Uploaded: February 09, 2008
I made this abstract from a photo I made last summer (to see it, go to the comments of this photo). I used Gimp to do it: at first I added blinds (parallel white lines bothe vertically and horizontally), then I used the bumpmap effect to add slight texture and finally the fractal trace effect 2 times in a row.

You've got the process down to an art! but... I'm afraid I have no idea about "Gimps" "bunmaps" or "fractals" - I'm reminded of when I was a child and we went to Pier Point Landing in Long Beach California... They had this booth where you could splash paint on a spinning card and come up with cool absract pictures. Your's is by far even "cooler" - :-) #5468844Tiia Vissak February 09, 2008
Thanks!You can download Gimp from www.gimp.org (it is completely free). The other things I mentioned are effects of Gimp I used (so, theoretically, you could use these and make something like I made (but you'd have to play with different settings).
