Dec.23rd, 2007 Well, it is still raining and wind is strong to blow off a photographer! Here is a quick tutorial about creating these patterns; you might find a better way. 1. I really took a picture! you can find it in this gallery 2. I made it as pretty as I could, then I applied a "stereo" effect. It basically spit the color channels side by side. This is the secret to get colors, otherwise you can skip this step. 3. Now, let the fun begin and apply the "kaleidoscope" effect to the source image. Simple isn't it? You can create zillons of different patterns, I must have made hundreds of them and they never look the same. Btw, I use Picture Window Pro 4 to do all this but I am sure you can use anyone of them. Enjoy! --JY
