omino snakes
use a mask path to bend a layer! push it along the path to get rippling snake motion.
really breaks the ice at parties.
omino colorizer
this filter merely applies a color across the entire frame. this turns out
to be astonishingly useful... for some reason, it seemed i was always creating a solid
with mode multiply. but it does a little more, with settings for additive (light) or
subtractive (ink). has parameter to choose to draw the result in all remaining colors, just the
colorizing color, or greys.
easy recipe: apply additive-colorizing for cyan, magenta, yellow, and
a mild grey to the same source movie. composite using darken-mode. darken like ink. lastly apply noise and jitter. instant newspaper
flipbook fun. serves 4 to 6.
omino kaleidoscope
this filter models a kaleidoscope whose mirrors are in any shape you like. built-ins provide square, triangle, and a few others. but you can also use any mask as the mirror shape. it is a kind of two dimensional ray-tracer, actually. neato, eh? omino diffusion
an error diffusion applied for the worse. choose which colors are
available and the filter tries possibly in vain to march the image. march up,
left, down, or right. specify fat stripes and exaggerated error propagation. krunk's the word.
a nice effect is to eyedropper up a few colors from the source image.
omino feedback
a simple rendition of the classic video feedback. similar to echo in some ways, but
with scaling and centering.
animate the parameters with bumps and jostles to create wonderful rippling cadences.
omino squares
a friendly agreeable geometrical
modulation, in which small squares
assemble to resemble your source image.
what could be finer, for is not the pixel
square? as it is in the small, so shall it be writ large.
new in this release: special wibble parameter added to the futz section.
omino spheremap
omino halftone++
