Skull,
That's groovy man, far out. Makes me wanna put on a Strawberry Alarm Clock LP, grab a bowl of Cherry Garcia and mellow out baby.
BTW check out http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/28298-trs-paste-warp/?p=408418, you were the inspiration.
TechnoRobbo's Paste Warp
Warps the images into the contour of random selection.
It's based on a requests from Skullbonz, Ratty Redemption and refined with great suggestions from Red Ochre.

If your image has Alpha use my "TR's Copy with Alpha" plugin and PasteWarp into image.

That is the way the code works. BoltBait, I believe, gaussian blurs the Alpha Channel - very quick and very effective.
Edge fader extreme was designed to follow the contour on on irregular shapes and depletes the Alpha in a series of concentric layers.
The artifact is created in the real world grid of the bitmap. If a bitmap were a fractal and infinitely divisible then in theory no artifact would appear. but since the image is depleted as concentric images there is a breakdown in the perception of roundness - which utlimately doesn't really exist in a grid. Going "extreme" shows the true nature of the grid.
Also there are only 256 steps between transparent and solid, this also plays into the artifact.
Here's an example that might help. - Note how charly chaplin concentrically becomes a stick figure as all illusion of roundness and details disappers.
Hmmmm, Make it into a pen. The Idea is similar to the interface I use in TR's Edge Cutter. Except Edge Cutter is based on distance from last node.
The current interface is already very complex , that's why I've included all the video tutorials. Though your Idea is very tempting, I may play around with it in the future.
Thank you for the suggestion.
Skull Cool -Effect looks like virus in a petri dish
- eventually I while migrate from CodeLab to VS at that point I can use my ColorWheel control to set transparent colors.
The original spherical image is a panorama - If you mean a video, I use microsoft expressions to screen cap.
You can export 6 perfectly aligned images using '

I press Ctrl-D all the time. The persistent selection can be a blessing or a curse. If I Ctrl-D and I needed to keep the selection, I feel like an idiot. Now it's Ctrl-Z, Ctrl-Z,Ctrl-Z, while I mumble "stupid, stupid,stupid"
Nice Digital Camo BTW.
I can think of several.
10. This is a psychedelic hippie effect and the number four is soooo square, man.
9. If Scientists can get rid of Pluto - I can can throw out four too.
8. It makes that Three - Five transition sound so much smoother
7. Depending on how you write it, four has too many loose ends or it's a confused triangle.
6. Four the heck of it.
5. 4 was being naughty and I sent it to bed without it's supper
3. See, I told you it was a smoother transition.
2. it couldn't get along with the prime numbers
1. I screwed up. Oops.
I'll fix it.
Thanks - Drew, Seerose and Motto
One last reason - Four ran away when he saw Seven Eight Nine. (cannibal!)
