If all goes my way with a recent proposal that I've put forth to my firm's executive committee I will be taking the firm a needed step forward in 3d computer applications. If my vision is realized I hope to acquire at least a few of your IPAS routines.:-] So, if you can think of any way I can convince my firm to purchase some of the really cool ones please contact me with some application ideas and reasons why we should have 'em. Actually, any info on the routines would be helpful. I'm sure we can think of reasons why we can't live without them. >>> We can take a "hard" computer image and soften it up to make it look like a design sketch, and animate it at that!<<< On this topic I have been asked several times to soften up a still image. To accomplish this I find that Photostyler with Gallery Effects may be a way to do this. I have also found Photoshop with Kai's Power Tools seems to be another way but I have not found out if Kai's Power Tools are available for the Windows version of Photoshop. For that matter I have not seen a review for Photoshop for Windows yet so I don't know if this is worth the investment. I've got Photostyler already. Am I close? I would be interested in your thoughts on image softening and similar special effects.
