    A lot less creative than the other posts for this, but here you go. I ran it through Fotosketcher twice under Cartoon 1 and then added the wall texture to it. Had to size it smaller to keep it under 200 kb.

    Look forward to comments.

    Kerry, I was able to open Pixel bender on this one and had something really cool going, but everytime I hit the OK tab CS4 crashed. Must be a RAM issue?

    Neat OOTB thinking and image. I agree, it looks like wall art.
    Sorry to hear about PB crashing PS4. I haven't had the same problem when saving but, I was wondering if you are processing in the GPU or computer processor? I get a warning message on mine (CS5) that the processing can be too much for some GPU's (graphics card processing units) You can turn GPU off in the PS5 version of PB. I also had an image size restriction before I increased my RAM. I hope you can get it working.

    Andrew, first I have to say that your creativity is certainly no less than anyone else's! I love the graffiti wall look that you got, it reminds me of some of my posts in F&F recently.

    Sorry to hear that you are having a problem with PB, I'm not sure what to make of that. In my version there is an option to run it on the GPU or not, and un-checking that box would be a good trouble-shooting step.

    It is very possible to save your images at 1024 wide and keep the file size down if you use "constrain image size" and then "optimize for file size" when you save for web. A lot of people get upset when they see the JPEG quality number go down but it really doesn't make much difference at this image size.

    Andrew, I like the brick wall effect. The colors are intense. I don't use PB but have heard about the crashing problem also.:)
