Nice cope. Very artistic :)I was actually going for something with holiday colors, and somewhat artistic without doing the red & green only. I was also trying for something like a Windows Aurora, which is popular with Longhorn/Vista, 7 and 8.
Nice Cope I have a hard enough time just turning my computer onReally? I think I will make a wallpaper just for you.

Hey Stiffy,
Did you happen to download the full size (http://www.1upclan.info/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=12860.0;attach=14487)? The wallpaper looks a bit pixelated. :-\

Well anyhow, I decided to test my GIMP skills to recreate it.
Almost a year later, here is the result.

Kitty Kat by Tectix on deviantART has this great close up picture of a cat.

With permission I made this fractal manipulation of his cat.
GIMP was used to render this creation.

great work (http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/c/clap2.gif) can you make a tutorial how to do this in gimp? I often use gimp, but I don't know how this works... ^^
Thank you.
A tutorial with this image or one of your choosing?
Better yet, I will give you everything you need to make one exactly like this using the original image from Tectix at http://fav.me/d5g49sr
The cats name which I found out later is Pilchard.
The Kitty Kat, I used GMIC, which can be found here.
http://gmic.sourceforge.net/gimp.shtml (http://gmic.sourceforge.net/gimp.shtml)…
The filter used was called Rodilius inside GMIC / Artistic / Rodilius.

The settings I used for that particular image were 10 10 300 36 Light All. There are many settings to use to change images. I just experiment with them until I get an image I like. The same settings can not be used with all images, as images can be different colors, sizes and other aspects which could change the outcome of the final image.
Here is a good start for you to maximize your GIMP tools and scripts.
GIMP fx foundry can be found here.

I have been using GIMP for about 23 years. Some images are just trial and error. I have my GIMP settings to have an undo of about 70. It may seem like a lot, but when one is trying so many different things to see what all the tools are capable of, and all the settings associated with it, one tends to undo many steps to start where it last looked good.
Here is many tutorials to get started.

I know some are of Inkscape, and Photoshop, but I have attempted to recreate the same images created with those other applications with a good deal of success.
Good luck, and have some fun...
A new wallpaper to change up my desktop.

Made with GIMP.
Well after a small delay in making wallpapers, I decided to create another animal fractal.
I know it is another cat, but furry animals seem to look best as fractals.
That is pretty cool
