Etheryte, thanks for posting that.
Unfortunately, the demo of PS ran out for me a couple of days earlier so I can't try it out yet, but when I have the opportunity to try out PS again, I'm sure that'll come in handy.

I understand that it is a cool feature and I am sure it makes for a cool effect. But you seem to be completely avoiding my point that it does not benefit photo editing or graphic design at all.
I tell you what, if you can find me a visually appealing digital design that has one of the brush editing feature you speak of I will admit that it could serve as a benefit, but until I see it used in a meaningful way I am going to retain my position that it is nothing more than just "neat" to have. |
I know this is going to seem like a cop out, but it wouldn't necessarily be appropriate to show you any pictures simply because the operation applies to such small parts of the picture, which itself can be changed that you wouldn't immediately recognize that the operation was involved at all.
Instead, imagine these things:
1: To get a glazed look on windows, try some random specs (with white/lightblue), and then use this special 'move' function to drag the specs say down and right.
2: In step 4 of the wooden 'tongs' diagram, you can see the object getting smaller. Such steps could be repeated 100 times, and you'd end up with a nice '3D' look to that part.
3: If you wanted to create a 'fence' that moved off into the distance, you'd create one plank, and then simply use the special "move" function to repeat that pattern over a line path. It would get smaller, and move right.
4: A whirlpool type effect by drawing a circular blue thing, and then rotating and shrinking at the same time around 100 times.
5: The 60 seconds marks (of any shape/colour) on an analogue clock by using the special move function to rotate 360 degrees where the pivot of the brush is at an offset.
6: Cool swirl effects where any object rotates slightly and moves left/right a bit. Think of a half/quarter moon, grass blade, spiral, sand dune, etc. etc. Such shapes are good for banners and underlining or decorating titles etc.
I could go on, and naturally PS could create these effects sooner or later (possible sooner thanks to Etheryte's post), but the addition of the function would at least provide another way of easily creating simple, effective results, and possibly quicker/more easily than PS can currently do. |
