I didn't write the base method for that, just applied some filters and let it go. That method worked particularly well on the logo. My other pretty good method works particularly well on the testscreen image. Nothing I have works well for comp1d.jpg, lilies.gif, or Callahan_bag.jpg. > I think we should add the logo as source image to the contest, too. Sounds good, but I posted that because I wanted to show off what this method I have could do with a well-known (:^) non-contest image. > I am looking forward for very interesting results and algorithms :-) Will you be sharing your algorithms? I don't care much about the actual code, just the methods behind it. Elijah ------ has a half finished program using a new method he wants to try
