Saving Work, Best Practices

Has there been discussion on the various ways in which people are saving their projects?

I'm constantly experimenting with various techniques and can never decide on how to store them. ie If I create a masterpiece do I store the PASREQ or HISTORY scripts inside a project folder, along with the masterpiece, or do i store the scripts along with all the other scripts, or do I store the scripts in both places?

What do most folks do?

  • If the project is specific to a particular source image, you can make a project folder, and store the source, paseq or history sequence, and any additional things in the named folder. You can also save a text document with notes on the project if that is useful.

    If it's a PASeq you will use in multiple projects, then i typically save it in an appropriately named PASeq category folder.

    I do a lot of gallery show manipulation. So it's good for that to have a lot of diverse preset for it to work off of for things like preset randomization or merging. So that's a vote for storing the scripts in bot places.

That you have chosen to follow this direction in silence, allowing no compassion or understanding on our part is a betrayal of the deepest level. What is going on? This is not the John…

Interdimensional Coincidence Control

Hi everyone, I am glad the site is still here! Here is a new short video I made. All made in Studio Artist, several separate videos with alpha channels, then combined in layers with the music in Blender. A lot of MSG running through brushes, with several of the brush Path Starts being controlled by the MSG Scan Generator in the Generator part of the Path Start in the Paint Synthesizer. Also some MSG running through a brush, then making a video of that with an alpha channel, then making that a…

Whats going on with this site?

Has anyone else gotten a warning about this site disappearing? An email form just popped up, asking me to contract the owner and leave a message to let them know that they may loose their "network"Did Synthetik forget to pay it's bills, or is something else going on?I think 8 months is more than enough vacation time. Is anyone at Synthetik doing any development work at all?
