On the closure of the User Forum : An open letter to John Dalton
Hi John I have no idea what you are going through. However the impact you have made not to continue with the user forum and your desire keep it as a permanent feature as promised in the past is a big shock. It also betrays the faith and love we have shown in you and Studio Artist. Bluntly spoken, it sucks. 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…

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…

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?

Both these two SRCs have # Shape parameters.Does anyone here use these two parameters?I'm wondering if there is any way to control the parameters of the shapes themselves. size, angles, location etc.I've made some interesting composition, and would love to know how to make changes like, 'Rotate this shape' or move this shape etc. Thank!

Couldn't you use layers to store previous images and then use the bus option in the paint synthesizer to clone paint from those layers to your current layer to get the same effect? That feature is available today.
now you'll be disappointed because my idea is very simple...
i was aiming for something less cumbersome (straight forward-to go backwards!- if you like)
than capturing layers (each time!!) i do something to the canvas
i envision this:
AUTOMATICALLY the last version of the whole current image is kept in some kind of memory patch,
(that refreshes itself each time something is done to the canvas) AND is ready to be accessed
using (with most of the parameters that a brush has available in the synthesizer)
a soft, hard, watery, dusty, or clone the (previous) canvas kind of brush.
a constant "capture canvas to source image" memory thingy
see? simple!
the way i work?: (yes i know, nobody asked) i start to paint/filter/etc the canvas (and more often than not)
too late i realize that i went way overboard with an effect (paint/operation/etc)
BUT (what an odd thing!!) i like the look of some sections of the unwelcome resulting image,
AND i would rather kept the previous (more pleasing) version on the rest of my canvas
mixing the good accidents with the proven ones
as now, i do erase the canvas and try again (and again , and..)
until i get some approximation of what i think looks best
all of this to speed up the process
less energy invested on the how and most of the effort on the what
where, accessed by a simple click,
image #2 would be the constant refreshed current canvas
image #1 been the primary source
...and image #3 the lovely pinky flowers,
...and image #4 the graphic that i created in photoshop,
...and etc., etc., etc.
