 Hey all,

 Just letting everyone know about a new crowdfunding project I've just 
 launched:

 https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/41633306/a-christmas-gift-for-qgis-live-layer-effects-for-q


I've just posted a new demonstration video at
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2cQ7rBGgoq0
This showcases layer effects for line and polygon layers, and an outer
glow effect.

Funding is getting very close, but we're almost out of time. Please
share this update to anyone you think may be interested in funding
this campaign and seeing this feature land in QGIS.

Thanks again to everyone who's donated so far!

 Hi Nyall,
 I tried to donate, but my credit card was refused without any hints why.
Its still valid till 08/15. Any experience with that already or other ways
to contribute?


Hmmm - I can't explain that. I was hoping that by going through Kickstarter
all the payment handling would be easier!

Do you mind contacting Kickstarter support and see if they can help?

Thanks,
Nyall

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/41633306/a-christmas-gift-for-qgis-live-layer-effects-for-q

 This project aims to add live layer effects to QGIS which can be
 applied to symbols. Some examples include live blur effects, drop
 shadows, and outer glows. Think Photoshop style layer effects but
 available directly within QGIS.

Many thanks to everyone who's donated so far!

I've just posted a video which demonstrates the operation of this feature
and the type of possibilities it will unlock:

Please help spread the word if you'd like to see this land in QGIS!

Initially this will be just for symbol layers, but the code will be
flexible enough to allow these effects to apply to composer items,
labelling, etc. Effects will also be stackable, eg, you can apply a
blur to a symbol and then a subsequent drop shadow effect.

Why crowdfund? Well, there's a lot of work left to get this to a
mergeable stage. It's not a sponsored project, and will take a lot of
time to complete. I think crowdfunding will be the best way of raising
the amount to fund my development time on this valuable feature.

So, please share the word!

Merry Christmas to all,
Nyall
