It wouldn't change anything. The local differences that are used to
compute the surface normal would be exactly the same.
Dude, follow the math! Read the

What he is suggesting is to invert the color value, so white
becomes black, and black areas become white, so that the bumpmap
will take a different height field to achieve the "inverse" effect..
I have tried it before but do not quite like the result..
IMHO, the PS Lighting effects did it

Sorry?
I still don't see what this is about. the bumpmap layer used internally
in
what if you color invert the one you use as the bump map?
if you use same layer, then duplicate, color invert, and use the
inverted to bump the regular.

Now, what is the difference between that?
Seriously, all heights in such effects are indeed relative...

Nope, that is not it.. Unfortunately, the Invert Bumpmap
option works just like the Azimuth, it changes the direction
of light 180 degrees, e.g. from NE to SW. That doesn't
do much to create the "carved in" effect. In fact it is
a bit redundant as you can always tweak the Azimuth value
to ach

Short answer: "Invert bumpmap"
Long answer: Beware the sneaky qualities of human perception.

Hi All,
I have been using the bumpmap plugin quite a lot lately.
It produces some very good embossy effects and I am very happy with the
results, thanks to the effort of the programmer.
I was trying to look for an engraved effect, the opposite
of emboss, i.e. to make the thing look caved
