Happy New Year! You may try my small gift- PhotoToPicture converter. This one converts raster into vector, by for the reasons, explained before, its output is a raster too. As for me, looks rather pretty. Think about it as a filter, what simplifies an image and make it looks as an art.

[svg-developers] Visual effects, produced by advanced gradient fills

2008-08-11 Thread a_matseevsky
This is an easy sample of which sort of visual effects can be produced by the advanced gradient fills. Prog is available at http://www.smartfills.com/Html/GradientFillsDemo.zip . Unzip and run. Four buttons with digits change regime a little- they set number of colors of an output image.

Who has an interest to see how advanced gradient fills could be used in animation, download a tiny program from http://www.smartfills.com/Html/newexamp.zip . Unzip and run. You only need move cursor and look at what happens. This sort of vectors could be without much problems defined, using

People, there are things, what can make SVG graphic more flexible and impressive. I do know (thanks to Mr. Ferraiolo), that there must be serious reasons to expand SVG specification (at least two progs, browsers mostly), but on the other hand implementation of advanced gradient fills promise
