        <![CDATA[ I&#39;ve been experimenting with Displacement maps lately, they seem to have many uses once you get used to what they do.





Anyway, here&#39;s a quick way to make sand. I think the patterns called Dog Food and Blue Spruce are standard ones.





Actually though, I have more fun trying these maps on gradients. Here&#39;s one with the BlueSspruce but I used 2d instead of 3d.

			<description><![CDATA[ Yes, scripts can be confusing, esp now with all the different versions of PSP that use scripts. All the scripts don&#39;t work in all the versions and it&#39;s
very difficult to keep track. I thought I would like using scripts when they first came out but now I rarely use them.

The two kinds are restricted and trusted. All scripts work from the trusted folder, they don&#39;t all work in the retricted folder. In theory a trusted script
can control anything on your computer so they... ]]></description>

<p>Ok this is the flexify of the kaleidoscope mirror tut,on a background of

mqc Moss with a dis-map of spruce.......not a very good example, used by myself, but none the less without this tut the &quot;weave&quot; wouldnt have had the
texture it has.....so these lessons are more than two-fold... ]]></description>
