What filter did you use in the first shot here? I'm looking for something similar...

this was cutout filter under the artistic filters in cs3 with number of levels set at 8 im not 100% on the other levels i used there probably 6 and 3 as thats
what its set to at the moment, I also applied Poster edges filter too in that image.

Looks kind of cool if use it on photos of people, gives a kind of lazy mans "Scanner Darkly" effect

I always thought the white one was to colour over mistakes like when you go over the lines... :eek: .... Fine anyway :mad: I have my own markers.. and I have a blackboard and chalk too so just go away now before my violent streak breaks all your crayons into pieces... :mad:....
... oh look.. Bambi! :

If you _REALLY_ want to know, I killed it - Why? I don't like spiders and it was in my house.

OMG! you don't mind photographing them though do ya?
Why not just get someone else to move it out of your house if they scare you that much?

Also boasting about it's with us no more is not exactly going to enrich you to people either.

Actually yes I did mind.. I was holding the camera much closer than I was ever going to go! blindshooting tbh.

move it out? no, see then it can come back in.

Who's boasting.. you asked, I answered. Also it could well do, a lot of females don't like spiders either! :pac:

I've had a go at using the cutout (and other artistic) filters in PS - and just realised I'm only using CS2. It's just not giving me the same effect. Is that the only filtering you applied? - Because it looks amazing. Any other tutorials I can find on that effect involve actual sketching on the image - i.e. a lot more than playing with a filter. Hmmm - maybe CS3 is required...
Cheers!
