Those examples are very impressive. You're aware that something similar could be done with filters. But not quite the same. One step in this would be using a Gaussian blur. The Hello Lucifer example is one in which this wouldn't quite work. It could look similar in the center, but because the blur radius is the same at every point, it wouldn't look as sharp at the pointy parts in the edges.
I once tried to make a drawn saxophone look more three-dimensional by applying a filter similar to the one in an example in the SVG specification. Making something look spheric or cylindric works well with this approach, but conic doesn't really work out. No matter how the blur radius is set, it always looks wrong at some point along the length of the tube. Your method is more capable. I already see where I could use it. --- In svg-developers@yahoogroups.com, "owlgems" <owlg...@...> wrote: > > Hi to all > > First time here.
