Wilhelm,
Regarding the origin of this thread, the challenge was trying to take a
rectangular image and distort it by changing the shape of the image from a
rectangle to a triangle or ngon with the appropriate interpolation. I
imagine even you would agree it is a sizable task for Rev's built in ima
Most things have already been said, and I will try to keep my comment short.
Bush was not a specific target for me, but more of a random choice to
exemplify the new "caricature" features of my Toolkit. It could have
chosen Hillary or Barack, or Putin for that matter.

It is easy to mistake this as the "Revolution" forum, I guess. ;)

To paraphrase Mark Twain, it's better to keep your mouth shut and let
people think you're a fool than open it and remove all doubt.
As much as I enjoy and defend freedom of speech let's return the
bandwidth away from what's revolting to what's Revolution.
Peace on Earth and good will to all.

I hope I do not cause trouble with this attempt of a caricature - as

Rev can use an image as a fill for a polygon, but when the polygon is
resized or reshaped, the image is cropped to fit rather than being
distorted. That probably isn't the effect you are after.
Really, rev cant apply an image as fill for a polygon? Any workarounds?
