Way cool. Could also post a picture of the aquarium that came from, so we could see what the software does to it? - Rich

Omg, how have I only JUST heard about Adobe Capture after reading this thread?? I only downloaded it five minutes ago and I’m already having way too much fun. The ‘shapes’ category is awesome, and I think it may actually produce vector images! (maybe, all I know so far is that the image can be opened in illustrator haha).

yes, “shapes” produces grouped, editable vectors for Ai. Portable image tracing!

Amazing!! Just from playing with it at my desk I’ve already been able to get some pretty workable files. So so cool.

I noticed that you posted a PNG file for the forum… does the Amaziograph app have an option to output vectors, or only bitmaps?

Don’t have my ipad with me, but I’m pretty sure it’s only bitmaps. Still fun to play with… I also use Capture (my profile pic is a vectorization it generated).

PNG.
you have the option to
Export RAW images: Include transparent areas in saved images, for use in photo editing software.
High resolution artwork: Turn off for better performance, but lower resolution. The setting applies for all drawings.
Screen shot of patterns you can pick from.

Yes, it does trace the drawing and vectorize it. That was the main reason I got it about a year ago, but I thought I found out about it on here somewhere back then.

Love it, can’t wait to really explore its potential. Haha it’s very possible Adobe Capture was mentioned waaaay back and I just completely overlooked it

I first found out about it in a post in last December…

Maybe this is the right place to ask this question. I was taught this optical illusion drawing thing awhile ago and I don’t know if it has a specific name. You draw a circle, and then you put “points” on the circle at regular intervals around the edge (I’ve found every 15 degrees or so works great), and then you draw a line from each point to every other point. If you are precise, the finished product looks like half of a 3D ball with concentric circles going out from the center.
Does anyone know what this is called? Or if it even has a name?

I remember doing this when I should’ve been doing x-y intercepts in math class.

While I do those kinds of drawings as well, this is what I was trying to describe.
SO many possibilities with this, if you only connect the lines in the middle, the outside edges, middle third etc… I’m planning on making a bunch of coasters (and other things) with these kinds of designs.

@dwardio Yeah, that is showing the kinds of things I was hoping to do with this. I didn’t know that someone already wrote up any kind of tutorial for it already.
In a similar vein, has anyone clicked on Amaziograph’s Related tab in the app store? Some additional iPad apps that might be worth checking out…

The list gets even longer. Type “Spirograph” in the app store search.
