A view across a lagoon.

On Saturday 8 October 2005 I tried some experiments with anaglyphs as a result of trying to answer a question in the Serif forum about producing an anaglyph of a picture, rather than of an object, using the Serif ImpactPlus program.
I found that one can produce an anaglyph of a picture by producing an object which is a thin cuboid (thus a cinema screen) with the front face having the same aspect ratio as the picture and texturing the object with the picture and then producing the anaglyph.
I produced a bmp image in Microsoft Paint, inspired by a view of Venice across the lagoon with waves rippling in the lagoon. This is in the file lagoon.bmp.
I then produced a thin cuboid in ImpactPlus and textured it with the picture.
I then leaned the cuboid back by thirty degrees and then produced the anaglyph. This is in the file lagoon.GIF.
It was not as straightforward as that though as I tried various things along the way. However, the anaglyph is from the default settings, my experiments were with pictures and angles, not anaglyph settings.
However, I like to think that the resulting anaglyph is quite effective when viewed through the red and cyan glasses.
The file lagoon3.GIF is a version with a white background.
I managed to get most of the shadow out, though not all.
Here are some graphics made at various times for various purposes, often learning experiences of some technique, added to the library during October 2005.

Here are some poems.
The following poems are on the topic of reusable bags and may be of interest to people interested in recycling, graphic design and pop art and how all three can interact.
Most of the fonts used to produce the poem pdfs are available on the main fonts page of this webspace.

A_Serifed_Roman tests 001 is a font putting forward some basic glyph design ideas for a Public Domain font, perhaps to be named A_Serifed_Roman. The idea for the font is that if it is Public Domain maybe lots of people will participate in making it a useful, quickly adaptable font, which could play a part in information technology. This test font is likely to be useful only to people studying the basic design ideas. The font does include mapped places for many characters, including Y macron and y macron, AE macron and ae macron and U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER so may be useful for development.
The next published stage of the font.
