    Default Marbles

    I used to shoot marbles as a kid, but I never had one like this one.
    Marbles anyone?

    Posting the same marble again.

    I think I need to find a way of calibrating my Laptops and PCs.

    The first marble looks full of too much contrast on this PC, compared to the Laptop I did the first marble on.

    Please let me know which looks better?
    The first or this second one.

    Here's where the marbles came from. Great job BP. Personally, I enjoyed your previous set of marbles. Very well done. I really like the transparent effect that you did. How were you able to accomplish the transparent effect?

    Hey Andy, great job. I like the glowing effect that you created. It looks like light going through the marble.

    Thanks Paul,
    Paul this transparent effect what you saw, is the result of Xara power, so you can get this effect if you:
    1. Use the fractal clouds and plasma transparency.
    2. Play with the transparent handles.
    3. group all your objects, make a clone and apply the clone a new Type of the fractal clouds or plasma transparency.

    You can experiment with the fractal clouds, plasma FILL and TRANSPARENCY.
    Hope that help you.
    Best Regards BP

    Very nice marbles BP !
    Thanks for the complement Paul.
    Here is my same marble, but with the classic 4 pane window reflection.
    Seems to help suggest depth somewhat.
