The SL region of Trigger was one of the top five most popular for members of Koinup (an NWN partner.) This image by Icarus Robbiani is probably one reason why. Significantly post-processed, Robbiani says he used not Photoshop, but Paint.Net. (A free image editor which I also happen to use, and highly recommend.) "I have duplicated the background layer to create the frame effect," he writes, "then I used first a glow effect and after the 'Soften Portrait', finally I have applied with a new layer the texture 'Antique Texture' with blending mode 'Overlay'." More info and credits on the display page; see more of Icarus' great and unique landscape portraits on his Koinup profile. See the whole Tableau album here, and read on for info on submitting an entry of your own.
Submitting to New World Tableau: New World Tableau is an ongoing album featuring Residents who've turned SL screenshots into a new art form, vividly conveying emotions, stories, and entire cultures in a single image. - If you come across a picture or image stream that deserves a place here, please IM (Hamlet Au) or e-mail ([email protected]) me the link. Please e-mail me the image as a file link, or attached as an .jpeg or .gif, as long as it's under a meg in size.
- Submission tip: I regularly check the SL screenshot stream of New World Notes partner Koinup, an MMO social network-- consider creating an account there.
- Submitting as an in-world texture not recommended, as they often come out distorted and not high res.
- Feel free to describe what the image says to you, or if you're the creator, what inspired you to make it.
- Whenever possible, name the Residents pictured, and include a SLURL to the location (when appropriate.)
- Moderately Photoshopped images are OK, just mention if this is the case, and what effects were added. (On rare occasions when the post-production adds a special element, heavily Photoshopped images are also appropriate.)
- If you submit an image to NWT, it's assumed I have permission to run it, either as the owner, or because it's been appropriately CC licensed. The original creator retains all their rights to it, in any case.
