January 28, 1997 - Modular Dreams Incorporated today announces the release of
MD+F Plug-ins for ColorWorks - Renders, their third product in a series of
plug-in enhancements for SPG ColorWorks V2.
Modular Dreams' MD+F Plug-ins for ColorWorks - Renders consists of 20 plug-ins
which add pattern rendering capability to SPG Inc's ColorWorks V2. The
patterns created by these plug-ins can be used as-is or they can be retouched
using ColorWorks' standard set of filtering and image processing tools or
other MD+F plug-ins to create more complex paintings. Intended for Internet
based publishing usage, most plug-ins shipped in this package render truly
seamless images and an auto-tiling feature is provided where appropriate.
The following are the modules currently shipping in this package. Each
module name is followed be a short description:
Bars - Equally distanced curved bars.
Fire - A field of fire with various coloring schemes such as Fire, Smoke,
and Plasma or custom palettes.
Foil - Three different foil textures. (seamless)
Loops - Colored loops which star at full strength and slowly disappear
as they expand. (seamless)
