Help wanted to achieve Photoshop effect
Posted: Thu Feb 26, 2004 1:39 pm
What I am trying to do is convert a photo into areas of flat colour with smooth edges.
Basically, turn a landscape or cityscape into smoothly contoured areas that represent the shapes in the original photo, but which are semi-abstracted by their complete absence of detail.
I'd want to use a simple palette of colours, that doesn't necessarily represent the real colours, though the similar tones in the original picture would tend to be the same colour in the output.
Any ideas most welcome.
Thanks
