...to make such images? Surely not. But it's fun.
Thanks go out to:
- H.E. Day for his ideas on 'find_edges' post processing
- Chis Colefax for his Spray include and Clock modifier macro file
Of course there is an animation but I think it's too large to post it
here and I've no homepage yet (too much raytracing!).
To Chris Colefax: some of the pink bubbles pop away when having crossed
the right border half way. I guess you do a visibility test in your
Spray include to create only those object which are visible. Right?
To all others: I'm looking fo a font in 'Austin Powers' style or kind of
60's style that fits the mood.

I have to admit, I'm hard pressed to not beleive that this was rendered in
POV-Ray. It really looks like Adobe Illustrator. Of course this is a
compliment.

I assume that Blubber is meant to be an anagram of Bubbler or is there some
other significance to the word ?

'Blubber' is the German 'comic noise' for bubbling fluids. So Bubbler is
not so far away from it ;-)

The canonical "70s" font is Bocklin (sometimes spelled Boecklin)

I just saw on Ray Larabies web site that this font isn't free. And I've
no software it is associated with. 8-[

Look at http://www.fontaddict.com/archive.html and search for "Action"
font (freeware), maybe this one could suit yours needs...
Bouf.

Thanks Ron. But this font fits to the time between 1900 and 1920. In the
meantime I found two fancy fonts that fit to the 1960's.
I'll post a new version when I changed my character placing routine.
Every character can be placed according to its dimensions. The effect is
that I can manipulate every single character of a string.
The problem lies in one of the new fonts. The characters can be
overlapping that means an "a" can be placed under the bow of a
preceeding "P".
I'll have to think about it...

That's called kerning. You can determine how much kerning is applied to
a pair; I posted at length on this subject deep in a thread over in
povray.programming. I even wrote a couple macros.
// Find the advance width of character C in font F
#macro WidthWithSpacing( C, F )
#local T=text {ttf F concat("|",C,"|") 1 0}
#local W1=max_extent(T).x-min_extent(T).x;
#local T=text {ttf F "||" 1 0}
(W1-max_extent(T).x+min_extent(T).x)
#end
// Find the width of the glyph for character C in font F
#macro WidthNoSpacing( C, F )
#local T=text {ttf F C 1 0}
(max_extent(T).x-min_extent(T).x)
#end
// Find the kern for characters A and B from font F
#macro Kern( A, B, F )
(WidthWithSpacing( concat(A, B), F)-WidthWithSpacing(A,F)
-WidthWithSpacing(B,F))
#end

Thanks Ron.
Seems like I don't need to think about it anymore because you did it
before 8-)
I'll try it out when I'm back from holidays. (yep! I'm leaving in a few
minutes)
