About the image: Wouldn't you love a floor like this! This started as a flower. Playing with some of the special filters in Corel Photopaint I had not used, nor really seen a use for, I started by using the puzzle setting on Child's play, then converted the photo into a bitplane and then used the Terazzo filter.

I love the results. No resemblance at all to the original photo!
