OK so here is a nude taken some time ago pre DSLR. I have applied the Fractalius filter using CS2

Sorry mate, the filter makes it look like she's covered in course brown hair. I think I would much rather see the original

I think the strength of the filter adds an unflattering ugliness.

can you tone down the filter layer some? to my eyes, its too harsh, or sharp, and the mind cant blend soft curves and contrasting cracks...

Umm ... she looks like she needs ironing ....

The wolfwoman cometh!

I'm not exactly sure what the filter is supposed to do, but cleaning my monitor didn't help either.

Let's maybe go back to the original and .... just leave it alone?

Would prefer the original..perhaps just soften it...

Just where is that filter? (I need to know so I can avoid it)

Like the others I would prefer the original

I don't think its fair to comment on a filter in PS If I can't see the original that it came from

Ok, obvoiusly not to anyones liking. I was just 'experimenting'. Due to popular request here is the original taken on a Sony DSC F717 (Actually it was not a bad camera).

A beautiful image without the filter. I suspect you could post process the image a little further....try and make the skin glow a little more, otherwise...perfect.

Im with Matt K ...
This isnt the image that goes well with that filter

I really like the filtered image. It reminds me of those Japanese cartoons etc.

I'm off to find it and give it a little try.

Cheers
