MICRO MADNESS!
PM DISCOVERS ANOTHER SNOWDAYS DISPLAY LIMITATION

Well, unless you do a lot of Micro-Flaking, you probably would never come across this
totally bizarre display at SnowDays.  But it IS rather kewl, so I thought I would share it.

Now that we flakers have the means of creating amazingly detailed flakes, some neat
limitations have been "x"posed.  PM's Distortion Flakes showed us one of these limita-
tions, and now she has "discovered" yet another one.  She sent me the following letter.

Here is PM's Micro Flake as it appears at SnowDays...

As most of you know, you can right click and hit ZOOM IN and will get a larger version.

This flake is soooo tiny that I had to ZOOM IN as far as the program would let me.
This is done by right clicking and hitting ZOOM IN again & again until you reach
the feature's ZOOM IN limit, (the flake details will no longer enlarge for you).

Here is what PM's Micro Flake looks like when that is done...

Fabulous detail for a flake that's so small!

As PM mentioned in her letter, this feature also worX while we are creating our flakes.  You can
ZOOM IN to see any flaws your flake may have before sending it off to the masses!

Here is PM's flake as it appeared to her at the 550% Internet "X"plorer 7 zoom that she used to create it...

And here finally is how it appeared when she used the SnowDays flash ZOOM IN feature to check the "details"...

The flake has been "split" into equal negative and positive pieces, giving it a sort of Japanese Rising Sun quality.  KEWL!!!
 

My many thanX to PM for discovering and sharing this rather unique "trick"!  ;)  - X -
