The Escher Sketch

http://www-sphys.unil.ch/escher/

A fascinating art tool based on the work of M. C. Escher.

"Escher Web Sketch allows you to draw repeating patterns. You can select the symmetry of the patterns by clicking on one of the icons in the bar above the drawing area. The drawing tools are selected from the icon bar under the drawing area. The scroll bar(s) on the left will change the pattern size. The right hand side of the drawing area is reserved for each drawing tool's usage. Typically it changes the pen size and color."

I could play with this all night, it's so cool!

I really like slight's first one the best.. except for the lack of nipples.
that is really kind of bothering me the more I look at it.

Yeah, I've got zero skills in that department. I'm just not wired for visual art. I really wish I was.

I know shit all about graphics software. When I was done, I "submitted" then saw a thumbnail, which I saved. Clicking on the thumbnail, however, went to a blank page. For what it's worth:

I had to bring this back after playing around on this tonight. Hopefully some new talent out there can make something cooler than the others in this thread.

The link though has changed to here: http://marie.epfl.ch/escher/

I could not get the applet to load because of a security control with ActiveX. You may need to change your security control or just download the program to your computer.

Have fun!
