Attached Link: playing with chaos

Last night I put up a mini-tut demonstrating how to turn an innocuous photograph of a quiet brown rock into wild and chaotic disruption of pixelated space.  True photographers might be outraged, but some photographs are more useful as stepping stones (pun intended).

I wouldn't feel quite right entering that gallery image into this contest, even though it truly fits the theme (and I'm certain that the missing ebots of the first comments followed the mysql butterfly into the ether).  However, the thread might help inspire someone who hasn't yet created something.  THIS is a great excuse to play with the bolder filters.

It was hard to concentrate (I'm a migrained-out dyslexic who can't touch-type), and the headache is hitting back today, so if there are any typos left, please ignore them.  I hope the sense of adventure and experimentation came through and perhaps a few more people will post entries.
