This
is a new concept and IMHO, is a great way to make the ripples where
you want them.
No cutting up picture & then using formula to get top part of picture
to ripple underneath it.
Here you will use complete picture and
picture's actual measurements. Original size is applet
on the left, Width ~ 394 pixels x Height ~ 294 pixels. Original picture on
right has been
reduced in size to fit page. Ok, we look at original picture, and say,
"Sure be nice if water
under surfer was rippling." As you can see in applet on left, indeed,
our wish came true with
a bit of help from Roger Dillon and his Janim2.class version 2.11.
Using some trial and
lots of error I found that a horizon parameter of "210"
put the ripple starting where I wanted
it. Smaller number raises the position of the ripple,
"20" would start above the surfers head
and anything larger than "210" would put it lower than
what it is in applet. The speed of the
ripples is a matter of personal preference, and I used
"50" ~ |
