First Decorator screens!

Monday, March 3rd, 2008

Today our good friend Gabor announced his new baby: Decorator.
Decorator is an Image Generator that exports/print postscript from it. Which means you can print your images a large as you want, without any pixel.

It generates lovely outputs and I can already see the potential to this awsome tool, my living room will love this new way of wallpaper, and the best about it's always unique due to a random seed generator.

I've had the opportunity to try the closed beta, and I must say that I was impressed with the outcome of just a little fiddling with the engine.

So be sure to drop by FlashGuy.de and check the amazing outputs of Decorator.
