I used blender... It maps perfectly onto my sphere (maybe a head, but I'm not sure if the mapping is the same), and it's really weird. But pwitty.

It's big.

it doesn't map perfectly.

and it's pretty annoying, don't really know what it is.

looks like photoshop filter spam, mainly clouds and noise for the background, then some hue changes...

Not a photoshop filter, btw... It maps onto my shpere; You're just mapping differently. If that was the point, I'd have posted a picture of the sphere.

you sure it maps "perfectly"?

the top and bottom aren't near smooth enough to be "perfect"

The mapping is sideways!!!! Try again, tilt the uvs 90 degrees!
Edit: Oh, right.. I scaled the edges down, and so It's not exactly seamless at the top...

why is the mapping sideways? >.>

Ok, that one isn't perfect, but this one is: It maps seamlessly, guarantied; I have prќfe:http://forum.toribash.com/attachment...1&d=1232071666
and here is the image itself:

What's so special about this...
Random brush patterns with some effects and filters around a sphere?

Maple, you fool, I am using no photoshop or gimp or filters or random brush patterns, whatever that is. Also... I improved that second one, since you seem to like it.

The last one looks pretty cool, actually.
