What happens when you push Neat Image to the limits? These were all made with Neat Image only...no other adjusting..except for on the last one I did some burning and stuff. But you get the idea...
  
  
Kinda crazy eh? Gotta give props to Rikki...he was the original inspiration for these.
*Edited to add originals.

i think they are great as far as digital art goes - they would work really well as screenprints. Definatley left the house of photography though.
I might need to play with the old NI myself ;) |

But, since it was only neat image, doesn't that make them OK to use under basic editing? I mean, if you had a particular desire to get hammered by the voters...

It would be bending the rules for sure I think...but I don't know if it would be completely illegal...hard to say.
I wouldn't do it though, lol...no one would like it as a photograph.

Yeah...I've been messing around with some digital art lately. I was a Graphic Design major for a year, so I know a little about it.
I might do a whole series of these...hmmmm.

This should be considered my personal opinion and not a Site Council ruling, however I would say not legal. The filter rule states: "The use of filters (or non-Photoshop equivalent) is strictly limited. Any filter or stand-alone utility designed and used to preserve the integrity of the image and/or reduce the effects of noise, scratches, etc, are permitted. These include but are not limited to the Sharpen, Unsharp Mask, and Dust & Scratches filters, and standalone image cleanup utilities such as NeatImage" (emphasis added)
I would say these entries fail the "and used" test and would vote to DQ. I suspect, though, that I'd be outvoted, and we'd just let the voters have their way with it.
Challenges aside, that's a pretty neat result. I kinda like it.
How exactly did you pull this off?

A lot of messing around...lol. I had the settings on neat image at a little above what you would normally use for a photo. I just applied the filter about 20 times...then with a couple of them I went back with the paint bucket and did a little coloring in...reminded me of my pre-school days.
I just tried to do a lanscape...but it doens't work too well, makes it too unrecognizable.
I'll have to try something else other than my face....;)

Well, it would be an interesting debate. That clause pertains to filters. You can also make a photo very much a graphic art piece by playing with curves. Would they DQ that? (Not arguing, just think the lines are very thin!)

This (and boredom) motivated me to try some extreme neat image myself...
Enjoy!
