Making An Abstract Effect in GIMP (IMAGES!!)

[JDBar]

Guide requested by bigjesse.

I can not really call this a tutorial, since it is not. It is a guide. This technique that I occasionally use is very random, and images created with it are often almost impossible replicate. When you start you may not feel motivated to finish, because this guide will only venture with you half way through the process at a point where you don't feel like you have anything.

The first half is the same every time, and gives similar results every time.
The second half is entirely your decision, and will give something nobody else could possibly copy.

On a random note, this tutorial is my 200th post.
