  WaterDropImage Help - Water applet in Flash for the web

This effect will create waterdrops-like transformations over your slides.

The Background color

The background color will be used as the background during preloading of applet.

Distortion rate, expand speed and amount of waterdrops

Distortion rate will determine how much (in pixels) bigger will be fragment of image under waterdrop comparing to original image size. As waterdrop expanding distortion gradually changed to zero. Waterdrop size predefined from 1 to 100 px, defined amount of drops placed randomly over image and expanding with defined speed. After reaching maximum size waterdrop reappear randomly at different coordinates. Each waterdrop surrounded by subwave.

Subwaves width and color

Subwaves width should be below 100 px, for better visual perfomance its better to keep subwaves width under 12 px. Actually subwaves processed in same way as waterdrops, just with inverted distortion. Its possible to define color transformation for subwaves. With carefully designed Color and Color grade its possible to greatly improve visual effect from waterdrops. With Color grade close to zero applied color will appear as solid color, with grade values like 100 or about it applied color will appear more like half-transparent transformation.

Other settings
