Hi Kolbjørn, Kolbjørn Stuestøl (Thursday, 19.

IMHO you can safely change this (or any other) text if you think it's confusing or wrong. Most likely you will enhance that text, and if you really happen to make it worse (nobody is perfect!) someone else will be confused and will hopefully correct it. :-) > I think the average user will better understand an explanation > something like this: > > "Let the rays start at a random distance from the center.

Maybe it's a good idea to add two or three sample images (e.g. 3 images à 150x150 pixels (with reduced number of lines?)) to illustrate the effect of this option? > Perhaps adding something telling that the value 1 will result in a > circular start and that a high value will let the rays almost cower > the image. Yes, why not? Ulf -- Mißtraut denen, die da sagen, dass Gott auf ihrer Seite steht. Sie sind nur so nah ihrem Gott, weil sie so fern dem Menschen sind. -- Michael Schmidt-Salomon
