What is Picture to People ?

"Picture to People" (P2P) is a huge Computer Graphics project. It was started to create new softwares able to make 2D drawing, 3D rendering, vexel drawing, text effects, photo effects, image filtering and other complex Computer Graphics operations. It has been made from scratch, including its low level Computer Graphics libraries like Maccala. Nowadays, most final features produced for this project are released as free online tools available from its official website. This blog talks about Computer Graphics, mainly concerning Picture to People development.

Realistic rock texts - a new example

I would like to show you another example of stone text created with the last Picture to People tool. It uses state of art, complex procedural algorithms to generate the more realistic free stone/rock text effects ever.

Despite all complexity behind the scenes, the parameters you have to set are just the ones you could easily understand. It was never so easy to create realistic stone text effects.

Compared to the previous example, I changed the stone renderer, the guide font, the background color and the rock reference colors. The result is totally different (click to enlarge).


According to users testimonies, my new stone/rock renderer is one of the most useful and exciting tools I have ever made for Picture to People project. I'm very happy with the good feedbacks I have been receiving.

You can use this amazing tool at the Stone Text page.

Realistic stone text effects

I worked very very hard to create the most recently published Picture to People tool. It's a stone renderer able to create astonishing texts made of rock/stone.

Now you can get very easily the most realistic rock text effects. Since this feature is very configurable, the amount of possible results is countless. Among the several parameters, you can select the background color and even influence the stone colors.

You can set a stone rendering type by choosing from a list with several options. The text images generated have a good 3D look and there are a good amount of useful shadow parameters too.

Below I show the kind of stone text effect you can get using this new Picture to People tool (click to see in real size).

Create your own stone/rock texts by using the Stone Text section at Picture to People official website.
