These
web sites have personal
Bryce Galleries
and Projects.
| |
These
web
sites
can
provide
free
space
to post
your
Bryce
works.

You
do not
really
need
any
of these
software
programs
to use
Bryce,
but
once
you
export
your
Bryce
picture,
you
may
want
to do
some
post
work
on the
image.
You
will
find
that
most
people
that
use
Bryce
also
have
a graphics
program.Here
are
some
of the
more
popular
software
programs
used.

If
you
would
like
to change
your
digital
Bryce
images
into
a hard
copy
photograph,
there
are
many
online
services
that
can
do it,
from
Kodak
to Walmart.
If
you
have
a JPEG
file
made
into
a photo,
you
need
to make
or render
it large
enough.
The
photos
of course
are
usually
on Kodak
paper
and
are
usually
glossy,
except
for
16x20
and
larger,
which
most
times
have
a mat
finish.
Here
are
the
pixel
sizes
for
photograph
sizes.
(these
are
just
guides,
check
with
the
service
you
intend
to use
to be
sure). |

*The
major
difference
between
Photoshop
Elements
and
the
full
Photoshop7
or CS
applications
( besides
the
$ 100.00
vs.
$ 600.00
price)
is that
Elements
does
not
have
CMYK
support.
If you
are
going
to do
work
for
a printing
project
or professional
print
company,
you
will
want
the
full
program.
If you
are
going
to primarily
use
JPEG's
and
photos,
or web
based
RGB
work,
the
Elements
is fine.

(Note
that most links
on this page will
open in a new window)
This
web page is
to help provide
information
for Bryce
users. Most
of the links
and content
are specific
to that software.
Usually, if
you are like
me, when you
first get
Bryce ( I
started with
version 2
back around
2000), you
play around
with it, make
a few quick
scenes or
weird abstracts.
Then later
you want more,
so you think,
just what
can I do with
this program?
Well,
that is what
this page
is about.
A short, one
page start,
to give you
a general
idea where
to seek some
help, get
some things
to spark an
idea or project,
and show you
what others
have done
with Bryce.
There are
hundreds of
web sites
on 3D, so
this is just
the tip of
a very large
iceberg. But
it's enough
to hopefully,
wipe away
some frustration,
and give you
confidence
with the program.
It's way more
than just
a scene/terrain
maker. Even
if you are
a long time
user, you
may find this
page useful
as a quick
links page.
Enjoy! |
