Karel Bata

Anyone here able to point me to a decent online site or two? Hopefully with a 'how to..'

Or tell me right here... :

Many thanks! :thumb

I have no experience.

Google --> Something like this?? - http://www.world3d.com/gallery.html or this http://www.vicgi.com/

They have an FAQ here - http://www.world3d.com/faqs.html

And a tutorial here - http://www.vicgi.com/lenticular-tutorials.html

Thanks.

That stuff's interesting, but I was hoping there might be some hobby-ists with a forum, maybe something here. Seems they're thin on the ground. I am surprised. Must look a bit harder.

Lenticular printing
The best tutorial on lenticular printing I have found is from vicgi ( dot ) com. They have few thorough tutorials explaining the principles and the steps in making DIY lenticular prints. For example,

1. 3D Lenticular Printing Interlacing Algorithm Illustrated Using Photoshop
2. Converting a 2D picture to a 3D Lenticular Print - Theory and Tutorial
3. The Quantitative Analysis of Stereoscopic Effect
4. Simplest Method of Making Anaglyph Images with Photoshop
5. Choosing the Right Lenticular Sheet for DIY Lenticular Printing on Inkjet Printers
6. How to Prevent Ghosting in Lenticular Printing

A couple of things come to mind. First there is a great Yahoo Lenticular Art forum where novices and professional discuss all things lenticular: https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/lenticular_art/info

Next is the 1-2 punch of SDM and SPM. These tools can be used for stereoscopic and lenticular work and are very useful. Stereo Photo Maker Stereo Data Maker

Finally if you are interested in taking 3D photos for yourself there is a great guide here: Lenticular Printing

Good luck!

Do you know how to get a rounded effect when making a 2d to 3d effect lenticular image as apposed to flat 3d effect been trying to find out how to do it but with no luck.

Can anyone tell me how to get rounded depth in a lenticular print, not flat 3d but with rounded edges around the subjects. I have been looking everywhere without any help but ive seen it on loads of prints and was told it was easy but they cannot tell me until i buy there software. I have put a link below as an example of what i mean

A bit late to the party but I believe I can be of some help if you want to create a lenticular diy style using no money except to buy the lenticular lens. I've written quite a bit of software to generate depth maps from a stereo pair and interpolate views in between the left and right image.

Here's where the software is lenticular creation software
