+ | Recently it seems that Adrian Secord has removed his Weighted Voronoi Stippler program from his website. Another stippler based upon Adrian's work and which produces SVG as output may be found at [http://www.saliences.com/projects/npr/stippling/stippling.html http://www.saliences.com/projects/npr/stippling/stippling.html]. | ||

Unfortunately, there is very little in the way of ready-to-use software packages or plugins for automatically producing stippled images. While tutorials exist, they largely focus on reproducing a specific style of stippled art work (e.g., Hedcut). Such techniques tend to be inappropriate to TSP art as they lack control over the number of stipples used. And, too many stipples lead to artwork which is too detailed for most pen tips. Existing software which permits control over the number of stipples tends to be "research grade". That is, the software's primary design goal was not ease of use, clarity, or robustness. With that in mind, OS X and, maybe, Windows users as well, have the option of trying out Adrian Secord's weighted Voronoi stippler [1]. | Unfortunately, there is very little in the way of ready-to-use software packages or plugins for automatically producing stippled images.
