im guessing you made a pipe and transformed it into a vine shape and yeah.

how did you make it so smooth when it curves?

........the pen tool

no, i made a pointy square with marquee tool and perspective, and then used the wave filter. Shear works better though. Pen tool yea that right, i'm very clumsy with that tool . But yea that's just the shape

Oh man, good christian, when i launch my site i hope you dont get mad, because my interface has a vine sort of like yours in it. Nice job, it looks awesome. I like it in your sig.

That's no problem, but good you mentioned it now
I don't own that, endopod.com gave me the idea.

its pretty sweet looking. Sitting here, I just got an idea of how to use that technique in an interface, but it would resemble endopod too much.

Everything that would use vines like this would look like a endopod "ripp-of". That's because his site is so unique and it's hard to copy his style. 2advanced on the other hand has basic geometric shapes and graphics that can be copied easier. That's why "everyone" started to use it, because it wasn't to hard and it looked cool.

What was the idea anyway?
