Bonsai Chat

Tonight I received a link for a new site called Bonsai Chat where you can construct your own virtuals by selecting a pot, trunk style and then dragging limbs and foliage into your design.

Might be even cooler if you could angle the limbs differently.

Here's the link:

http://www.bonsaichat.com/virtual.asp

Why don't we see what folks can come up with? There isn't any SAVE feature, but after you finish

1. you can ALT-PRINT SCREEN
2. paste the window into most any graphics program,
3. crop out the part with the tree
4. save it out as a jpg file and
5. attach it to a message here on the forum.

Regards,

Matt

The fact that I actually bothered to play with this thing and then save the image to post here does not speak well of my time managements skills during a busy week of teaching...

Best wishes,
Carl

It would be great if they added a larger library of different type trunks and foilage. I could use a tool like that!

Hey; This is such a cute little program but, maybe the resulting virtuals look a little scrawny. I just can't tell, maybe it's just me.
