“World of DS106 Tiny Planet,” animated GIF by @aforgrave<\/p><\/div>\n

So, back in the day you could make some pretty cool “Tiny Planet” photos using the iPhone app, Tiny Planet Photos<\/a>. I had a bit of inspiration to try out the app (it was still on my phone) but ran into some real problems in getting something like what I remember from back when.<\/p>\n

Along the way, I abandoned the Tiny Planet Photos app, and turned to the Internet for some instruction on how to do a #TinyPlanet photo myself using photoshop. I found “How to Turn a Smartphone Panorama Into a \u2018Tiny Planet\u2019 Photo<\/a>” by Dan Paterson<\/p>\n

I tried a number of skies:<\/p>\n

In the end, however, I removed the yellow mask from #Prisoner106, as it was putting a big bump in the planet, and used a transparent background to generate a #tinyplanet without a sky. I then set it into the star field and decided to animate it via a bunch of rotated layers.<\/p>\n

Et, voila!<\/em> The Tiny Planet World of DS106<\/strong> was born.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
