Thanks for your help. I think I got what I wanted. Its camera tricks. I saw your file and I did change the path last night but something must of been wrong I did it again just now and the Image shows up perfect. If you look stright forward you see no wavy lines. But if You move the camera around you get the lines. Ok this is what I wanted. I got it. Thank you so much for your help. I only posted the E-mail because He talks in code. I guess my only real question left if it is one. Would there be a way to render it out wireframe style ?!?

Well, I went to that odforce.net and could not really get the detailed help I needed. So I paid the guy that did the cover art. $50 bux. Well, I am going to upload the zip file. The renders he did look alot different then the cover art but I think thats because It was the same image used over and over. Well he told me this.
*******Hi Bruce,
The errors are normal between different versions of Houdini. I'm using
the new h9.1 download. It's “normal” and can usually be ignored.
You need to adjust the number of copies in the copy SOP.
The cover art image on my DVD has more black in it than your images, so
there are greater areas will less visible. The cover art is actually
just a wire frame screen grab and not a nice, clean mantra render.
The image of yours with the eye is the best because the detail is
larger. The other two images would require a smaller crop on the main
part of the image. Or, increase the number of vertical lines (vertical
Copy SOP) and number of points in the top “line” SOP.
I renamed your images to be the same name with four digit padding. This
is how you would do this with a moving animation.
You can to to /img/img1 and just set the file COP to read only one
picture and not a sequence.*******
Well when I load up the file. My screen is black. I can not see any image.
As you can see his file path is CDOCUME~1/garman/MYDOCU~1/job/VOL/Bruce Docktor/textures/bruce_texture.$F4.jpg
How do I get my images to show up???
Also I am attaching a picture of the effected I wanted. But if you look at the renders he made in the .zip are different. I Think I pissed him off when I said something in the Email about it looking like crap thats why he said send more money before you call me. I am going on 3 months to get this effect and $100 later still no go.

My order got FLAGED…RIGHT????????
What ever you do don't place your ORDER on a laptop runing a pciII card.
The satellite tells them the IP address is 1000 miles away and will NOT send you the links. That pisses me off.

edward, Can you please modify This hip file that i am about to post please? I had my main file branched off and I don't know were to every plug in those #'s
I want you to take a look and Line #2 and the nodes. Because I copyed them from the Hip file Lines_with_noise hip that was posted above. Aliases and Variables Take a look None of the options are there anymore. The ones that let you set the noise ect It flat out is gone. Now I am really desperate and I am going to post this so called solve all problems its right in front of my face Hip file from the DVD. I won't post the footage but I am going to post the file. I will Send one last E-mail to acky letting him know what I have done out of respect and if he wants it removed I will but I feel that this is going no were fast. People are saying do this do that edit this edit that but are not really giveing me a compete hip file or somethin to look at. I am only getting bits from so many hip files. The lines_with noise.hip file looked great i think only problem is I can't get my image to work in that file. ^^^Yes edwards i know what you said. I just had the file split and am not sure what to edit. I fixed the file. I am now going to post the E-mail that Acky sent me and maybe someone can de-bunk the code.

I looked at your file. Some basic things you need to add.
First, you need to transfer the color information to the line width,
which is done with a ‘width’ attribute. You'll only see the width in
the rendering.
1. Add an “attributeCreate” sop AFTER the point SOP.
2. set the variable name to be “width”
3. Set the first value to be $CR
4. Render.
The width information goes directly to the shader at render time and
only works on lines, not surfaces. You never see the width in the
viewport, only the render view.
You should also apply a shader, a camera and lights or the render will
be black. I would suggest the clay shader.
He sent more but It was just telling me to change the W to w

Fuck
I have uploaded MY hip file. I will tell you what I see in your file and you can correct were I am wrong when I say the following. ( i changed the pic for better seeing Problems are the same.
#1. In my file you will see that I copyed your nodes from one project over to mine thinking I could just link my file to your nodes you will see that did not work.
#2. IF you copy YOUR
$TX + noise((($TX+0)*$my_noise_freq)+$T*$my_noise_speed,$TY,$TZ) * $my_noise_amp
and
$TY + noise($TX,(($TY+0)*$my_noise_freq)+$T*$my_noise_speed,$TZ) * $my_noise_amp
INTO my nodes MY picture goes BLACK. WHY? It does not go black on the butterfly hip that was posted for training.
#3 Correct, I changed my variables to read the same as yours
.53
.7
4
.18
This does nothing for my image. Then I saw it. yes fokes then one thing that up till now I had no idea about and when cut and pasted into MY nodes still made my image fail and get the red lines of death
72 * $my_grid_res
48 * $my_grid_res
I have my points just set to 100. I thought that setting them to 300 would do something but nothing. Never the less when you take my hip file and cut and past that information the image goes black. But not on the butter fly. (even tho it does not change the image the fact that it does not go black means there is something wrong my my project. I don't know what it is. I am going to guess my_noise_speed,$TZ) * $my_noise_amp is the problem I have no idea what nodes to re name so it works I mean I don't know shit you know what i mean. My nodes are named something different and I don't know what to re name or were those names came from?

Come on H masters. It would take you 5 mins to do this effect yet after weeks I can't get it. Someone tell me how I can get those wavy lines like on the cover. It seems like alot of people have the DVD. It seems like he has 3 noise nodes going on and I don't know what #'s to key in plus my image just turns black so meh.
