No I did not at any time suggest that people should not use it any more - and I am really unsure why/how it came across like that.
I was merely lamenting the fact of the dwindling user base - which I can only judge by the number of images posted on facebook/DA/FF/flickr and so on.
I think it is a great piece of software - really I do and since I am more of a programmer than a GUI person I absolutely love it.
But as lycium said - I think I was the only person posting images in the Structure Synth facebook group in 2015 and yes, it has no massive user base but it seems that even the people who are/were interested have moved on to use other software.
As to what the image is there for - the script was created with structure synth.
I had an exchange with tatasz over at DA (my DA user name is kronpano) about it.
So just to make sure - I like it when people use Structure synth and can only encourage them to do so.
P.S.: ~lycium : hope it was not my English that let me down here - I have been living on this UK island for - well lets just say too many years. Just when I thought I got the grips with the language something like this happens
So to make it clear here is the code for the script on the scroll - it was then put on a background using GIMP.
