Yes it is from Filter Forge. The responses thus far have served the purpose of dissuading me from using this particular filter.

Well after seeing the BIG pic that Doug posted I would change my vote to both, not just holes. Funny how I was just looking at this plug-in today. Working on code to use PS PIs in Omega. At the moment this is MY work and not a scheduled task. Adobe has made this a real PITA for other "host" applications. Lots of reverse engineering. My wife says I have been taking to myself all week.

Your section looked immediately like a puffy quilt my grandma might have made...I saw no paint peeling whatsoever.
Then, I looked at Doug's Filter Forge sample where the entire lifesaver was shown...and it looked immediately like peeled paint and then just as quickly switched back to puffy quilt on me.
So, I guess I have your perceptive qualities - and yes, I'm wearing glasses too.

If the cracks were not continuous and had portions of unbroken paint on the paths of the cracks then the illusion of being puffy or quilted would not be present no matter how one looks at the image. Just a thought.

It isn't a matter of re-rendering it. I've already attempted numerous changes and they all produce the same illusion. The filter can be edited to alter the results in a large number of ways, but that would really be in the province of the original author to address. It was authored by one of the principals of Filter Forge and they have told me that they do not see what I am talking about.
Ironically, the filter is currently ranked as the fourth most popular filter in their library of 4,102 filters.

That's pretty ironic alright . . . I'd get the Machine Wash Volume I for the best paint peeling effect. . . !

well the top of the image doesn't match the lower.. on top the effect laps over the edge of that ring. that makes it look like a flat printed graphic,, while on the bottom ring area it looks like it is raised well above the surface.. Thus it does both ,, looks like a flat surface and raised 3d type effect..
In fact the lower left quadrant,, it has what looks like a piece of paper lapping over the edge and drooping down onto the lower surface..
I wonder if changing the lighting effects would help..
Not sure what effect you are wanting,, but would the DreamSuite autoeffects crack paint help ya..

Neither your suggestion or Replicator's suggestion can generate a seamless tile which is the main reason I use Filter Forge. With Replicator's suggestion I would also be unable to modify the size and amount of the peel as well as generate images at the size I use.
