Ah... but don't stop there. :D

An easy addition, could be to allow kids to employ
bitmap patterns and gradients within the graphic oval.

Another easy addition is allow them to use Ink effects
in the image myImage.

(By the way, I found some impressive bugs
on the xcompmgr composite manager while
playing with Structural Blends)

The possibilities to create astounding and beautiful 
images increase exponentially.

Now imagine what the kids would do if you allow
them to stack multiple kaleidoscopic images
with different ink effects applied to each.

I know the answer: An Art exhibition! 
Printed or in a digital display, these images
created by the uninhibited mind of children
will be a real treat for the senses

Remember that you could add multiple undo and redo.
as the user would like to see how the image will look
before undoing and after redoing.

You could show the user how the image will look
before using Undo or Redo using a scrolling field
or a scrolling group to show these thumbnails.
It would be really easy to create a multiple undo/redo
history setting the text of myImage to a saved version
stored as a custom property of the thumbnail image! :D

I made a stack to test this idea and it works.
Tell me if you want to include it in your stack and
I will clean up the test stack and send it to your mail.

Have a nice weekend!
