Yeah I saw those line graphics. I figured that's what was going on. Thanks.
You might want to check out Filter Forge as well. It's like the Photoshop filter system but just the filters. And the node-based editor is fun and easy, as is the online community gallery; see a filter you like, click Download, Filter Forge pulls it down, installs it and runs it immediately.
It's expensive but there's a long free demo period and if you upload filters that generate enough interest you can get a free copy.

Of course, that won't work for infinite ingame generation, but it will certainly let you design (or find in the gallery) what you are looking for and see how it's done. Then you know you are on the right track when you start coding. I highly recommend it.
My own program from which my code above was yanked can be seen at:

It may come out someday :)
Keep livin' the dream!
