(Actually, it is showing, but only in form of some vinnetting - darker corners). I've also seen the effect of some of the shape being cut off. I don't know why this happens.

I must admit that before trying it I couldn't figure how the "thing" you mount before the lens would not be visible. I made mine, I've tried it. It works, but I still can't figure out why it does not appear on the picture when it is on the lens. And one more little thing that I would love to have an answer on: I have used a star shape for my custom bokeh, but sometimes on some of the bokeh, you can not see the entire star, it is cut. You can see this here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/rideyourlife/sets/72157609151216143/ Thanks for the video tutorial!

This was your moment of tutorial Zen for this week. But yes. One take. No editing. Not necessarily the best way to make a tutorial. Hehe. This was your moment of tutorial Zen for this week.

If you find yourself short of things to do one day, you may consider doing some selective speeding-up of the less information carrying bits, like attaching the bits of tape etc. Common trick in how-to's from makezine.com and the like.
