I think your description sounds good - trying to make the 'only' photo more flattering, as if it were better set up/lighted etc, a good photo of the same subject.

Will I take the compliment on the age range you offered? LOL This is me last week, at 24

lol It was about 3am however!

I guess, seeing as I'm here and all, in my opinion when I have a look at what you all do, I'll be judging based on 'does that still look like me', and knowing me I guess I have a better idea of what I *can* look like if I bother, lol.

I love the idea to retouch a member's pic, really, I was wondering if could be possible just for fun to make a challenge to retouch our own photo, it could be fun.

Ok, I'll ask my female coworker to remove your bra strips, that way I will not get close to that area to respect

Hi aylaah...I was just wondering if you want the bra in or out of the picture?

Alas, mother nature has not been so kind to me

Hey guys, I just noticed that there are a few entries that haven't got the member names as the file names. You may want to edit and reload your files to make the voting process easier... by the looks, it's gonna be hard enough as it is!!! For instance, if you call your entry Aylaah I'm might give the votes to Aylaah instead of you!

Hooroo for now,

Peth

HannibalVector · #21 04-03-2006, 07:09 PM

Wow, a lott of entries allready, this one is going fast.
I did noticed btw that some of you don't have de required size. Ferdberfel, something went wrong again. I hope you can fix in time.
Aylaah, what exactly are the bra straps? I thought it was the purple straps, am I wrong?

Peth · #22 04-03-2006, 08:19 PM

Hannibal, I'd be a wee bit concerned if Aylaah was wearing her bra over the top of her blouse! Ithink whatever's underneath is safe to be regarded as bra of nature.

Ferdberfel, what programme are you using? If it's photoshop then you can use the save for web option to solve your probs.

At this rate of entries voting could take another month!

aylaah · #23 04-03-2006, 09:26 PM

The purple thin straps are a dress, with bra-like straps so I understand the confusion - the black ones are the real straps though.

Oops I didn't name my file properly either, so I better do that too, thanks for the reminder!

Janet Petty · #24 04-03-2006, 09:40 PM

Too late. I already made the black straps the dress straps. I suppose it doesn't matter in that we can't see the below.

Nice picture. You look young for your age. That's a compliment btw.

Janet

aylaah · #25 04-03-2006, 10:06 PM

You're absolutely right, it doesn't matter at all!

Thanks for the compliment, lol

Peth · #26 04-05-2006, 07:33 PM

Cathsaigh, very funny dude. Aylaah, what have you been up to?

aylaah · #27 04-05-2006, 10:23 PM

Huh? Don't understand the context of the question, up to with regard to what? lol Its too early

(1:30pm, I'm only 'alive' after midnight, haha)

I'm loving the entries though, its nice to see you didn't all go oooh no way, and leave it lol.

HannibalVector · #28 04-05-2006, 10:41 PM

Hahaha Aylaah, what have you been up to that there is a mugshot of you!

aylaah · #29 04-05-2006, 10:54 PM

Gawd my family will love that one, mummy is a criminal!!! lol

Ahh, Nancy, I'm nearly twice as old as you both, and all I can say is that Mother Nature has had quite a bit of fun with me over the years. I've been twisted and pulled, and injured in the process.. as an artist I'm patient, the finished sculpture is bound to be one of beauty to a discerning eye. My husband tells me tree bark can be heartbreakingly more beautiful than flower petals, if one just stops to take in the perspective.

Ehh.. I'm thinking it's a lighting issue, but it does give me hope

I'm sure you're just lovely
