I've only been a member for a few days and I am already having a ball.

I just dropped the image into photo shop, created a background and adjusted thresholds.

Great work with the rainbow background and reverse image w/Threshold application. Elegant, yet uncomplex.
Glad you're having fun.

GrafixD:

The jagged crop + softening of Facet and Median made for a very interesting combination.

Hats off to both of you.

Hello Cardmnal, nice to meet you

That's marvellous, a creative mix for certain.

Thanks Neve, T.Paul. T, your color image is superb.
Cardmnal, Grafixd, Welcome to our forum.

Ok, did my best too, one can only learn by trying. PSP7 used here.

First:
Lightening up a bit, then used the paintbrush tool (5, 11, 43, 3, 50, softness 20) (I have a Dutch version of Paint Shop Pro, don't know all the names of the tools in English).
Saved that version.

Second:
Took the saved photo, turned it into B&W, used 'lightening and brightness tool twice (37/44), second time as a layer. Mixed the layers about 60% and then I lost track of what I did next.

Have to learn to write down each change.

And have to learn to work on a resized photo, this doesn't show quite what I've made. Or have to look up how to put that thing in where you can click on to see a larger photo.

Life isn't always easy, is it.

re: "One can only learn by trying."
Absolutely true and there's no "failure" in this forum. Only opportunities and new experiences.

re: "I have a Dutch version of Paint Shop Pro, don't know all the names of the tools in English"
That is a challenge. So far you're doing just fine!

re: "Have to learn to write down each change."
It takes a little getting used to. When you consider the value others derive from your experiences, the extra effort is worth it.

re: "Life isn't always easy, is it?"
True. But it can be fun.

Well, I thought that was a good idea too but I soon learned that I don't know how to Dragonize so I just fiddled around.

Titia, your sketch is very nice. Excellent work.

Warp Swirl; then my usual Impressionist/Paint Engine combo followed by some GIMP processing (bump mapping and Retinex Overly). Also added a Clothify Script-fu for the canvas texture.

CJ Swartz · #43 11-04-2005, 12:04 AM

Needed a touch of sun...

palms1 · #44 11-04-2005, 02:23 AM

Duv Your not on your own, i do not know how to draganize, we will have to wait to see if Ro is reading,
Cj looking at his skin i think he has had to much sun ( although the colours are excellent
