Does that plugin work at all with Windows XP? I sure don't want to waste my energy on learning a new language!
Sylvia | Just download GIMP and you won't have too. LOL
Again, GIMP's for free. I still find it quite useful (and my comfort zone is with the GIMP). |

| | Patricia... Well, I decided to erase the natural landscape and with my imagination I created a wrong color palette over this nice photo! Very easy to destroy the nature |

| | Pat, you created a mood of danger in your picture, great
Steve, very nice artistic look (I think ,a frame in one color will look nicely with
this photo, but of course it is my personally mind, so please forget it )
Here my version of this great photo
I used Gimp |

| | Thamks...yeah, wasn't too sure about the frame. Mostly I just put a thin black one on an image. I now have a nice frame maker program and you can turn them out so quickly that I really didn't take the time to choose a better, or more complimentary color.

| | No, not smudged as you folks refer to it. Sort of an off-beat version of the technique which I continue to work on with combinations of programs and plugs. I think this one involved Gertrudis and some Buzz layering and the ever popular blend layer(s).
And thanks.

| | | Patricia,
I really like what you did with Lucius -- it creates a lot of tension.
Thanks, also, for your kind comments.

Jeff....Thanks for your comment...I really like the lucis art filter...a fun one to play with...
I also have paint engine...but i am trying to actually paint in Painter and Photoshop CS2 among others...it gives some great effects though...
