I was afraid of that. Wow! that's one nice "action." "Script" in PSP.

Anyone want to tackle a simulation of it for for PSP?

Thanks for the nice comments on my version of the boat.

maybe you can write the steps ?
(almost there are many possible ways to achieve an effect, so I believe, it is possible
to do in PSP and Gimp something "near" )

Steve - as usual very nice

Actually they're known as Narrowboats. Their width is constrained by the width of the locks they have to pass through, on the canals for which they were designed to operate.

Nice picture, like almost everyone's renditions.

I'd just been watching a program on Satellite about canals, so it seemed serendipitous that a few minutes later I saw your picture.

They mentioned the fact about Birmingham having more canals than Venice as well.

Seems strange that Birmingham should have so many canals, but then its in a pretty central location, tied to pottery, engineering and a whole lot of other industries, so I don't suppose we should be so surprised.

As Patricia has already said, we tend to call them barges in Leeds, but the programme insisted the correct term is Narrowboat, so I defer to their greater knowledge.

Barbara, I am certainly open to suggestions here.

I have not seen a step-by-step break-down of Effie, so that would have to be my first priority. Then find out from another PSP user what they have substituted for some of the PS filters...ansiotropic for instance...in PSP.

Not a number one priority, but sometimes effects are just really different and outstanding. And you want to add them to your graphics software. There seem to be shelves of PS books for all kinds of image manipulation, but although I still am happy with PSP, I am really frustrated when I see these great tutorials and actions for PS posted here and can't use them.

Can you tell me which version of PS first started using actions? It is far above my hobby budget to pay for the newest version of PS.

I have a few Photoshop filters which work well in both PSP and PS, but not the diffuse filter that contains ansiotropic.

And thanks much for your nice words.

Steve
