Very nice Joe. I like your technique. Also, nice job on the page curl. I've been looking for a tutorial or a plugin that will do just that. Could you tell me how you did it?

Hey Gerry I used the page curl filter in Corel Photo-Paint.

I found this site that might help you.

I have to agree here very nice.
BTW they're only noisy because they don't know the words - hence Humming Birds, obvious really.


This is my last one .......well for now.

And you have me beat. I haven't even had time to do one. My other project is taking all my time these days. But tis worth it. I haven't done any weaving for a long time. It feels good to be making something useful again.

Re: Hummingbirds

that first image looks a lot like one we did before here, i think. and i did one of the few animations i've done. at any rate, had a go again, this time doing a bit of cave painting.

Re: Hummingbirds

I see you are still going da Vinci on us. Like that look (played with it a while back but couldn't get it to look like but had fun trying).

As a side note, I'm hopeing to get my hands on the "cheaper" PS upgrade in the next few months when it's available at our new Best Buy (beats having to drive to Montgomery like I did last time). Hope to be pleasantly surprised with all the cool new features too (but don't expect me to give up on GIMP; lol).
