First I can tell you it's much better than I have come up with. Has more of the detail that I am looking for. Guess that is what I am most anxious to achieve with this program is more detail while still using the presets in auto paint. I seem to get no decent detail or so much that it doesn't resemble art at all.

If you care to tell me what presets you used I'll try them and see if I can make my stuff better.

I really appreciate your interest.

First, I selected the sky and added a touch of blue to it.

I didn't use any special settings, just those that the application set depending on which style of painting I selected in the right hand pull down (under "Auto-painting")

Then after that was finished I went to the "Apply Surface Texture" and selected
"Image Luminance" under the "USING" pulldown. The settings in that area were those that i found most pleasing.

I am enclosing two screen shots of the settings I used for this latest rendition.

Thanks for the help. I'll certainly try what you sent and have suggested. Maybe I will even come up with something useable....
