Oh, it's only a compact Nikon Coolpix P2, but it's my first foray into digital after my OM10......seems pretty good so far and it was on offer at PC World at £97 so I thought it was a bargain....John

Lovely photo to work with. Thanks Patricia. Here's a soft chalk version, using plaid texture in Painter.

Nice interpretation, Margaret. How did you do the outside edge effect? I especially like that.

Heh Danny and thank you. The outside edge was done in Painter using the builtin plugins - click on the little plug under the layers pallette. Choose Tear - then you can select color, margin, strength etc. The Burn choice also gives an interesting effect.

hi!!

The capacity of limitation about putting on a blog picture is too small to use, so so it's uncomfortable.
Therefore, I link....

Another attempt.
Photoshop, lotsa filters (buzz, cutout, paint daubs, watercolor), merging. Most of the filters are not visible in the final pict.

Full size JPEG here

Therese,

Thank you. Very nice picture, fun to play with. Looking at Kraig's animation I get a distinct impression that Therese is no longer 8.
