The world mourns us

[Lorraine]

I received a PowerPoint presentation that's going around the Internet. I took all of the images and reduced the sizes. Created a new Paint Shop Pro image and added each photo as a new layer. I rotated certain images to create a frame effect. I set all the layers to soft light blend mode. I added the final layer of what once was the World Trade Center in normal mode, and cloned the edges of that image to bleed into the countries who are mourning us. Final touch up was to soften the edges of each picture that touches the WTC, add the text and clarify the final image.

It's not the most professional job I've ever done, but it helped me cope with this horror.

Thank you all.

Lorraine,

An excellent reminder of all the love and support from humane people all around the globe -- Good job!

So many of the world's people, even citizens of former enemy states, have shown that they share our grief -- your image is a testament to that Humanity.
