Fun With Photoshop
Well, I reckon that, since I've been assigned (as a newly deemed MOD) this here Lounge  , I probably ought to start a thread or two of possible interest. This is a bit of a spin-off to a thread started a ways back by fellow community member and artistic talent (and Priest aficianado), RiffAddict. This thread is a call to any community members who have had some fun with the powerful, yet intuitive program, Photoshop (or similar... StingX, I know you have your favorite Photoshop equivalent). Attached is my current desktop pattern. I have also attached the original DijCam photo that I started with. Our cat, Pearl, was laying lazily on the floor last Saturday night with her feet and rear side against a half-wall on our upper floor. If you bent over the wall (staring straight down), it kind of looked like she was dancing atop a wall. So that's what i tried to recreate. The semi-transparent black strip along the left side was incorporated to help organize desktop files along the left side of my monitor.
If you have a fun graphics type project that you've worked on, feel free to post it in this thread. I'm interested to see what kind of artistic talents are interwoven in the G101 community.

Wow, I did not get this until I opened my Yahoo! email account and saw my email notification that this was posted, in which it appeared correctly (the image above was supposed to appear as the image below (a screen capture of my email).
Pretty damn clever!

Cool stuff guys! I think if you put your ascii in code tags it will parse correctly.

I thought paint shop was something my kids used to draw pictures with and deplete my ink cartridges printing it all!! I don't have a clue what any of that stuff is for or what I'd use it on!
