| | | | | | | | | | | | | This is what the original post should look like.
In the past couple of months, I've been taking various pictures of different
backgrounds, specifically for these pictures. Last night, after playing
around with Photoshop for a long time, I finally figured out how to put
pictures of my castle things on those backgrounds. I have a couple of airship
pictures with clouds in the background to make it look like it's flying. Here
they are if you want to take a look at 'em:

Please let me know what you think.

Pretty nice, although a bit jaggy around the edges. (Perhaps some of that is
from a bit too high jpg compression?)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hey Wilson,
Nice job with these! You got them looking pretty smooth.
I really need to get Photoshop. (I've been telling myself that for about six
months now.) My silly MGI PhotoSuite is worth what I paid for it (i.e.
nothing).
I especially like the one with Flare, and the sunset pic... they look more
relaxed and natural, less forced; the one with Gage seems a tad forced,
because it seems like there would be something behind him (what he's standing
on... the airship?)
Great job, in all!

Speaking of paying nothing -- Corel's PhotoPaint [1] for Linux will be a
free download Any Day Now. (Sometime this summer.) The full CorelDraw suite
will be for pay, but the Photoshop-clone component will be free.
$500 will buy an awful lot of Lego!
[1] haven't used it for years, but it was pretty good back then. From what
I've heard, it's quite competitive with photoshop these days.

I use Corel PhotoPaint 8 (for Windows), and I'm quite happy with it. As
far as I can tell, it has all the same functions as PhotoShop. (Most, if
not all, Adobe PhotoShop plugins work with PhotoPaint too)

I was wondering what people would think of that one. I kind of envisioned him
on the summit of a mountain. That one was the first one I did and I thought
it'd look pretty cool, the dark clouds behind an evil guy.

Thanks.
