Movin' on UP...
« on: April 17, 2005, 11:14:05 AM »
So, am I entitled to have senior moments now?  LOL  >:D

Made it in less than a year of posting...whoo-hoo!   ;)  Okay, I might be risking my head in posting these, but I don't think I've ever shared them here, so in honor of this auspicious moment {cough}...what the hey. If I've violated any guidelines feel free to give me a good sound spanking [after Mr. Gothick gets done whipping me with Julia's medallion, of course {wink, big cough}]   ::)   ;D

Anyhoo...these are just some DS-related photo-manips. I did (gotta get used to these programs somehow - LOL):







Damn roses...  ;)

Heather,

Those are just fantastic... You've definately learned Photoshop very well and putting it to very good use.

Good grief!!!!  However do you do it?  I suppose you substitute their faces on other bodies, but it all fits so naturally, I can't believe that's it! :)

Wow, thanks guys... :-*   Photoshop is phun, I guess. LOL
But yeah, it involves a wee bit more than just switching heads (chuckle)...there's a ton of funky effects you can achieve with that and similar programs, once you figure out what you can do with the multitude of tools at your disposal (many I have yet to master...still learning, and still like to do artsy things hands-on more often than not). And whenever I can incorporate a bit of my obsession {cough}...I mean DS, when I'm practicing...hell, makes it all the more worthwhile!   ;D

Still learning and trying,

Heather, that wacky wench from W. PA  ;)

Congratulations, Dear!  ya made it!

Hope you've seen the candid photo (dating to '68) of Grayson at a party between HHA and JF.  She's beaming like somebody's Mom as both men pretend to attack her.  In one hand is a drink and in the other, the inevitable cigarette!

You just want more shirtless DB pics, that's all... LOL   >:D  Thanks guys...I thought I'd never make it to senior level--You're too sweet.  ;)

Ya know Steve...I'm not quite sure.   :-[  That sounds SO familar, though...I can almost see it. Is it in one of the books, or on a site, or something (sorry - my brain's in a tizzy. Too much studying - Chuckle.)?

I was wondering how long it would take for this divine Julia/Barn/Nicholas creation to show up on here.
That flower in Nicholas' hair.....LOL.  Heather, you KILL me.  This is your finest work so far, in my humble opinion.  It has a certain je ne sais quoi....an exquisite otherness.... (huh?)  [hdscrt]

love
CLC

PS  SO...now that you've reached the pinnacle of Senior status, where do you go from here?  What plans do you have for the rest of your life??  [lghy]

PPS  I wish you'd do something with Julia and Quentin -- something thought provoking.  (Or just provoking).

 ;D

Keep in mind that after Senior Poster status comes DSF God/Goddess status, and no member has reached that pinnacle yet. Heather and everyone else still have that glorious height to look forward to and much to work toward.  [wink2]

Well, deep down I was hoping that when I got that coveted 4th star a Grayson head would pop onto my screen and tell me how I'd won an all-expenses paid trip to the fest, but...sigh...oh well. LOL

I'd love to DO Quentin - who wouldn't?   ;)

Just kidding...LOL

Actually, I'd love to try but the only screen caps I have of Quentin are as a ghost... if you wanted something more animated (expression wise or otherwise), maybe some kind soul could lend me some lovely screen shots of Quentin?  [zzwhip]

Wenchily,

Heather  ^-^

These are great Heather!  Did you upload them here or just hotlink them from your own site?  I love working with PSP and understand the addiction.  ;D
