This is a great idea - thank you!
I haven't really begun to get into these puzzles for fear of the addiction - it's right up my alley and I know I can spend a lot of time on them! But the one...

Great ideas and feedback - THANK YOU all so much!
Yes, interesting perception on the red (thanks for the link on choosing colors, Danny). I was aiming for the warm autumn red, and perhaps that is...

I'm torn between the bamboo and the simple "path."
I guess I see a lot of bamboo on cards, websites, etc for Alternative Medicine, but then, I believe there are many depictions of paths/ways/roads,...

TIM: Thanks, again! I do like the font you used. Can't seem to find it, though. I don't already have it, and searching for Legacy brings up a more classic type of font. I've been experimenting...

Thank you, Tim, for your generosity! I am still mulling over ideas, but you've really captured the simplicity and serenity I was talking about.

I AM still curious as to which font Egg would...

TIM - Wow! Thank you - your design has the feel we're going for. I had just readjusted the "winding way" on mine, softened the edges, and then when comparing mine to yours - yes, TOO busy, too...

Thank you, Albacore, for your revisions and ideas. Yes, I have to adjust it for the bleed - I'm new at this and knew there was something to do about that! I'll look it up.
I like the perspective...

Hi! It's been awhile since I've been on the forum browsing everyone's wonderful work. I am on the brink of beginning a new business - an Acupuncture, Chinese Herbology & Energy Psychology Clinic, or...

Great hands, Intbel! I had given it a go awhile back, with great help from this forum. Here is my, still unfinished (I put it off and haven't had the chance to finish it) but attempt at a hand....

Thanks so much for the great tutorials, Gary!
I do each and every one of them, but didn't think to post my version of them - since I figured everyone was already doing them and seeing the results...

Yeah, by yesterday, I think I had probably overwritten the files. And my computer had been sticking and running very slowly since my file "disappeared." So I ran my registry fixer and defragmented...

Thank you both for your responses.
I've tried everything mentioned in your post to no avail. After using Unerase and Restoration, my .xar files didn't come up. And as far as I can remember, I've...

Hello.
I've just realized that I'm missing a .xar project and it may have accidently been moved to the recycle bin and deleted (I was backing up and there was a bit of shuffling of files. I still...

Thanks, Albacore! But that's not it.
I actually found it this morning: http://www.family-portrait-artists.com/

Thanks for your efforts! :D

A few months back, a link was posted to a site that taught how to simply convert a photograph (of a face) into a simple line drawing - almost making the face cartoon-like. I'm not sure if this was...

1024 x 768 on my little Dell Inspiron 600m :p

Terrific! Proportions of the human form has been one of the toughest things for me to master.
Thanks so much for this!

Happy Birthday, Drifter!
May all your wishes come true ... :D

Birthday wishes to you, Charles!
And thank you for all that you do!

Parahandy - wow, you want my work?? I'm so new! I'm honored! :p

I did forget to attach my .xar file with my palm lines before Charles added the fills, so he worked on an older version. I've...

Yes, WOW! Thanks Charles! Now that you've added that, the hand looks less "shiny" and definitely more realistic. I think I hesitated to add the "pattern" because I just didn't know where to begin....

Thanks, Albacore. Your suggestion is my next step. So far, I've only added the palm lines. Whew! Took me awhile (I have been busy with other things, too, but I'm still very slow at this ...)

I...

I'm not sure if this is what Tony is speaking of, but in Gary's Nov. '05 tutorial, he uses a method to make the scalloped edge of a postal stamp:

Thanks, Drifter!

Thanks, Amoore - you're right about the highlights being too white. I was using named colors and should have picked a darker tint. I'm trying to get the shading down with...

Yeah, I knew I needed lines, but didn't know how to make them look "natural!"
Thanks so much for your help!
