    In the Xara Gallery Forum I posted a slightly spooky portrait. I was asked about the technique and I noted I would add a mini-tutorial here. That's what I'm doing now...

    Not hard eh? The technique doesn't have to be used with faces - it can be good for other things too. The attachment below was done similarly...

    Whew! If you aimed for mysterious you got it with this one! [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img] Don't know what you started with before the transformation--and that's neat that it's not apparent. Very misty, like moonlight through trees or something...ominous red in the corner...better write to Dean Koontz quick about the new novel! [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] Brrrrrrrr--a chill here!
