    Bob what ever you did to make this such a superb Drop Cap was awe inspiring. Well done Bob.
    EDIT: I really like what you did.

What it does show is having an idea and the determination to make it happen. Well done Max.
    Thanks Larry for your kind words, they make me very proud and incite me me to go on and improve myself.

    I share your thoughts, many people think that it's easy to create graphics by computer, but the creativity is own of man, computers help only to process data.
    I'm one of Magix.info moderators (the official forum of Magix), and every day I "fight" with persons that only want to click on a button to create a film.

    I also used a grungy texture, to which I gave a fractal plasma transparency to get the aged effect.
