    Default New Profile photo

    On my Facebook personal page I used a photo of our dishes for the cover image. Then I got the bright idea to replace my eyeball profile photo with one made from dishes. When it is small it works very convincingly I think.

    The dishes were made by a German company called Fun Factory. Then a few years back the company was purchased by a Chinese company and nothing is the same. But we love them.

    I made the white dish by desaturating the colors for that particular dish then brightening the Value just enough to make it appear white.
