Wow! I though sepia and fine grain was enough. =)

Revver doesn’t like one of us today, because I just get spinning wheels, a black screen and then it asks me if I want to play the video again.
Oops, nevermind. Played on the third attempt…
Nice use of the soft focus tool. Photoshop doesn’t have that, but there are a myriad of ways to accomplish it.

A friend just pointed me here- love the concept. I have a great Nikon film camera and a crappy 3.2 meg digi and a 1.3 meg cell camera. I recently did a test to see which crappy digi cameras took the best shot…it was a toss up really. But I have done some pretty cool things with my camera phone pictures in Paintshop Pro X2. I know not as cool as photos shop but its getting there
Love the blog, I’ll be visitng more

In Photoshop, layers, feathering and gaussian blur would be the easiest, I think. You could use the lens blur too, instead of the gaussian.
If you search on Google, you’ll see a number of ways people do it. Some of them make it more complicated than it needs to be, I think.

I learned that video doesn’t work…I also wil check out the dcr tips because I only have photoshop. Dude, your profile is so friggin’ funny. Glad you understood my humor. Peace!!
Pete, could the problems with the Revver video be with the way you are embedding it? I haven’t had a problem with this video since the first day I mentioned it. I do notice that it begins playing once I open this page, rather than needing to click “Play” first. I wonder if the autoplay may be causing problems somehow?

That’s pretty cool, I’ve never worked with Picasa before, I have all that I need, even though it takes forever sometimes.
Chica’s last blog post..What techniques do you use?
Picasa rings a bell. I do use Photoshop but I think other applications can be useful at time too. I used to create a lot of digital art (you can see them here: http://www.affordable-art.co.nz/category.pasp?categoryid=86) and I used a raft of applications to accomplish the final image. So thanks for introducing a new programme to many of us – worth a look it seems.
