Soooooooo embarrassed. This is very difficult to figure out how to use if one has no background in photo-shop et al. Oh well, one must start somehow with something. Watching a tutorial or two might help (duh ;)

I need photo-shop for dummies. 101. Stat!

It's got a great feel to it :)

nice try

Please tell me that one day soon I will understand all this and know what I'm doing!?!

By the looks of it, yeah, you will.

Well, Aviary image editing isn't much like Photoshop anyway, in my opinion. I can work wonders in Photoshop, but I tend to end up with garbage here. We both need to hit the tutorials. :) So, don't look for Photoshop tutorials, as they won't help you here. Look through the Aviary tutorials. Just click 'tutorials' in the navigation bar at the top of the page.

One thing, though... If you shrink down the image, it should look a great deal better. After all, I clicked on the thumbnail to look at this because, in the thumbnail, this looked like something of Ansel Adams quality. Don't sell yourself short! :)

Are you kidding me?!?! This is brilliant! BRILLIANT!!!! i love it and i can see you up in the charts one day with meowza and mpeutz!!!

OMGoooooooodness! BLIUSH!!!! Thank you every one ! I'm gobsmacked that I'd even have a peep from anyone. What a wonderful and extremely kind surprise.

I'm particular grateful for the intell. ! Now I'm mentally better sorted to study the tutorials and will not worry about my lack of photoshop skills (which I am rectifying too mind).

If I could give each one of you a personal hug for your kind replies, I would do so. In its stead please consider yourselves cyber-hugged on this Thanksgiving Day, with my gratitude.

Di.
