Hi Colette - This is very interesting and I like it! Great effects and as Murry says it just drips down the monitor. It is refreshing to see some playing here once in awhile. Now I'm curious what you did, but if you are like me, who keeps track of play.

cheers - bill #426552

Colette M. Metcalf March 16, 2004

Hi Bill, Thank you!!! I used levels, under filters, distort, polar coordinates, then I used dry brush, sepia, and then an overlay. Then in PhotoImpact, I used emphasize. I hope I got it all right!! Thanks again!! #426753
