Great work on this one Joe, Ann was right I am also in awe, I'll have to check out the tool also, maybe even use it as it worked really well on this image. I remember you telling me how distracting the bg's were so creative work again Joe. #7195652

Thanks,Dave. I tried a variety of thinks to make the background look right. I thought this had the best effect. This is under the blur tool. There are 3 options and this one was fingerpaint. #7196118
