I'm just using this now, I'm not too great at this image manipulation, but for some reason I just like the picture



I'm using Arcsoft PhotoStudio.

Edit, I seem to have misspelled preparation. oh well

I put together a new greeting on my profile page.



I get the feeling I'll be changing these as often as I do avatars.

I really like that image Umbrax. Excellent work.

Marvel put up some new cover images today and I had to use it.

Here is the original image.

Those comic images sure are powerful.

Hey Umbrax...

You have real skills my friend...!!!!

Ever do any Silver Surfer??

Here is my meager attempt...

Good thing Gimp has help pages.
I'll figure it out eventually. In the meantime, do you post the tags in the comments section using regular picture urls, how do you upload them.
I'm afraid, I will have to rope some unsuspecting teenager in as a hostage to tutor me on the gimp.
I want a tag and I want to know how to post it.

You computer people don't realize some of us spent too much time in the bush, terribly naive as to the extent of my ignorance in how to's.

I did this for you oldsters....

clearwater,

1. Pick a picture, one I am making or really anything that catches your eye..

2. I have found that keeping it within say 450 - 500 pixels keeps you within the size guidelines just fine...

3. Then host it somewhere (upload it to)... I use Imageshack

4. "Copy" the "Direct Link To Image"

5. In the profile of the user you want to comment to, type...

[ img] (Without the Space)

6. "Paste what you copied after this then type

[ /img] (Again without the space)

That is it, your done and your picture should show up...

Here is an example of what you will see at Imageshack

Ok, so here's my try at this. Thank goodness for layers.

I got to get better at doing these....
