Honestly, I have no clue how this happened, but I like it. I do know that there's a sepia layer set to Color Burn, somewhere in there. XD Thanks for the awesome tut! (I'm beginning to see a green theme in my stuff lately....)

Posting here, so I don't clutter up your Gallery. I've run into a problem with the Circle Text more than once. It seems to crash quite a bit. Could that be my computer, or a PDN problem? EDIT: btw, I finally did something I like. It's using a picture I took on vacation a few years ago, and using the Rain Drop tut.

Thanks for the True Blur link, I couldn't for the life of me locate it. >< For the Radial and Zoom Blurs, I did see the links in your tuts, but I got a "Page No Longer Exists" message for both of them. Are there perhaps other versions somewhere? btw, I just noticed Wild Weed. That is amazing! I got caught up in your Hidden Gallery, I totally spaced the visible one. *brain blank* lol

Awesome, thank you very much. I'll try that and see what I come up with. ^_^ For the jewel tut, it's fine and easy to follow. I just haven't come up with anything I'm happy with yet. I can't get the Radial and Zoom Blur Deluxes, so I'm working with the regular ones. Also (and I mentioned this in Helen's tut as well) I don't have the True Blur, so my orb/jewel highlight does look quite right to me. But I'm sure I'll get down with practice. ^_^ Thanks again!

barbieq, I've been looking through your gallery, and everything is so beautiful. ^_^ I'm working on following your jewel tutorial, though I haven't had much success yet. Nothing I'd show, that is. lol But I'm curious. I love the stained-glass type pictures you did (in the Older Works part), like Art Deco Plum, Feathered Star, and Lucky 13. Do you have a tutorial for that style? I would love to experiment with that style!

Thanks very much. ^_^ I considered softening the crystalizing, but once it's shrunk down to avi size, it all blurred together anyway. But for the full-sized version, I definitely agree with you. Thanks as well, barbieq25.

I couldn't figure out how to do the True Blur, or the skew for the shadow. But I did manage to come up with this, which I'm going to use as my avi for several forums. Thanks very much! ^_^

Wow, that cube is amazing! ^_^

Okay, thank you both for your answers. ^_^

I read the Pictorum rules, but I just want to be sure I understand something before I create something: I'd like to create a gallery, not really to show off my work, but to track my progress as I practice. I can create one thread like that, correct? And just edit the first post when I make a new image? But I can only bump the thread myself (if I do at all), once per 24 hours, correct? Thank you in advance. Don't want to start off my time here by breaking the rules. ^_^

Will do, thank you dug. ^_^

I just found this thread. Those are some lovely entries. Does this contest run very often? I doubt I can compete, but I'd love to try my hand at it. Congrats to the winner! ^_^

Maybe someone could help me out here. I can't seem to get any brushes to load. I downloaded several from Brusheezy. I unzip them with no problems, but when I go to the CBM to use them, it tells me the folders are empty. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I know I've done it before, but that was probably 1-2 years ago, on a different computer. Any help would be great. ^_^

Thanks all for the help. It was very useful, and we managed to figure things out on my end. Much appreciated!

Hi there. Was messing around for a contest on another forum, and used your tutorial to come up with this: In order to get it, after doing the Julia fractal, I clicked the transparent outside, inverted the selection, then used a Nebula Color Fill. Then I followed your directions from there. Came out kind of neat. ^_^ Thanks for the tut!

I can't seem to find what I'm looking for anywhere. Is this even possible? I'm trying to change the color of the Julia Fractal, from a single color to a rainbow-type color. I can adjust the single color, but that's all. Thanks in advance for any help. ^_^

I added dents after finishing mine, and came up with this to use as my avi. Very fun tutorial. ^_^

Thanks for this. I combined it with the Glass Text tutorial to make my signature. Much appreciated. ^_^

Great tutorial. ^_^ I just made this with it (hope the image link works). Much appreciated.

Unfortunately I can't upload unless the file is in .png. .pdn isn't supported. Ah well, it was worth a shot. Thank you

Is it possible to change my PDN settings, so that I can save as a .png without flattening my work? I'm working on a project for a site, and am having issues. I'm hoping if this part is possible, it might solve my problem. I'm a fairly new user, and I'm working with v3.5.8, and Windows Vista. Thanks very much. ^_^
