many thanks

thank you so much Rick

i finally did it .....nothing like a challenge.....

thank you - i found a rose - cut out what was not needed - saved as .png then background - imported as layer - put in place but as you will see i did try a favourite TR's EFX but did not get the same effect as the post i posted - seem to think it may have to be done with partial transparency's. i really do enjoy having a reputation of zero - from 1 end of the scale to the other - no pressure. as there was no plug in i could find anywhere to do this [with the exception of Photoshop & no intention of paying $700Au for 1 effect] just wanted to make sure i had not missed 1. now that i know it cannot be achieved as per original post - great. thanks chaps.

congratulations your powers of observation are excellent!!! i'll have a few trys with different levels - not a life & death moment. thank you for your reply, i did go through every single plugin on here & couldn't find anything suitable. enjoy your weekend.

the effect i am trying to obtain is as stated ....the rose....it cannot be achieved by CMY ghost - you remove alpha , downgrade cyan & you are left with magenta & yellow...but if you look at the rose it is obviously layered - but then what??? lightened???

i have been sent a background which is rather awful with the exception of the rose. i do not know if there is a plug in to get this effect or not - so i sure hope have put this 1 in the right place.

wow - fun

nothing lke plenty of bright red bloooood for little boys - thank you

love it - burn baby burn......

thank you so very much - i will remove it right now. yippee.

love this ebook & my Amazon Kindle - here is how it goes in Australia. the book is $9.95 [wonderful] - but with my a/c anything under a certain amount is charged foreign currency exchange fees - so ended up being $32.80. i don't care. If you ever feel like putting this into a real paper back book i can have on my knee or read outside under the blazing hot sun here - would you please contact me & i will sent you a cheque in US currency + postage. this book would have saved me a whole lot of embarrassment if i had it in the 1st place & a lot of people who i am sure believed i came from another planet - to those folks i thank you. gotta start at the bottom on things i have never even attempted before. it

do you mean to say anyone uses IE???? aaaaaagh!!!

absolutely loving it - Amazon have asked me to rate it - done ...thank you so much

thank you so much
