November 07, 2001   I haven't got the slightest clue what I'm doing today. I started out playing with a new toy (texturize filter it's free do a search for it). Then I found out what the stamp tool in photo impact is for. This is the second time I've picked butter flies as my subject, and I'm not real sure why I'm doing it. I think maybe it's my subconscious telling me to cheer the hell up. Oh well... Lots of love,  C. Fly  Info: This set contains 10 pieces each thing is on a white background and prolly won't look too hot on any other color. To save some time, click file on your browser window and then save everything including the html file (which you need to change to html rather than htm and to which you will need to remove the angelfire banner) will show up in a nice neat little folder somewhere on your hard drive. To make that funky boarder over there *points* I used a few of the texture paint options in photo impact then using my brand new texturizer filter I gave it a little more depth. To get the funky jagged edges I whooped out lasso selection tool in photo impact and went nuts with it. then I just pulled the selected image off the original resized it to my liking, expanded the canvas size and jammed all those little bugs and things on it with the stamp tool. The shadow on the background was then done with eye candy 4000's "shadow lab". Oh um I am getting a little bit closer to having my personal set of photo impact presets finished enough to give out. So if you are a PI user keep an eye on my PI stuff section!!!
