Dec 22, 2001   Hi everyone,   I'm a little on the depressed side today because of all the insane christmas rush and materialism that is going on everywhere (specially when i have to wait in the check out line for an hour just to buy milk) so this weeks offering reflects my gloom and down right emotional funk of the season. I really didn't even think I could do a full set this week but I tried my best. Oh well.... How: On a blank black canvas in photo impact 6 I created the bubbles using the particle effect in "creative effects" then using the shape tool and a "glass" preset I created the line button and banner converted them to images rather than paths and erased the bits I didn't want. Then I hit merge all blurred the yucky bits of the button and banner and saved as super high quality jpg. You will most likely not be able to see this set properly unless you adjust your brightness settings on your monitor.  Have a good holiday and don't get too wrapped up in materialism  C. Fly
