sPECtre ... thank you, thank you, thank you ... that helps heaps (I was tackling it the wrong way for my limited abilities) ... and I thank Gaussian in absentia (or where ever he is ) .... I thank kiwi for his help as well as a big thank you to sfm for her offer of the pic of the Pelican feather but I needed a 'generic' feather (is 'generic' the right word?? [confused]) as the feathers origin couldn't suggest niceness, strength or any other good attributes [sly] [shhh]

... and Wendy (wbiss) said.....
... hmmn, dementia setting in Wendy?? [bustagut] [bustagut] ... thanks about the avatar, it was time for a change so I just played with warped text for 10 minutes then put it all through Image Ready

[bustagut] [bustagut] Ian - I was only "pulling your leg" seeing as you posted in the "new user's" area!

Ah, it would seem that Pierre has provided you with a link to a great feather tutorial! Cool! B7

I just ran across this one, while surfing and thought that you might be able to use it too! http://www.developingwebs.net/photoshop/feathers2.php

Great link Spectre, no need for me to browse any further
