Aaah very nice. It's beginning to blend into the photo much better now.

Good job. Stick with it. :} [righton]

Well here it is! I think I got this one done -- any other tips or suggestion will be welcomed!

Hey Rick, I don't know if you have a list of links for PS tutorials -- if you do, I haven't found them yet! If the list exists, and if you don't have the link I posted in the first post of this thread

Maybe you will want to add it to the list. The site has over 1,000 tutorials (many seeming very redundant, but use different effects and techniques) ranging from beginner to advanced! I have been going there for a little while now, and it seems to be helping me out!!

Another thing, about the redundancy, if one were inclined enough to do the "SAME" or nearly same tutorial(s) over and over a few times -- one might get better at shortcuts, techniques etc. etc.!!

Thanx for all the kudos and tips and hints! :}

I know this is off topic, but thought I had to express myself anyway!

I've been sitting here at the "Crack Machine" (my computer) -- working on a tribal scorpion! Whilest I was working, the most classic of classic childrens movie came on TBS -- The Wizard of Oz!!

I turned around to catch a few frames and happened to catch it right after the house landed on the wicked witch of the east. As I looked at the TV, I started to notice just how simple the effects were made in the movie! Not that it's a bad thing, but an underlying thought came forward in my mind! There must have been alot of good drugs used to come up with everything in the movie!! [innocent] No, really, I'm not knocking the movie down or anything -- but DUDE, the colooorrrsss, the Munchkins, THE FLYING MONKIES!!!!!!! Not to mention the "poppy field" before the emerald palace! [honesty]

Is this something that someone else has thought of too, or is it just me!?

Like I said before, I know this is off topic, but had to share my view on this!! 8[

Sorry, I was a bit loopy last night as I was working on my next project (which I started earlier yesterday -- worked on it all day long (half staring at those grey & white pixels that indicate a transparent background)and which by the way, is nearing complettion), The Wizard of Oz came on -- and I just thought everything seemed TOO COLORED or not "normal"! It kinda' reminded me of my dumber days!! That's all!!

I thought somebody would have laughed about it!!

Don't mind me, just staring at this computer screen too long while working on a really nice art project in PS!
