Hi everyone! :-D I'm new here, but I've been lurking around for a while and finally joined! I've been working with Photoshop Elements 5 for about 2 years and I used another program before that for a year. I'm starting to enter my work in contests and I hope to get decent results. Comments are greatly appreciated!!

I love your stuff. You are really amazing.
Yours blends are the best, and your retouches look so lifelike.

I still haven't really figured out how to do them.. it is just colorizing a colorized picture?

Thanks so much! I've seen your work and that means a lot coming from you! A retouch is basically taking a picture that needs work and smoothing out the skin with the heal and blur tools, brightening the eyes with the sharpen and contrasts tools...stuff like that. They're really fun!

I agree with Smeag, you're stuff is great! (I nearly called you Tar. All you people and your Doctor Who stuff are getting me confuzzled. :teehee: ) I love the first banner and the first blend. I really like the Sparrabeth stuff, and since I'm not a Sparrabeth shipper that makes it pretty awesome.

Awww....since you're not a Sparrabether, that's a HUGE compliment! heehee I'm just gonna put up some more of my old work to make way for stuff I'll make in the future. This thread will help push me to start making more graphics! :-D

Blends:

I entered this in a contest, but I'm not sure I like it. There's something with the font....

I've noticed that all of my work looks different. I don't really think I have a style that I stick to. I just sorta mess around with different stuff and what happens is what happens! lol

Wow, those are incredible! I love your blends! I would say that the font issue (at least to me) is the color. I would think you would want a light, very desaturated (perhaps tannish?) color.

Thank you, Nurr! Yeah, I agree with you about the font. I noticed I hated the font color after I had entered it. Oops! :duh: Oh well, there's always another contest to enter. :-)

*blushes* Thank you so much! I hope to have some new stuff up here pretty soon. Hopefully I get a sudden burst of inspiration! lol

Hmm, so I was going to comment and say I love your blends, because they're gorgeous. And then I saw the colorizations, and I decided, NO, I love EVERYTHING you've made. :swoon: Lovely. :yes: Keep it up. :)

Ok, you guys are officially awesome. :-D Shadowcat, you made my night! :hug:

I'm leaving for camp in a few days, so I thought I'd post some new work before I go. :-D Btw, can someone tell me how to change the title of this thread to say that I've updated? I can't figure it out.

New work:

I made this for a contest, and I'm pretty proud of it!

Old manipulations:

I really love Aragorn/Eowyn, so I made some manipulations of them a while back. Here are the better ones.

Comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Lovely graphics :) Really nice ^^

Though I am an admant supporter of Faramir and Eowyn - the way you blended Aragorn and Eowyn is pretty skilled ^_^

Thank you so much! That was a pretty big compliment. :-D

Those are brilliant manipulations! *ish floored* I wish I could do ones that well. And I love the blends too.

As for updates: on your first post, you hit the "edit" button. Then just change what you have as your title.
