Branching out

[Rick]

The tree looks great - thanks for the help on the star Gare.

[Gare]

I'm inclined to agree!

Thanks for your understanding, Rick and I hope you got your DNS problem cleared up. I NEVER as a practice, touch other people's artwork.

And if anyone is interested, I'll post a tutorial on what I did to shade the art and photo. I used Multiply and Screen blending modes in PS on layers on top.

Sorry my ornaments are from last year, but then again, so are the ornaments on our actual tree in the living room .

Post em ASAP, folks!

I'll just have time to add them and add a little lighting effects to ingrate them.

The "Nick" of time, as it were

Here's a filler ornament made with PS...

And how about a deer with a nose that glows...

and another filler ornament...

When you're tired of shoveling snow...have a cookie!

[Raven Song]

If you've got any teeth left after the cookie treats have a candy cane!

[Gare]

Get 'em in! Get 'em up!

I'm going to have to open a Branch Office for all of Raven's contributions!

Here's where we are as of the 15th.

I'll try to put some PRESENTS under the tree shortly, ho ho ho.

My Best,

Gare

Wow, be careful around that candy cane -- it looks like radioactive peppermint! 

Well, here's one more...a glass teddy ornament...
