Cute kid! the white looks a bit off, though...

Looks much cleaner on my screen - I like it. And I really like the name and flourish - how'd you do that!

good..thanks B-DAWG an K-DIGGIDY for pointing out the lousy white.

I use the ellipse select tool with a slight feather to it...2 I think is what I used.

With Braidens I made it too thick.

The select the color...painted it over a few times to feather out the edges.

Select the Text tool. Enter name.

Then select lens flare under render...I think it is, and place it where I want it.

Oh and I duplicated the layer because the flare will go all over the picture....so I erase those parts and keep the shine on the line ZIING

kja, strobist is essential reading.

Strobist rules!

Speaking of off-cam flashes(ish) ... has anyone used/heard/seen one of these:

what are u using?CS2? 3?

Yep, start with lighting 101 and make notes as you go thru on what to buy, then prioritise. Even if you can afford to buy everything at once, do it in stages so that you learn better

Jenn, I just got my boxes..do you even combine like 4x6, 5x7 with the 8x10's?

Depends on the size of the order (ie. how much profit I'm making) - if it's a small order, with just a few of each size, I will combine them in one box. Make sure you wrap each size in tissue, so the prints don't scratch each other, and stuff any spare space with tissue to keep everything in its place.

And if you can't afford much, then just ask Luke and he said he'll lend yeah some money indefinitely

Business Managerment in Canada - today's topic is Entrepreneurship

That's ironic, since you're already an entrepreneur!

Hubby is doing the dishes as we speak

Your husband does dishes? I would have to lose all four limbs and the the use of my neck muscles for mine to do dishes.
