Photoshop - silhouettes!!!

Ok, so another little trick cracked......well, the very basics of it only, and not that i'm some expert or nuthin, just had a dabble and managed to make it work! My friend Andi asked if i could do a silhouette style image of a picture she has, so i was determined to find out how to do it......and here are my first attempts at it!

Now, they may not be that impressive to the naked eye, but anyone who is familair with my lack of knowledge on Photoshop will be impressed!!!(and of course my Mom will be proud o' me, cuz she's cool like that, heheheh) There's two methods that i've found, with two totally different results really......both cool looking i think.

So yeah, gold star for meeeeeee!!!

It was like a little treasure hunt, I hunted some web tutorials out and even learned how to mask a layer in the process, yay me!!!

So let's hope Andi is liking what she sees??? heheheh

Before & After....the Bedroom....

Well, the yellow/lime green version is the "before"...and actually it's not even a great depiction of the HIDEOUSNOUS of it.....the carpet was mangy, tired and BRIGHT lime green all at the same time(how is that possible?!?) but it was ugly, and we lived with it for over two years, since we bought this house, maybe it had a strange hypnotic effect on us....heheheh.....but it is only now that we are trying to sell the house that we decided it has to go! We've painted the walls a neutral magnolia and got a lovely tan carpet to replace the green-ugliness!!! And WOW it looks different and very nice and i actually like sleeping in it now......heheheh

You can even see Zoot on the corner of the bed.....awwww...he likes it too!

What do you think?

More photos from camping.....

A few more camping photos from Scarborough & Whitby, but jazzed up a lil bit.......wish it really was summery here! It was one day of sun! hahahah then rain, rain, rain!

Camping - Scarborough/Whitby

I love camping! Thanks to Eve for arranging a great(if not wet, but we ARE in England so you kinda expect that-hahah) weekend camping in Scarborough!! Got to hang out with some great people(see above) and see a some great sites, went on a little boat tour of Scarborough harbor and had some great food. And the mobile home was really cosy and suprisingly spacious for the smallest model Eve's company has which is made for 2 people....but hey! it fit 8 people perfectly cosily for meals and dry-indoor evenings, hahah. Yay for camping!!!

Zoot, awwww

Some pics of Zoot. One is taken with my new snazzy phone on a sunny day, yes we have them OCCASIONALLY, with the sepia mode, oooh fancy! and the other is his normal perching spot between the keybaord and the monitor on the desk, he's bored tho and feels the need to yawn, how nice! heheheh he's such a handsome furry dude!
