Very cool, Piplup. Although I do partially agree with Flare.

Cool! I've gotta get Photoshop, I'm currently relying on Picnik.com Could you check out my Rainforest Ambush?

Thank you! Could you comment on this? http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/191315

Dude, these rock. Awesome. I like the colored 2x4.

Yeeeaaaah... no offense, but these aren't very good examples of how to use an image editing program. Those look more like they were done in Windows Paint, and quickly. If you want to see good examples of digital manipulation, I'd suggest looking at busterbuilder's recent MOC (http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=4383607). He uses both a digital background as well as blurring to not only set it in space, but also convey the sense of speed. Simple but effective editing like that make a better impression than poorly done coloring. There are hundreds of free online sites and pages that cover all of the basic and advanced ways to alter images. I'd suggest looking those up first before offering any advice. Lastly, you may want to mention that Photoshop is also available on PCs, as has been the case for over a decade now, and it can also be bought in stores as well as the site of the people that make it, at www.adobe.com. If the price tag is too much for you, there is always a free program called GIMP. It offers the same features and tools as Photoshop, but can be downloaded from a number of sites, and it a completely legal alternative to Photoshop.

I'm sorry, but these are pitiful examples of Photoshoppery. I could do this on MS Paint with my eyes closed.

You're welcome, Cade! Glad to see that I helped.

I might want to try it out some time, thanks for showing it to me.
