And I had to fool with the background in photoshop, the first time I've really had to do that. The paper was unevenly sized, that is, it had spots that resisited the paint, so I had to even it out with the clonestamping tool. Clonestamping can be fun too. And congratulations on syndication! It's long overdue.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Jeff!<BR/><BR/>Kid, please do, as long as it doesn't go off on a tangent about whether fBOFW retires...<BR/><BR/>Mike, amusing yes, instructive & educational, no. I'll see to that.
