If I had Photoshop... and maybe a tablet, I would so try this... But I don't... I only have a slightly-better-than-Paint program... And a mouse... Well, I guess you could still do this with a mouse...

Rambling... Sorry...

What a fabulous tutorial! Without it, I wouldn't have been able to complete my latest deviation -- [link] -- so, thanks!

The bubble brushes are fantastic, too; I've put them to good use in a couple of LiveJournal userpics.

Gorgeous work, all of it... I love it!

RODJO57 In reply to ??? [2006-05-19 04:38:21 +0000 UTC]

Your tutorial was very helpful. I used Photoshop for the FIRST TIME EVER! Today I down loaded the trial version just so I could do your water background tutorial!

I do have a question though... After you did the highlights in the corner.... how did you get it so bright? You didn't really explain that all to clear (that or I am such a noob it went over my head, that is more likely the case).

I have the picture I did off your tutorial in my scraps I was wondering if you could answer/comment on it.

Thanks,
~Keo
