thanks alot
I know, it's not the light that stretched, theres a little feather right in front of it. It's too hard to see, and I didn't save the PSD file I would have to start over if I wanted to move it.
I fixed it.

“...There are so many ways of being despicable it quite makes one's head spin. But the way to be really despicable is to be contemptuous of other people's pain. You ought to have some apprehension that the man you see before you was once even younger than you are now and arrived at his present wretchedness by imperceptible degrees.”

i know its not that great. it was my first attempt at using any of my image editing know how in about five years. it was made more as a way to remember how to make layers and overlays and such than an actual project. as you can tell, ive gotten better again

this guy uses rendering software, better than anything (excluding maya) that i can find on linux. but he charges money to download his images (even tho you can get freebies) turn your hobbie into a little cash, maybe

About 4 months.
I've been drawing for a long time.
theres a windows port of gimp [url]www.gimp.org[/url]. theres things about it i like better than PS like the fuzzy logic selector can me dragged rather than just used to select an area of color. IE i cut out the bomb in my pic in one step. i know from experiance tha at least in PS5.5 this isnt possible

Well theres a background eraser tool that works well for that.
Personally paint shop pro is really simple to use and does [i]almost[/i] a good a job as PS, but if you want super hi-res detailed images you need all the plugins photoshop can support.
thats what i like aboout gimp is its got all the distortion/filters/niftiness that you can do with PS amd its got the added ability to write your own scripts if it doesnt do precisely the thing u want (however i dont know how to do this yet)
plus its free
