Could you look into changing my home page badge back to Subeditor? I've given up my 'offical' ACE duties and am planning to focus on the Sub-thing.
Thanks!
BTW: I loved the angel photos!! Did you do that with the wings in PhotoShop or did you get her to lie down on top of the wings for the photo?

The wings were a cut & paste job. She was originally lying on her changing mat - It's not posed, she just happened to be in that position. I used Adobe PhotoDeluxe, which I got free with the printer I bought, and an excellent job it does - not quite the flexibility of Photoshop, but close, and you don't have to use their hand-holding UI if you don't want to.
And I've changed your badge.

Ahh! Thank you good sir - I like that blue badge much better.
Did you send out the photos as X-mas cards as well? They were *really* cute. (What's that about a man and a computer with some time to kill being dangerous? )

Yes, the picture were specially done for Christmas cards. Actually it was a flimsy excuse for buying a printer and scanner, but I'm glad I did - these new colour printers are fantastic, and I've been able to print out some really nice enlargements of other photos I took.
I still fondly remember the fun I had processing and printing B&W photos when I was young, but now there's absolutely no point - you can do everything digitally with hardly any effort at all, and in full colour.
I love technology.
