In this section I will include projects or fun things created in PSP that are not related to the class material, but were completed, or just happened during the class term.

First, SKUNKED is an image I did as a joke for my brother's birthday.  Seems he has turned into the *Mighty Skunk Slayer* in his yard.   Soooooooooo, I have to let the little furry fellas have their revenge.    *smile*

Next, I had a furry and terrible photo of the sweet little kitty we recently lost.  The pose was so *her* gazing off into the night, but the original image was blurred beyond repair.  In looking at the tutorial on adjustment layers from pspPower and at my newly downloaded Paint Engine, I had an idea, try to turn her into a digital painting.   HERE are the results of my first attempt at redoing this photo.  More may follow.

And then I started playing with BLEND MODES and was having so much fun that I decided to make them into a page of their own.

This is not really an *extra,* as we were asked to write a tutorial expanding on of the lesson sections as part of the final exam for class.  I chose the image manipulation section from Week Two.  My tutorial is in two parts.  First, I retraced the steps I had taken in combining several images into one using several different tools.  That is really designed just to give you an idea of how much fun you can have combining images of your own.  The second page is a step-by-step tutorial for a simple combination of two different images.  The files I used are downloadable for use in the exercise.  To go to the tutorials, click HERE.  Hope it is helpful to someone and that you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed putting it together!!

Also, I have gathered PSP RESOURCES from the class resource lists and my bookmarks onto a page I can keep for future reference.
