Please let me know if I've missed anyone - of if someone is inspired to create something from this point forward with those images just give me a shout, I'll feature you, too!

Your love for dogs shows not only in your writing but in the way you capture the personality in the, dare I say 'pooches' Pamela

Thank you for your words, Pamela! I love hearing from non-doggie peeps about their reactions to my writing and my photos. Especially when it's good words Wink

Seriously tho - sometimes a non-animal person's perspective on the photo composition itself is a good critiquing session for me (kinda of like turning a photograph upside down to see if there is anything "pulling" the eye that should/shouldn't be there) - you can look past the cuteness when you need to

Glad you are enjoying my work, too.

For all Dobie card creators - Snoop's mom had fun checking out the offerings - if you get any sales from Columbus, OH ... it just might be her!

Hi Sandy,

As soon as I looked at this photo of yours I was inspired with a silly idea - so here it is Grin

http://www.greetingcarduniverse.com/shopping/zoom.asp?pid=829254&w=1&ref =details_large_view

I put it in private gallery until I heard from you as to whether it's okay to sell. I first did some photoshop magic to remove the fence wire, the telephone pole shadow and corrected balance. Then I painted it with watercolor brushes in Photoshop. Liked what I saw, to I added another cow and the sold sign...before I knew...I liked it Grin

You know you could use the retouching tool and paint a larger patch around the eye on one of the herfords so they don't look like twins so much. Still great as is! Good Job! Best always, Randy

Oh, no Randall, are you catching my disease? Doreen did the funny rendition, she is so creative! I'm afraid I made a boo boo in trying to comment on her artwork- but being mental is highly under rated! I love the line from Designing Women where Julia says "In the south, people don't ask if you have crazy people in your family, they just ask which side they're on!"

But I'm from Iowa, the corn state. Shocked

Ok, now I understand the previous posts. No wonder that creation's hilarious! that girl is half out of her rocker anyway! Grin

I'm going to have to do something with it to top her, but that's going to take all night and then probably won't still! Maybe something will come to me in a wacky dream Huh

Like the joker asked in batman, only with Doreen, it's, "where does she get all those wonderful ideas?"

Actually Tish, I've had the disease since befor you so you proably got it from me. Grin

This old shack should be fun so I'm going to get busy working on it.

Best always, Randy
