I must say that this thread has been very entertaining and somewhat informative. Like Keith, I have been impressed with the recent flame images more than ever. And...Like Rick, I have struggled to come up with something that looks even close to acceptable, all the while pulling out my hair.

I agree with Simon that you should create what you like and the rest will follow. I must say that I have spent a few moments wishing  there were a way that I could make money with my "frivolous" hobby, and that way I could justify my investments of time and money into it. After awhile I just began to realize that I really needed to just enjoy the creative process and have fun again, which is something I had lost sight of.

Anyway, I just wanted to add my 2cents and confess that my favorite part of this whole discussion was the playful p's performing such a pertinent part of this program ponderment!

Take it easy and take care ya'll

sincerely
