Thankyou very much Pleiades, I'm glad you liked some of the things on my website (although I am trying to fill it with more serious , thought-out pictures now that I have gotten-to-grips with my art programs over the last 3-4 years - you may have noticed the 'Camel' which was never meant to be analysed by another artist (such as yourself) but it was fun. Your website is cool and I love your "view from the moon" and "thinker". Also, the last yellowish "on hold" picture you have in the bottom right of your demo page 3 looks very promising. Keep it up :) Squirrelt I thought I might ask you about my latest piece which I followed a tutorial on streaming-light rays below. What do you think? Are the light beams too strong?
