Very nice picture so far. Nice and peacuful. The tutorial at the enclosed link might be just what you're looking for. :) What you have to do is click on the link, then go to the "Goodies" section in the sidebar frame at the left. Then click on Vue d'Esprit in the Tutorials section, and then on "Tesign's Splash Technique". I hope this helps you out.
