It's sad when the stars of yesterday fall out of the limelight and have to resort to crime just for attention. We can only hope that he gets the help he so richly deserves.

"More lift! More lift!!" Great illustration!

Yeah...a good morph package might help them out some...

Oh, I like it! Great job. What's the rent like?
PS: If anybody's interested, I've posted a slightly larger and a little different version in the gallery under the Bryce/Fantasy section.

Bigger? Hmmm...bigger means more detail..more scope...more fun! It'd give me a chance to correct some mistakes. I'll see what I can do! lindans: Jump on in! exercise and makes a great subject for a friendly competition. Maybe we could flood the gallery with flying rocks!

Thanks for the nice comments. It's a griffin, actually. I should have turned him a little bit more so the head could be seen. The little house on the chain is a take on a very old gag about a car pulling a trailer with another tiny trailer behind it...for the mother-in-law. Circa mid 1950s. I was going to make it an outhouse, but it didn't show up too well as it was so small.

I'm sorry, I don't get the joke. I thought that dead mimes were a good thing. Anyway, your work looks good on my end. A Compaq flat-screen.

Cat humor never goes out of style...unless of course you're a dog person... (no disrespect to those dog people out there.)

As I have 4 cats in the house, I've had many a cat scan on a cold morning. They never gave me any results, though. This is some very funny material! Can't wait to see more.

Pretty good? That's an understatement. I picked this up a couple of months ago and have had a lot of fun with it. For my two cents, it's top rate. Pick it up and you won't be sorry.

We'll meet again! Take care and good luck.

Well, I could think of worse places to be located, like, say, New Jersey. This is a joke, friends! I'm sure New Jersey has it's better places. Like any state or country, there's good and bad in each. But, I understand what you're saying. I think people by in large are resistant and resentful of people who are creative by their very nature. Anyway... I'm running CS on a PC and have had very few problems with lock-ups or crashes. Every once in a while I'll get them, but I'm not working with monster images, probably 18 or 20 meg at best. Maybe I'm just lucky. Or maybe I'm due for one really big one. I've looked at CS2, but quite frankly, I don't see all that much different that makes me want to make the investment. Maybe there's more to it that what I've seen, but the changes just aren't anything I need right now. Maybe I'll change my mind later, sort of like Illustrator!

InDesign is a good choice. Oddly enough, I've been using Illustrator for a lot of design work. I have no idea why because it's a program I really used to hate. Now I just sort of hate it. From what I've been able to gather from the people I've been working with (and other freelancers)in the United States (where I'm located as it seems that this is an international conversation), Quark is falling by the wayside in favor of InDesign. More and more people are requesting non-Quark files these days when working over the lines. Insofar as I'm concerned, it can go away as I was never too fond of it. However, to make any sort of a living as a freelancer, give them (the client) what they want. Make them happy and they will pay you, and I guess that is what it's all about. PS: Bakkti Am I understanding this correctly? You're located in Sweden? That's pretty neat. Beautiful country, from what I understand.
