i did the best i could. i know the title sucks. i don't care for how i placed the letters, but i don't know how else to do it. i'm just sick of working on it now, so here it is. i took this picture of Brenda last night at band rehearsal. i thought she looked like an angel. :)

I like this one Sheila. What are you talking about, not liking how you placed your text??? It looks perfect where they are, very clean and elegant. Yup, id say you did mighty fine. I really need to try and make one myself...

How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is supposed to be fire and brimstone?

Nice one Shelia, simple and very clean. Still working on mine, not much free time at the moment. I like the font you have used. Steve

Looks very cool. Great picture. It makes me think of country music. I think the font looks good. :-)

thanks a bunch guys for your feedback! I've been working on this since last night, and it sure was hard!!! I wanted to make it classy and elegant. placement of the text and the black around her image...i dunno...i think it could be better, but i'm brain-dead now. LOL! jeff...she does sing a few country tunes, and OMG can she EVER belt them out!!!! :) thanks ya'all! :)

Nice Sheila. I might have gon the other way though and gone for more contrast - maybe even a posterized look, with an aged finish (sepia or something). But that is me and I think you did real well.

Marlene, can't wait to see yours!!!!! Kort, i do love the posterized look for sure, and sepia would look classy! i did this in sepia also but i'm just more in a b/w mood these days. :) Thanks so much guys for your feedback and nice words!! now i gotta get to work on the next one!!! :)
