Thanks everyone, and those chops were not just thrown together without my best effort! I even worked on a lot of them well after the contest was over, true I did delete some of my portfolio but thats because I was just editing to find my best works. the first third of my work was done with photoshop 5.5 then recently I upgraded to CS2. I also have many works on other sites too, so this last year and a half has been extremely productive!
Now my plan is to create the best work of my life by putting in some serious time and all the knowledge I have to create images that really stand out and have meaning. I will stay for the H2H contest, but I must move on to work on my web site, music and writing. this has been my favorite site!
lots of great people and fine talent!
PSC has been a joy for the most part,
it was the best find in a google search ever!
I will be around as much as time permits me too. your all stars in my eyes!!! peace from Michael.
