Next Picture

I had trouble blurring the edges of this picture.
This is from a dying man's point of view. He is visiting a grave.













*Addition* 16th June. I re-did the Kirsten Dunst picture because I'm finished.

Next Images Edited

Flowers:
I used extra contrast for this and used 'colour balance' to change what colours were in it. I masked the background in black.

King Arthur: 
For this picture, I used the Spot Healing Brush to remove the blood and also added some more tattoos. I masked her skin to make it more tan but left some smudges on her to be realistic.

Image Files

JPEG -- Joint Photographic Experts Group -- JPEG is best for photos when you need to keep the file size small. JPEG is not suitable for images with text, large blocks of color, or simple shapes, because solid lines will blur. Best used on the web.

GIF -- Graphical Interchange Format -- GIF files can be animated, where the others can't. Best used on the web.

PNG -- Portable Network Graphic -- PNG are useful when you need smaller file sizes with no loss in quality. Best used on the web.

BMP -- Bit Map Picture -- Use BMP for any type of bitmap (pixel-based) images. BMPs are huge files, but there is no loss in quality.
PSD -- Photoshop Document --

She has two arms to hold me
Four legs to wrap around me
She's not your typical girlfriend
She's my alien -- 
Simple Plan, My Alien


Multimedia to me, is about using images, 
audio, etc., to help get across a message.

About Me

My name is Lucinda Blake, but I am usually known as Lucy. My friends call me Sci-fi Nerd because I love Star Trek, Star Wars and Star Gate. I also love mucking around with technology, modding my favourite PC games and other stuff. I am a bit of a tomboy with my game choices, playing Halo, Dragon Age and Neverwinter Nights, etc. My hobbies are Guitar Hero, Soccer and ballet/contemporary. I have one dog, a golden retriever called Lady. I have four sisters and have 3 nephews and 3 nieces. I have been an aunt since six months of age. On the holidays, we went to a caravan park in Marysville because our camping trip was cancelled due to the floods. My favourite subjects are I.T., German and Drama. My favourite colours are orange, yellow and green. I prefer ps3 to xbox because Dragon Age Origins is not available in xbox as far as I have seen. I chose this subject (along with all of the others) because I love I.T.
