Thanks Sepiana for this weeks image. It looks like BillieJean & I was on the same wavelength. As soon as I seen the bench I thought of Floozie. Image of the man and skull is from FreeImage's. Good job so far everyone! I started your picture in LR to get a B&W that I liked. Imported it into PSE and added the elements and added a Photo Filter to it. Then made a vignette to finish it off.

Great minds eh! verber10 Haha I like it. I never thought of turning our 'Western Belle' round. If I had, on my page she could have been patting her dog on the head LOL. I like how you have done the shadowing of the two figures. Neat.

Mike, I love your creation! It brings to mind one of those Western-themed paintings. The blending of the several elements is flawless (including the shadows).

Moto, very interesting Version 2. That bowl was begging for a thirsty dog and that bench . . . for a weary traveler.

Rita, you outdid yourself here. I love it! The addition of the Navajo rug is so Southwestern.

Very nice add-ons Moto, and Rita. I still haven't figured out how to post a gif on here yet. BillieJean, Thanks for commenting. And if you still have your PSD file with the layers, you can still turn her around. Sepiana, Thank you also for your nice comments. They are always appreciated.

Thanks for the kind comments. I do appreciate them.
Mike, re posting a .gif. Did you select "Do not resize my image" before loading? The allowed file size on Postimage is rather small for almost any .gif. I had to reduce the one above twice before it fit, that's why there is so much noise in it, which my .psd version did not have. I believe that's called banding.

Do you know what the size limit is on these gifs? Anyways yours turn out nice. Looks nice and cozy.
