t(AD)pole Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 great work tadpole - I haven't figured out how to do the diptych (or quadtych????) yet, really need to though 'cause I often can't choose between 2 similar pics that would work well together in a kinda storytelling pic. Did Abbey need encouragement to play with the santa hat or did you just throw it and it was all over? What is that she's playing with in the 2nd pic? looks to me like a toy wreath? where'd you get it, or did you make it? Thanks. I only put the pics together like that because I couldn't decide on a single one and I also didn't want to upload too many. I think the border is actually wonky.. oops The way I put it together was create a blank template (i have no idea what you really call it.. file maybe?) in gimp (don't have PS) then resize the pics I wanted to use and dragged them from a folder onto the template. Sorry if that doesn't make any sense!...anyway its fairly simple- the hardest thing is lining up the pics and making sure the border is even (something I evidently cannot do!). I just threw the hat at Abbie and the pics I posted are about the only ones where she nearly caught it. Most of them are variations of the last one. She wouldn't cooperate for any 'standard' chrissy pics so I thought it would be more fun for her to catch it but all she really wanted to do was go for a walk. The thing in the second pic is a wreath that my mum made. She was less than please when she saw what I'd done with it.... Ruger- awwwww that is adorable! Rocco- That pic is fantastic! Looks so professional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruthless Posted December 24, 2008 Author Share Posted December 24, 2008 (edited) They're lovely. Katoomba looks tasteful The last one's my fave ETA My reindeer antlers have been sitting on the dining table for weeks waiting for me to take humiliating pics of the dogs. I think at this late stage they might just be off the hook! Edited December 24, 2008 by ruthless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
