zep photo's/ cdr covers/image manipulations

[Dgowc1st@xxxxxxx]

its kinda a cool the image you did for starters, but you might want to keep 
something in mind that on the surface seems trivial; your completed image is 
large and purple. purple is a combination of both blue and red, and printing 
that image, even in a 5 x 5 square, is gonna use a lot of ink. i'm paying 40 
bucks an ink cartridge for my hp printer, and go thru them way too often. 
making wonderful images is great, but keep in mind that white space can be a 
wonderful thing too..... i use photoshop , painter 6 and paintshop pro; its 
hard to par down sometimes, but after buying 3 ink cartrides in one month 
once, i really got an appreciation for  smaller images with borders, cropped 
images, greyscale, ...blah blah bla
anyway, sorry to everyone else for the lack of zep content; i'll make it up 
to ya all someday; 
good luck in your newfound artistic pursuits

I'm trying to make artwork for some of my shows on
cdr, after having received a couple of photo designing
software programs, Photodraw and Micrografx.  Each has
some unique features, and playing one off the other,
here's what I was able to do with one concert photo:

 Having no artistic talent, it's evident that those two
 programs are quite spiffy, if they allowed me to do
 that.
