Everything that in the thumb has a Black BG is at original size a render on transparent BG

And that ugly fringes are visible only in the preview with the black BG not at original size

Flickr uploader screw up the order of the sequences...so now is a Chaos..if i success to reorder i may wrote a tut...

That without transparency are mostly done combining the renders...

Those are so beautiful, PhotoComix. Thanks for sharing. Make me think of jewels in gold.

Excellent images!!

What I recently started doing, when uploading to Flickr and wanting to keep them in order, is upload them one at a time, in the order I want.

i found out "flickr uploader" that allow to reorganize, quite handy , would need just a "reverse stack" button to be perfect because as usual the first in the list are the last uploaded, and the last will be the first...arghh

i really messed up that last upload ...i am correcting now

in the while

the "render" i used

love the effect of boosting the color of the top layer...it gives it a surreal and nightmarish look!

The pyramid in the park is so cool. I could use it as a tent ... it has an O on it. I could sit in it in gypsy clothing and tell the future with my crystal ball. :mrgreen:

I actually have a crystal ball. It sits on top of my computer along with Buddha.

I love the colorful backgrounds on the next two images.

Outstanding, PhotoComix!!!
