I have discovered a way to do a pretty good watercolor effect to photos...
makes them look pretty good in my view.

Image is pretty large, wide and tall...

What do you think?

I have not seen any attachments on this thread, just links, and these are
welcome. Did I miss an attachment?

It probably is just lagging behind the other posters comments Larry.
Usnet's not too trustworthy either ;^)

And Frank, attachments are not a problem on Usenet, just in non-binary
groups like this one. We don't want to give the idea they aren't
welcome anywhere.

I like, Mike! Now.. there is one thing that you can do to improve it,
imho. Mask the edges in to make that water-color edge. I am sure you
know what i mean and how to do it, just fine, but for others who may be
interested, i'm talking about something like Step 6 at

Thanks for showing us!

Hi there, DB!
I don't know if he would share what he does.. but there are many many
ways to come up with watercolor and other painting effects. YOu may want
to have a look at my tutorials on the subject.
http://www.myjanee.com/tuts/paint4/city2.htm
http://www.myjanee.com/tuts/painted2/painted2.htm
http://www.myjanee.com/tuts/painted/painted.htm
http://www.myjanee.com/tuts/painted3/painted3.htm

I encourage you to go through one of these tuts and look the others
over, and then close your browser and just play around with these sorts
of things on your own photo. Good fun!

Mike
