So this is what I came up with after a little bit of messing around.
The other thing is that the silhouette is a shape I downloaded a looong time ago... I just altered it a bit. (Well quite a bit- shrunk the boobs and made the skirt longer, took off her stiletto heels and added a magnifying glass)

Should I pursue this further? Or is it just too cliche'. I did show it to my daughter (2nd grade) and she said, "A new Nancy Drew? We have got to get that one!". I had to laugh. Yeah, I am on a cover of a Nancy Drew.:rofl

Its another mystery book. I do have another idea up my sleeve, but to make it happen will be tricky.

    Really nice! Great photo, spot-on treatment with good use of selective color, and interesting typography. My only very nit-picky thought is that the smoke might look better without the slight green push in the "middle." Other than that, you really have that smart and (dare I say) bookishly sexy detective look down!

    Well that is a new one for me.... rolleyes1.gif

    Meanwhile, I'll see what I can do about my "green smoke". All it is is the gradient overlay preset with red and orange. I'll have to do a custom one.

    Thanks.

    Good grief Heather - I mean, I know you were the child bride, but in that photo you really LOOK like you're barely old enough to be in highschool!!! (that's a compliment, btw rolleyes1.gif)

    Great job, and another thumb.gifthumb You're on a roll!

    Ha ha...I guess photoshop is a pretty effective tool. I bet I am not the only one on this forum that finds themselves looking at the mirror with frustration because there is no patch tool for real life. In real life I look my age. Don't believe me, ask JAG. I am an old lady.rolleyes1.gif

    Thanks Diva... Too bad I didn't have such a great other idea. We will see if I can make myself stick to this one.
