And here's a doctored photo of me I took with my crappy Big Lots webcam.

    Hi May, or is it Mayndi?

    The pic looks Ok, but it's a bit red.
    I tried to tone down the color a bit, and sharpened it a little more.
    The thing you try to get into focus are the eyes. You did a great job at that.
    And you're right, for a web cam, this is a nice picture.
    I hope you don't mind me trying to make it a little better.
    Welcome to Dgrin.

    Of course I had to try B&W also.

    I like the B&W version.

    The original is too magenta, IMO. Less magenta, more yellow would help a color version. Nice shot for a webcam, that's for sure!

    Oh, and Davev, Mayndi's been around a while, she just changed her screen name for some reason.

    Of course its not suppose to look natural in tone but the original magenta pic looks very good to me.

    The b/w version by dave is awesome IMO. Very smooth and silky (neglecting the visible pixels).

    Great job thumb.gif
