    I like it okthumb.gif .....feet in the grass are the worst to try to do. Alot of times I'll just have one pose & block the feet with lettering.. I'll try to post an example without kidnapping your thread....

    Oh, yes...the feet in the grass. I knew that was a mistake when I started editing but it was a little too late. From now on I can get those shots on concrete or something (these were not from an actual game even though he surely had his game face on. haha).

    I love your ideas. They are great! I'm going to try to incorporate those in my sports pics. Thank you SOOO much!!!clap.gif

    God Bless.

    Not sure what program you are using to create your images, but another suggestion is to look on Google for free brushes. I use Photoshop and found a very large selection of grunge, scratches, etc....the guys like the grunch look. I used a funky brush above to create the flame look on the orange...just thought I would pass that along.

    Best of luck

    Thanks. I just started downloading a few brushes. I wasn't even aware I could do this in photoshop. What I've done is self-taught, and I have SO much to learn. That's why I'm here. I will download those.

    Thanks again!

    Thank you so much. Yes, they do have so much personality....especially my youngest. She's a handful. :o)

    Have you looked at this same design with a higher opacity % on the background? That low it starts to look almost pink instead of orange.
