Tranceopticalinclined - yep, use [ats] code but use a return after every third image and just use a space between the others, like this (replace curly brackets with straight ones):





preview your post until you get the desired effect

BTW - nice work

Personally, I use Google Image Search. But you can use any other source, if you can get it in, or convert it to one of the supported formats. (PNG,JPG,GIF)If you have a scanner, even better, as you can use your original artwork,etc.

And I would like to add, filesize no larger than 75kb.
Watch filesize especially for animated GIFs, and PNG format images.

Nice work Trance

Looks like you've got the hang of finding and manipulating images. But don't forget, you can start from scratch and just work with colours, shapes and layers to make something more abstract, which is a good way of learning to use the various filters and "blending" options IMO.

Looking forward to seeing some more

Haven't done any in a while, so here's another quickly made 3:

Another quick 3 while BTS is in "quiet" mode.

Another two simple ones. Once I get to 50, I'll do a "full page" look back to see if doing a few a day has helped much in terms of improving.
