Glad I came across this article. Have just joined pinterest and this is very helpful. Thanks.

It seems that you could do this same thing by using the layers in Paint.net, with fewer steps, but same idea. I also don't know how to make a watermark, but your directions to use the emboss effects is what I've been missing - so thanks!

I want to get more into photography this spring and this will come in handy. You can waste a lot of money on equipment you don't need.

Thanks for this. I've often wondered how to get this done.

Thank you Dr. Lee. thanks for visiting and commenting..

Thanks for these tips. I had a similar idea about a city where I live but was wondering if it would work. Now after reading this I will go ahead and write that article.

Thank you, brl, your perspective is uniquely valuable, as you have insight on both sides of the debate. I was very conscious while writing this that I've only really been exposed to the American horror stories, while sitting pretty with my British universal healthcare.

What you said about bankruptcy as an option struck a chord. An American friend was only telling me a couple of days ago that her mother is considering that option, just to pay for essential medication to keep a family member alive.

We must be the same age. I was thinking about this and I would have been four at the time too, because I hadn't yet had my 5th birthday that year. Did we all just automatically get a mug?

We don't seem to have street parties like that anymore, do we?

These are so cute Katie. We are moving back to a home we own in Richmond VA when June gets here. I can't wait to start re-decorating and doing all the kids' rooms. It sure is fun! Especially with cute little night lights like this.

Katie - I think you could pull of the orange dress only because it has the stripes and darker brown color going through it. If it was solid I would say no. It is beautiful. I love long dresses like in the summer too. My problem is that I am tall and bigger... wish I was slim. I am a Big Girl! But even the 12-14 in the Plus size is often too short for me...

I just have to add I love Love LOVE the long flowing dress in the light fabric, I wear them all the time in the summer. These dresses make me feel so good when I wear them, that color, do you think I could pull that off, love the orange. You know what's really hard is buying off the rack when you 5'10' thin with long legs and arms there is no small sizes long enough...

This tall woman loves your fashion sense and ideas for us tall girls. I love being tall, heels, long short dresses or skirts, it all works for me! Versatility!

Aw thanks Angel, lol I hear that :) Love the new profile pic, that's a keeper!

I've still got my 1977 Silver Jubilee mug as well! I would have been 4 and I remember the street party and lots of bunting!

Hi Lucas - yes, my sentiments exactly! You're forgetting human bodies, they can be used for pornography too. In fact, let's just eradicate the whole world!

*sigh* Some situations are just so infuriating and tragic that it helps to vent a little. Then you've released the pressure value necessary for doing something about it.
