Ohhhh Reed! A man after my own heart!! I LOVE this!

Wanda said all when she commented on the compatibility of the manipulation with the subject of the photo...It's truly GRAND!!!

For those who aren't familiar with "Buzz" and "Velvia" they are both "plugins" used from within PhotoShop, PAintShopPro...and other mainstream major graphic software program.

The "Buzz" is a very POWERFUL plugin...it has the capability of doing MANY different types of manipulations. I, personally, use it for simplifying the detail of a photo resulting in a "painted" appearance. (Buzz CAN be used, or so they say, with PhotoBrush...the problem being that the one time I tried to use it, my computer crashed...could have been the result of SEVERAL things *I* did wrong. :D :( )

"Velvia" is a PS plugin that either Reed or Geck (or Ron who discovered it, I think) can explain far better than I can.

If you want to check out the Buzz plugin...you can use this link.

BUT be aware that the trial version only lets you have 30 trips into the program...and once bitten by BUZZ, it's hard to break the habit! :D (In other words, if you're going to TRY the program, let someone here HELP you get acquainted with it so as NOT to waste the 30 uses.)

Reed do you have the link for Digital Velveeta? :D

This is a good one… I like the shadows; the subject is one that I’m working now in. So what’s not to like.
