Ah photodraw, that brings back memories . Its not actually a bad program, its even got a decent clone brush. Check out the GIMP and paint.net for a few free alternatives to Photoshop.

Cool theme, I have a few ideas.

EDIT: Got a bit more technical and spent a while on this one, something different.

5uspect

Really nice work Ruu.
I had big plans to do a scary castle up on a narrow rock pillar (just like in Count Ducula) but I just couldn't get it right.

In the end I went with:

The Ghosts of American Gothic

Great stuff so far, I was going to do an old addams family type thing but I couldn't find anything good enough

armchairninja

spent a bit of time on this, just playing around with settings etc. also gave the opportunity to learn some new techniques, good theme!;)

Sorry 6th. I did have a far bolder one in mind but not for love nor money could I find even a semi decent source image.

Sorry didnt know how to get it to display in the post, delete if ye want

Welcome to the contest Arathorn. Thats a great pic, thank you for sharing.
I think most folks use imageshack to host their pics so they can be posted onscreen.

so for example if a pic is online somewhere like the one you posted it has a URL.
if you wrap the URL in [IMG][/IMG] tags it gets displayed.

(quote one of the other posts message to see the code) If you're writing in advanced mode there is an insert image thingy at the top you can click also.

The beauty of imageshack it that after uploading your image it gives you the link already wrappped in the tags to link to their site)

If I could have placed my finger on that nude picture of yours things would be alot worse.

Of course, just rushed off my feet.

5uspect

Good stuff, I was thinking about starting the thread but its your theme so I didn't want to jump the gun.

GhostInTheRuins
