And you call yourself a beginner!!! I knew better than that!!

Sheesh..... And I thought I would teach you!!! (hee hee! more to come on that statement!)   Got any good hints???  We are pretty much the same level.  We just do thngs a bit different! Cool!!   This adds a whole new view!! COOL!!!  Ollie

I guess I'm somewhere in between the same as Nay. Some of the stuff interests me more than others so I might be high in one place and low in another. I know I like to just play around and see what stuff does. Sometimes I do something once and can't figure out what I just did to get there. It will drive me crazy trying to duplicate the process.

Nay, if it makes you feel any better... I cannot grasp the blinkie thing... ( remember the background phase??), I can do some things on that list but are hopeless at others... I have done some simple vectors... like my faery wings ( I think I lost them) But shading with Gaussion Blur.... Pul..eese... way beyond me. we are pretty much at the same place but where I am strong... I can teach you.... and where I am weak.. you can teach me!! Good partenership (sp?)  Ollie

Here's my reply.....I couldn't even figure out how to click on anything at that site....dumb!  so I'm a basic PRE-beginner.  I go to the tutorials and look at them and am overwhelmed...so I guess I'll keep trying. di
