Love it! Great title too. Beware: Photoshop is seriously addictive. |

Is that your own house? Setting fire to lots of cats in the bedroom upstairs and then colour grading the result in photoshop gets you a result similar to that. And yes I still think it's a great title. Just wait, until you are sitting in your boxer shorts at 4 am working in photoshop and trying to blend out the little patches of blue sky between the leaves of a tree for that perfect moonlit image somewhere down the line. |

No, my house is better than that. Well, it's easier to clean, anyway. Here's a final version:

I like the ghostly/melting/shadows on the brickwork. I think the title should be in a ghostly white though. |

I really like the effects on that house - it's either under water, or lit by strange energy, or we're the P.O.V. of... something.... You can barely read the word "steps" - I have to strain; same with the blurry tag at the bottom. Also, can you try it with your name and that title not so squiggly, leaving the effect upon the home? I have appx. 78 more variations for you to try, so clear your schedule today.... |

Just ignore me - I'm just playing with my new toy and using the board to check it out.

I can only use it cos I trained up on Corel Draw. It's very similar. It involves the deeply unfashionable task of reading the manual. |

...not sure about the last three pictures as the word "steps" appears to be too regular, unlike the rest of the words in the title. |

I think the second one's the best. (The second picture, that is, not the second film in that epic series your **ahem** "uncle" likes.) |

I like best the type-font of your title on picture #1 (from the top down), but the rest of the fx on #4. Good stuff, Gary! |
