Nice work folk. Very festive.

I'm beginning to feel the faint stirrings of the Christmas spirit in spite of everything.
Peace, friends.

Thanks, chudzta.

Yeah, I'm feeling all warm and fuzzy this season too, Steve. Happy Holidays, bud.

Thanks for all the great holiday sigs.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS....

Actually, this is the first time it's looked cool like that. Sort of looks like snow around the edges.

thanks silence, i ran out of time for adding that mat colour to it so i just cropped the jpeg from here and then converted it to a gif and selected white as bg but it didnt turn out right, and lost way too much detail on the conversion...


edit:Maqha you are great, thanks a million merry christmas, that little gem will be added to my store of info.

I took a stab at it...

The first thing I did was to have a look at the red, green and blue channels. the 'blue' one was the blackest, so I duplicated that one. I inversed it (the deal is to make a selection for a mask to give the layer transparency) so that the parts which should remain visible were white in the channel, then I painted all the center white (as it should be completely visible) and loaded the selection from the channel. I used the selection for a mask on the original image. then, I gave the layer an inner glow (the layer effect) in black, to get rid of the remains of the white background.

after the transparency was fixed, I downsized it, and exported it in a 256-color gif.

mahjqa do you mind if i use this please?

thanks tom

Hell no, go ahead. I made it for you, you know.
