Frog. Edit--I felt --for symbolic reasons--that the Frog ought to be leaping in instead of leaping out. So I made a second try at this. I think I still like the composition of the first one better, but it depends on the dweomer which one really works best. In the "leaping in" case, the frog...

I'd forgotten how much fun these are. And how tricky. Like doing puzzles.

I can't take credit for these two. The Scampering Chaos saw what I was up to and wanted a chance to do some of her own. I'd have drawn them differently but I can't argue with the concepts: "bridge" and "wings" are pretty cool concepts for cards.

Ok, so happens this one was very nearly done when I got pulled away, so it was quick to finish up and post. Every Deck of Many Things should have one of these, right? Edit: Mercy, I am out of practice. I forgot the background mosaic. Adding.

Sorry it's been so long since I've been online. Real life caught me for a while and I just couldn't manage to log in. Gulla, thanks much for comments and I hope your wife isn't too mad at me. Congratulations on the new monitor. I do love that abstract one--I always thought it was full of...

Sialia's Necklace Here's a picture of the necklace. I bought the setting, the chain, and the stone premade, and really just put them together. Can't take a whole lot of credit for this design. But I do love it very much. It's just what I wanted.

Here's the really excellent set of instructions that makes monotor calibration easy--this is the one I was trying to find last night: http://www.aim-dtp.net/aim/calibration/index.htm This is what I used to set my monitor up, so if your settings are done this way, you should be able to see the...

Try this: http://www.alpenglowimaging.com/monitor-calibration.htm And here's two pages to use to check your work: http://www.bryce-alive.net/calibrate/ http://zonezero.com/calibration/english.html It takes a few minutes, but it's cheaper than trying to upgrade a monitor, and it couldn't...

Rodrigo, thanks very much for your comments! These are perfect--very helpful sorts of things for me to know. I'll see what I can do about the contrast issues--it's hard for me to know how things will look on other monitors, but I can be more careful. Also, it may help you to calibrate your...
