I don't have a studio, so my living room had to do for this shot. Would anyone care to photoshop something cool in place of the distracting living room? I also have a Neat Imaged version that I personally think is better but I wanted to provide the original in case anyone wanted to work from that.

I don't think it would be easy to turn this shot into something that looked like it came from a studio (but if you'd like to try, feel free) but I know that someone out there could do something really interesting with this. Anything from a plain solid background to fairy dust to humor (as long as it's tasteful) would be welcome!

Thanks! :-D

Do you have a bigger version than 800px? If so I'll have a go. You can send it to angelicmynci (at) yahoo.com

The image(s) weren't resized, so the only way to get bigger is a looser crop, which I doubt is what you mean.

DPC automatically resizes your image. Your original should be much larger unless you shoot low quality for your camera.

Please put a warning on that - I'm at school!

And you should be learning not playing on DPC.

Ahh, right.

But, it only resized about 30 pixels or so... probably not enough to make a difference, right?

It's currently at 800px wide and with having to extract the image from the background it's always better to have bigger. It can still be done but it's always cleaner when bigger. I'll have a go anyways.

Oh okay! I will send you an email asap (going to send now but with dialup may take a bit to get to you)

Here you go girl...hope you get some calls from this pic. I'd rent some space on that back!

By the way...You seem to have "nice" hands...from what I can see on your right one.

Enjoy!

Thank you! I have "piano player's fingers" and although I love the way my hands look in real life, sometimes I think they look too thin in photos. So yay! :-)

(sometimes too thin works: <--- my hand!)

I'm on dialup so I got to see the top bit first and that was all it took to know just what was going to be there.. I think it's so hillarious that I was able to see a tiny bit and instantly be able to appreciate* what the rest of the photo was.

* "appreciate" used loosely ;-p

OMG... all that nudity and no warning next to the link. What were you thinking... Now the crusaders will be marching down upon you.

Love your sense of humour... twisted as it might be... it does lighten things up. Good job.

Black paint to rough out the shape, burn along the edges a bit, then new gradient layer with a black gradient set to Radial and adjusted the scale so it clipped around your body. Light is from photoshop Filter->Render->Light Source, then a tad of NI to make it a bit more glowy. Glad you like it.
