Since this thread specifically says it is for May 2009, why not start a new one for Topaz that is a permanent ongoing thread, like they did for Overlays and Textures.


Second the motion: we need a "Topaz Permanent" thread...

I think you need to have an SC member do that.

I think the thread's already pretty long, and the longer they get (and the more images) the slower they are to load. Makes sense to me to start a new one...

Here's another Florida sky. Fortunately I love to look at these huge storm clouds, because this has been an almost permanent condition for the past two weeks: Sun > Beautiful sky > Thunder storms.



Thank you, Michelle, for starting this side challenge. This has been great fun and a great learning experience.

One more of my favorite Post Office building.



This has been lots of fun this month! And it was the first side challenge I managed to stick with all the way through, posting every day. I may try to join in some next month, but I also want to check out the other side challenges and don't want to spread myself too thin. ;)

Let's just leave this thread going here for now, and when it gets too long - we'll just start a new one :)

Now I have to find a picture to post :)

I've enjoyed seeing all the beautiful photos in this thread btw!

That's absolutely beautiful, but please, PLEASE pull out the skew tool and get rid of the tilted orientation:-)

I'll go ahead and cross-post this one from the other side challenge, since I Topazed the heck out of it ;) I don't know what I'd do without Topaz now!

Over at the Topaz Flickr page they run themed contests. One of the themes was to use Clean, Adjust, and Simplify on separate parts of them image. So this photo kind of runs with the theme but I did some more Topaz Clean on the whole photo to create some interesting textures.

Okay - I went after the poppy pictures using "Clean" this morning, and didn't get very far. the first image I selected will keep me busy for a long time. Here are a few play edits.

cartoon was fun but didn't fit in with the rest of the edits.

May I join in?

ETA: I'm keeping this one fairly simple
