Speed Challenge 26

[Michele]

Here is the photo for Speed Challenge 26. How do you visualize this scene other than what you see here? Using any creative techniques you know or might want to learn for the first time. You need to keep the original scene in tack. You may post up to three final photos as long as they are all very different from one another or just post one.

Deadline is: Sunday, December 18th. Have fun and I can't wait to see the results...

This is my first time trying. Normally time is in short supply.

Here it is as a snow globe. I thought about animating it the file would tend to be quite large.

[Michele]

that is really cool!!

[FocusingOnFlorida]

Thank you, I rushed a bit on that one, but it does say snow globe to me. So here is another try.

[Michele]

I really like your idea and I like the black background better than the white..Nice work!!

[FocusingOnFlorida]

My third and final entry. Snowmen could day-dream in bubbles if someone added a little soap. :

I hope you don't mind. I used your website for the advertisement on the side of the bridge.

[Michele]

too cute.... i don't mind at all...

Here is how you can post a link to a picture (I think). I'll post a screen shot and perform the operation below it. If it works, you will only see the screen shot once.

How would ppl download the photo from a hidden page on my site with just having a link? I have "no right click" activated on my website and I am not sure how to disalarm that for one page. Its a template website and I am NOT good at doing things like this.

You don't have to put it on a hidden page. It just needs to be on your server. If you make the link directly to the photo as you do when you post a picture to view, it will automatically come up in a browser window and people will be able to right click and save it. You only need to use the Url brackets instead of the Image brackets.

Just a note. I build websites for a living and disabling right click does nothing but agravate people that right click to go back and forth through sites. There are many ways people can still take your images. I could get any picture on your website. Your best bet is to use a watermark in your image (semi-transparent). Also, most pictures on a website are of too low resolution to be of much use to most people anyway.

I won't go over the ways to get pictures off a site other than right clicking here, but if you would like to know more I will email a list of ways.

The OP wanted to know how to create a link to an image not embed one.

[Michele]

Im still lost with this image posting thing. I apologize for the hassle and lack of knowledge. But I had no idea I was going to be in this position of having to do this. *

I am not worried about ppl taking photos off my site. It was just something that came with the template for my design and I just left it be.* I do have a watermark and I made it quite light.* Thank you though for offering the list and all, but I am really not too interested.*

Love that globe . Any tips on making one ?
Thanks DC2

Hello DC2,

I use PhotoImpact when editing many of my photos. It has quite a few tools that will help to create these things quicker than in photoshop. The Program is created by Ulead. http://www.ulead.com. This is one of those nice programs under $100.00

Also buying the boxed version is best, as it comes with a pretty good instruction manual.

I do things differently everytime so I will need to sit down and do it again and create screen-shots as I go. (If anyone has the program and is interested.) Otherwise I will have to take the time to see if or how I could accomplish the same thing in Photoshop.

[dc2]

Thanks Russel its not a programme I have but maybe I will download the trial version and have
a look
Thanks again

[Michele]

Okay.... Here is a link to the photo on a website page of mine.* I don't have a clue on what else I am suppose to do with the link, etc. I apologize if this still isn't the right way.* I sure hope it is though.*

I will keep my fingers crossed that it is though...

[Michele]

BTW, I wasn't sure what size to make it at.... this kind of stuff is s
