I aim to please :D

Why he feels the need to attack Sid out of the blue, when there is not even an discussion ongoing, I don't know.
I don't really want to get into an argument with him over it because lately there has been enough of animosity on the board.
But an animated gif especially for him seemed appropriate.
And if the mods don't like it, they can delete, no problem.

I need to get on my laptop and save that!

I can mail it to you, and some different types too if you like

I've saved that one, but others might come in handy...

Got your email G... Those are some good ones....

How about that little boy on the rocking horse? :D

my mom will get a kick out of that one...

Man, I get busy at work and miss the action. Now I have to catch up!

Took the beast out for its first run of the season. Had a high idle issue but I think its dialed out not. She did bite me while making the adjustment. I think I improved some kids vocabulary with an un planned out burst.

Use the gradient fill over a larger area from middle to top and then middle to bottom to make the selection spread out the transition of blur so it is more gradual.

I also clip out the car onto it's own layer to set it off from the background so the blur can continue down behind the car without blurring the car itself.

On some I blur the background in pieces to add a bit more depth to the background while still getting the tilt/shift effect.

After you get the tilt/shift down you can clean up the pic and add some action

And get crazy with customizing the car itself

I'll have to play with it more and use a better photo.

bitten by the ignition wires.... i love it when that happens.

no she did not do that, but she didn't want to give back my hand after it got caught on one of the engine pad tabs.

Those pictures are great. I just need to find or take the a good one to start with.

huh?

The sound insulation pad. One of the tabs got me as I pulled my hand out. Thin piece of sheet metal

Ouch!
