Christina Nilsson christina.nilsson19@comhem.se said on 2008-10-04 05:10:29 Oh, it's just lovely this tutorial, just what I was looking for. I tryed to download the brushes but only a page with incomprehensive words showed up.
I have previously downloaded brushes from other your tutorials so I can't understand why it doesn't work this time.
Please let me know how to do, I would appreciate it very much.

i just dont like to see the harsh edges of light coming in from the side, if it was gradual, i think it would make a better photo. |
