At the risk of bugging you, I just thought I'd let you know that I made a slight alteration to the WP. It was pointed out to me that the mirroring of real!Jack in the top right corner caused his wings to be on the wrong side. So he's been flipped back around again.

Here via at_the_ritz. They're both lovely :)

Simple's sometimes the best way to go, so don't feel guilty about that!

Can I make a couple of tiny suggestions, though?

1. Find the clone tool on your graphics software (should look like a couple of brushes, one in outline), so you can get rid of the DOGs (the BBC logos). Thankfully, this will be less of a problem next series, as the episodes will be on BBC2, first off, where there are no DOGs.

2. Avoid obvious mirroring. Sometimes, you can get away with it. I know I have. But your real!Jack at the top right of this one has his wings on the wrong side.

Have fun, and do write us some Jack/Jack, when you've seen 1.12!

LOL, you are good! The mirroring of the wings on real!Jack never occurred to me - I just wanted his pic to be facing our!Jack's pic. Bugger. I'm going to have to think about how I'm going to fix that one.

As for the clone tool, I had a look for it and instead found a clone stamp. I played around with it just for a little while this morning, and let's just say that I'm going to need a LOT of practice with it! I did manage to cover the logo, but in an obvious way.

Thank you Laura for your feedback. When my brother left for the UK he sold me his computer and it has Adobe on it. I played around with Adobe briefly a few years back, and then started playing around with it again a few days ago, but I really have no idea of what it can fully do. So suggestions are very welcome and appreciated.

If I head on over to your LJ will I see some of your art work? I'd love to have a look at it.

You're welcome :)

Yes, it can be difficult to get the hang of.

Yes. Lots and lots and lots, she says, obsessively. Paintshop Pro is extremely hard to put down ;) There are still some things among my latest entries, Torchwood and New Who art and icons. Some of my Smallville stuff is in my memories. I may get back to Clark and Lex, now they're actually on my TV again.

Come and look :)

Thanks :-D Wow... you're brave! LOL! I couldn't imagine telling anyone at work about my slashy little pleasures, let alone having anything slashy about so they could see it.

LOL. I think my brother knows... years ago (back when we were both living at home with mum and dad) he came into my room to use my computer and I'd been reading a slash Man From Uncle zine, which I left on the desk. The cover had a beautiful piece of art work of a naked Illya wraped in a blanket in Napoleon's arms. When my brother saw it he said, "What the hell is this?" (He then went on a spiel about bored house wives). When he asked me if I wrote that stuff, I lied through my teeth, put on my best innocent face, and said, "Do I look like I could write about gay sex". It was never mentioned again, and I NEVER left a slashy zine out again either :-D
