    This one is oldie (I made this months ago) and it is called "Shut Up I'm Driving". I am not very pleased with Beverly in this one, but oh well. :p The original pic had this comic-like feeling in it so therefore the bright colors, etc.

    I call this one "I wish I knew how to quit you."
    (I wish it were larger, but the original sample I found wasn't very big).

    Thank you! Actually, Picard was easy. Now Vader lovingly stroking his cheek? That took a little more work. :lol:

    Oh, you fooled me. I thought Vader's "caressing touch" was part of the original pic. :lol:

    ^ Your work is amazing! To a Photoshop Faceswap Monkey such as me, the artistic qualities are an inspiration.

    :D

    Thank you both so much!! I am happy you like them!! :D

    ITL, you should see my work when i first started....actually... I would prefur if you didn't... HAHAHAHA :) I have worked in PS for almost.......10 years now... and I still think half of my work is crap.... it just take time to get use to it, and practice, practice, practice. :)

    Is Photoshop easy to use? I use Paint Shop Pro X2 and from what I hear, Photoshop has a lot more tools. I'm too cheap to buy it, but I was just curious.

    By the way, don't be modest. You do an excellent job. With your permission, I'd like to save a couple of these as wallpapers, but only if you're okay with it first.

    Oh, and don't let ITL fool you either. If you need a spectacular space vista for a message board, a gorgeous mesh of science and fantasy, that is the person for the job, too! :D

    I don't use PhotoShop. I use Paint Shop Pro too. I have version 7, which I am so accustomed to that I don't even want to update it, even though I have setup for version 10 available.:p

    It just feels more intuitive to me. I don't think after all these years I could get used to Photoshop, so I'm like you. :D

    I used 7 all the way up until 2 years ago, then I bought 9 and then X2. While I like X2, I miss Jasc. When Corel takes over anything, the price multiplies by 5 and improvements are few and far between. X2 is nice, though. It has a lot of nice features. I just got standard, though.

    Umm, it's fairly easy to use once you know your basics about PS. I am actually still learning PS too. It seems like when ever I get use to it, they bring out a new version. I have CS 3 right now, and I won't get CS 4 I don't think.. i am still trying to wrap my brain around the last one.. haha :D

    I also have PSP, 6 i think... I haven't use it in awhile, but there are so nice tutorials and stuff out for PSP so it's nice to take a break from PS and go play with the new kid on the block. lol :D

    ANd J, you're more then welcome to take any of my work. If you go to my site, there is a crapload of wallpapers and stuff there too if you want to take a look :) But yes, you don't need any permission from me, I love the fact (and honored) that you like my work enough to use it.. hahaha :P

    And something I did earlier this year.. thought it came out kinda cute ^^

    Belana, you're doing fantastic work! I really like those "down to Earth" scenarios with Star Trek crew. :)

    That one of Kim and Seven is spectacular. The only thing is... you need to give Harry a Star Trek sideburn. ;)

    Tachyon, that's great work! I really like the concept and the facial expressions are perfect for it. As for Beverly, I think she needs a little more neck and Picard a little less of it. Otherwise, I think it's splendid. :D
