Little Ducky/pond scene

I know many of you thought it was okay the way it was, but I just had to ad to it. I think my layer count is up around 18 now, I like it. Let me know what you think.

Bob,
very nice but perhaps just one butterfly. It is becoming, in my HO a little cluttered.
Kev.

Thanks Kev. I went back and looked at it with only the butterfly on the left with the flower and the duck in the background and it does look better with the other stuff removed. One question. I renamed my background layer and now I can't resize the canvas size. Any idea on how to still do this? Thanks Kev

Hi Bob ...

Nice work but my vote is still with the simpler version :)

Renaming the background layer shouldn't have any effect at all on resizing the image Image>Resize>Canvas Size should still work OK ... whats the problem when you try to do that ?

Bob,

I agree with Kev and Wendy - you have gone overboard with the butterflys and flowers :D

Hi Wendy. When I og to resize the canvas size the option that lets you choose the canvas exstension color is no longer highlighted. And when I a done all there is is a shadow where the canvas was exstended.

Hi Bob ...

Now that you have done the resixe ... just go to your layers palette and create a new layer, drag it to the bottom of the layers palette and fill it with the colour of your choice ...

That should fix it :)
