Have nothing better to do on a frigid January afternoon - take some of your favorite flower shots to the Editor and hit Ctrl+I to get their exact opposite colors. Always duplicate the background layer before you start (Ctrl+J).
HAVE FUN.

Char,
That is really outstanding. Some people have to stay realistic, but for me color is a wonderful toy to experiment with. So glad you tried it.

Janis,
It's easy to use Pixentral to post your image. Upload image to pixentral.com. (http://pixentral.com/)
Copy the second link under the uploaded image. In your message format, click on the "Insert Link" icon (blue globe-like thing) and paste the pixentral link. That should do it!

I don't think I'm copying it correctly?

Janis, make sure you copy the entire second URL - I can see you're missing some of it. Triple clicking on it should get it all.

I cheated a bit and applied some hue and saturation adjustments after the invert...

let's try this again:) oh good, it finally worked, thanks Julie for your help, and Ron for the tut. This picture wasn't brightened, but I did do one that I needed to darken a bit. This is fun

Thanks, Janis. Hamish is a Cairn Terrier. Photos were taken when he was 10-12 weeks old. He is a lovely dog, full of fun and affection. What kind of dogs do you have?
