Hi Carl...welcome to the planet...hope you manage to get some pics posted.
It's not too difficult...first just make sure they're not too big (under 100k)...before you submit your post...you'll see a box at the bottom that allows you to add a file (picture) to your message..just click on browse and find where your picture is located..and click on it..and away you go....be patient as it depends on your connection speed...you may need to give it a minute....and if it don't show the picture in your post the first time....you can click on 'edit' post and try again...it don't always work first time....good luck..will soon become second nature....

All the best..

Roy.

Nice individual style. I'm always glad to see someone who isn't afraid to march to the beat of his own drummer in painitng and this looks very well executed from a shading perspective. And if you can get that quality of pic off a mobile you must have talent.

Warriors SS bust? Very nice job! I love the snow effect. For pics, I take photos on a digi camera, then upload them to photobucket for posting them here. Welcome to the planet by the way!

 

[Guy]

Welcome to the planet Carl.........love your style of painting. Beautiful figure

 

[CarlStartin]

Big thanks for the warm welcome to you all, its nice to speak with so many talented artists from all over the world :lol: .Thanks evan the bust is a warriors sculpted i think by the great mr rosengrant.Heres another shot of a warriors 35th figure (IF IT TURNS OUT!!)

 

[Dan Morton]

Sweet! I'm in agreement with Guy - individual style in painting is a definite plus! Welcome! As to modifying the pics, I use Adobe Photoshop as I think several others do. Simple to operate and flexible. Allows you to re-size photos, save them for the web, alter focus, control coloration, etc. Quang seems to have the best technical grasp of digital photography and I think he's using Photoshop, so I'd refer questions to him.

All the best,
Dan
