Making My Own Postcards

Sometimes I capture what I consider a good snapshot but not a polished photograph. That doesn't mean I throw it away but it does make it available for some learning experience. I've shown you some cool posters made on pieces of a striding tiger where he appears to be walking out of his frames photograph. Now I'm delving back into custom postcards where just the hint of a background can really make something unique. I hope you like this one.

I like that! Photoshop is too technical for me.

That looks great Bob, it has a nice 'Antique' look about it, great idea.

Re: Making My Own Postcards

I also find photoshop completely baffling!! I made an account and then sat there looking at it and wondered exactly what made these things happen lol
It would be really wonderful if Bob was to give us an idiots guide lesson in some very basic tasks so we can get the ball rolling.. I have managed to get a photo into my account and thats where im up to lol A step by step guide with no complicated waffle would be right up my street
Pretty pretty please Bob with a big cherry on the top
lol

Oh, I do echo Cassie's request! But we mustn't overwhelm him with too many Qs like the photography forum .....
