Description Got bored ... Started searching through Stock Exchange for animals came across the tiger. So i started playing with it. I like doing animal art cause you can put them into any kind of an environment and they still look at home. Im not done with this piece yet .. i dont think ... it hasnt reached the point i wanted it to but my back is killing me and im pretty tired so Im leaving it as is for now. Maybe some other day i will play with it again ... I always save .psd formats so I can always come back and reconstruct or edit. Anyways .. I created the moon, sky, stars, and clouds in photoshop .... the tiger is a photomanip as well as the grass, leaves, and flowers. I dont know what exactly is going on with the sky lol I just wanted lots of color. Im all about color. Came out ok i guess.

Critique Welcome.

All photomanips can be found here [link]
I searched ... tigers ... field .. and tree .. i believe.
Bird Brushes can be found on ~thiselectricheart 's page. I strongly recommend these brushes if you want to add some distant birds into your image.

Time spent: about 3 hours (altogether)
Tools Used: PhotoShop & Stock Exchange

Do you mean the CSS file I am using for my Journal? Sorry I'm kinda new to the whole DA lingo.

Oh....I think I messed up. I got this journal from a DA member here and I like it but I'm still trying to figure out how the heck to use it!

By the way, is that Resting Tiger print available for sale? My daughters boyfriend is a tiger fanatic and when I showed her your print she wanted me to see if it is something we can purchase around Christmas time for her gift to him.

If it's not that's ok but I thought I would ask.

aw im sorry no i dont have a print account. That would make my day tho. Someone taking a print of my work. Sorry I couldn't be of service. And i also lost the original PSD form of the picture. Or I would offer just to help out by blowing it up a bit for atleast saving to take to a print shop.

I will try my hardest to help out by making another. I have been redoing my old images lately. Since i have somewhat improved on this whole manipulation thing since i first started. I can't make any promises ofcourse but i will try ... Ill even start looking now.

As for the journal. Do you know of which one it is? If it is one of my templates just let me know I'll do my best to help you make it work. Thanks again for the great compliment.

That's ok, I am a little confused anyway as to how this print account vs subscriptions work. I thought when I bought I a subscription that I had access to setting my print prices but I found out after the fact that I had to buy 2 accounts! If you are able to redo it that would be fantastic but please do not go through to much trouble with the way teenage relationships last I can't be certain they will still be together by christmas (lol) Their good kids so they may surprise me but.....

The journals are another thing all together. Do you know if it is necessary for me to copy that code every time I create a new journal? It is hard to write what I want when I have to scroll through the codes to figure out what section to type in. I actually have not used one of yours yet, I was going to try it tonight and I'll let you know. Perhaps not all of them are as confusing as the one I am currently using.

Oh before I forget...I don't know if you do much with Flickr but I host a group that has almost 800 members (not bad for starting it only 5 months ago!) anyhow, I strarted it specifically with people like you in mind. Your work is fabulous! I would love to have you join our group if you like. There are no contests or funny hoops, it's just a place to show of your work and to share tutorials and such.

Here is the link if you are interested...[link]

I know this is a long message so thanks for reading! I'll be keepin my eye out for your new manips.

Okay well I do plan on trying to remake that picture. But i do know what you mean about teenage love. Its fullblown one minute ... then dead the next lol. So I hear you on that part.

As for flickr, No i don't have an account on there. I will definitely give your club a shoutout if i do decide to join tho.

And for the journals. The CSS stays in the bottom of the code i believe. If you want another layout you have to change the CSS code. But i think you do have to keep pasting the code into the entry box everytime you want a new one yes. a bit annoying i know. But a small price to pay to have a great looking journal.
