Thanks! This is PSP X2. The PC I put the X5 onto was the new one that crashed. I wasn't sure if the free trial was what crashed it, so I didn't install it on my old PC after we returned the new one. I do plan on purchasing the hard copy program once I have some extra cash and handing the old version down to Alex. But for Now I am still on X2. :(

I used the Displacement settings and Jasc Animation to animate it. I tried to use Gimp but I couldn't find out how to slow down the animation. I did gather screenshots though of how to make the non-animated version of the image with Gimp. Figured I would get some Gimp tutorials out for folks too.

Does anyone know of an online program to use for animation? I used to use Luna pic, but it always made the images smaller.

I use animation shop ancient as it is. Also use the program below for rain, and have played with it a little with water, but just easier for me to go with what I already know. The water is prettier and smoother with this program, also sending morphing link.....haven't tried it. Not into morphing, lol.

Thank You! :) Don't be worried about having time for layouts. Connie, you have bigger things on your plate than making layouts these days! I'm saying my prayers that they get you all patched up. Physical Therapy sounds scary, but I think it's a good idea.

I'm glad to have you stopping by and keeping me company. :) Lord knows we are both busy with our families lately. I know as the weather gets nice I will be outside with the kids more often. Guess that is part of the reason I am accepting the image only options in the future. It will be one less thing on my to do list every time they change something. lol I like to see the silver lining and consider that things happen for a reason. ;)

Thanks Connie! Each site owner can change the CSS to their liking for that area, but since I am planning on making cover images for standard Ning sites, I am going to keep it fairly standard. The main thing I did was add transparency.

Glad you are not intimidated anymore, no one should be. If I thought everyone knew how to do this stuff I wouldn't make the tutorials. :) I like helping people learn about CSS and Design or trust me, I wouldn't be here. lol

AnGella I love the scroll bar geez if they are REALLY insisting it has to be a scroll bar in the blame header/image the one you have is totally awesome!!!! Those are the ugliest things, I know many love to use them and that great just not for me with our code anyway. Back in the day when we had TW code it worked nice but was still ugly but served a great purpose to show the back ground lifting up the front page of comments and allowing the bg to show. We have better ways cause we have the best thing going Ms AnGella the code geek♥ I have loved your work from day one yrs and yrs ago but I was scared of you. haha Because I wasn't on your level and had no idea of how giving and sweet and willing to work with us you are. Seriously I scared to even ask you anything. Wow I am so glad I got to know you better.... And this is for anyone please get to know Angela as she has time she is awesome sweet giving helpful and so loving patient lawd belive me she would have to be to work with me. Your da best♥ Thanks for friends add I am right there with ya...

The Designers widget is back! I was revamping the site and had to fix lots of things today. Hope you had a happy Mother's day. Veitz is hungry since we just got home from my uncle's. BBL!

OMGoodness your so far up the chain> I am having a time right now I am having a very hard time trying to find layouts without the designers name on the side :~{ When I need to grab a code from an old one or look at yours to see if I am missing something or just browse to see all the layouts whatever I cannot sit and go through page after page of theme, I never get anywhere. That makes me to wonder its got to be that hard for others too. Just browsing for a theme takes way to long. Then I noticed my rss doesn't show them all either as I thought. In my blog group I said I am running my rss so you can find more of "my" layouts but it takes you to the featured page not the rest of my layouts. I am so lost!!!! boo hoo hoo can't get anthing done quick. Happy I finally got a layout done anyway:~} I was trying to find the correct wide code everyone I have wacks out the code... So I have looked all day for it and now I gotta leave for church. I will be back searching soon. I don't keep good files so I depend on looking back at layouts for tweaks or anything at times. ((HUGS)) Happy Mothers Days to all♥
