Hey guys,
I just finished practicing using adjustment layers and advanced layer grouping. I was just doing this for practice, but I kinda liked the results, so I thought I'd share it with you. Just to clarify...this is basically a total rip of the original...I did not start this from scratch, I just tweaked it to my liking. But, since the original was freely available for DL off the web, I'm doing the same. ;)
I'd love to get your feedback on how I did. And as a special treat, since I like you guys so much, I linked the thumbnails here to full-size, high-rez versions, so if you like, you can DL the pics for yourselves.
<edit> I realized I didn't explain what I did. I added the long blond hair, gave her blue eyes, natural color lips, pink flower petal dress, and blue-yellow-purple iridescent wings. </edit>
Here is the pic I first modified (click the thumbnail for full size pic):

And here is the desktop BG pic I put together. It is started from the nVidia GeForce FX "dawn" desktop, but I made it a Quadro pic since that's what I'm using.

Hope you like 'em.
