Well up until today, the most i have used photoshop for is to do things that basically could be done with Paint, but i started looking at some of the stuff in here and was inspired…so for my first attempt at a piece of photoshop art, could someone give me some feedback on this pic?

Nope, they still aren’t viewable, at least not for me. Try attaching them to the post, using the thingy below.

Tripod (or just about any other free hosting service) doesn’t allow remote linking of images (or posting them anywhere other than your Tripod pages). The reason they’re showing up for you is because they’re stored in your Browser’s cache. You can overcome their anti-hotlinking by changing your image extentions to .txt. That’s how I have my footer banner stored at Geocities and still use it on this forum (Right click \> Properties. You’ll notice it’s a “text” file).

not bad… keep working at you photoshop skills, you’ll get it - just practice.
Hey Eilsoe, you’re pretty good with photoshop and the like (or am I assuming here??😛 )… ever checked out [theroot42.org](http://theroot42.org)? I enjoy the forum, but beware if you have thin skin.
Peace
