Hi Kathy,
I agree Marti has really helped me take my website and computer graphic up a few notches. She is AWESOME!!! I've learned plenty and I'm sure I'll learn even more in the months and years to come.
;>)
Hi William- I am so happy tonight as I played with the Text part forever to get it right, and to actually make the calendar itself. My friend I would suggest you get comfortable, and just keep playing :) You're more tech savvy than I am so it might be easier.
Ann-Marie-Unfortunately my Company Website is a template, so not much I can do to change the Graphics, but Marti did design my Blog, and my Blog Header :) Very very talented Artist with a soul.....that's the best part.
Travis- I love it when people agree..... LOL :)
I need some more time...I wanna calendar on mine too :) Good for you Kathy..you're learning quick!
Hi Kathy, soooooooooooooooo cool to see my plain English tech lessons paid off, I knew you'd get it. My wallpapers looked terrible at the beginning. It's just trial and error as I told you, nothing is written in stone. I'm proud of you kiddo! Have a great Sunday!
I'm going to have to devote a day just to play with Marti's wallpapers..........they're so enticing, and you've done a wonderful job! I'm proud of you!
Sally- Wow, can you believe I actually learned it :) I can't wait to see yours when you do it...those beautiful Hawaiian Pictures would make beautiful Calendars/Wallpaper :)
Marti- Thank you friend. I wasn't sure I'd get it, but anything new I ask a bunch of questions then just keep trying until I get it :) Anyone that reads your stuff, and/or hires you for your Art or Graphics is one lucky person :) that's my Opinion and I'm sticking to it....have a good day, and I hope all is OK .
Liz- Thanks....I really like my October one....it's a little loud, but the coloring is fall like :) I'm making a trippy one too.....variety :) Maybe later I will just stick to conventional, but for now it's fun. You don't really need a whole day...just a whole lot of patience..... LOL :) Let me know when you make yours...heck I am going to want others for myself too :)
Thank you! I love all the great ideas and new things to try that are posted on active rain. I will be going to your site!
Dinah- Yes, Active Rain, and the members here are full of great information, but also like Marti full of compassion and give back to the community all the time.
Wow, I love that photo of the stairwell. You are doing great. Your blog looks great. Your calendar looks great. I hope to engage marti for some of my own things in the future. This is encouraging to those who haven't tried it yet!
Hi Doreen- Thank you, and thank you for going to my outside blog and checking out the September 2008 Wallpaper/Calendar. That picture of the Stairwell, and another one I took in Solvang, and titled it "Texture" it's easier to see all the different textures on a larger Photo :)
Is the larger photo at your website? I really like the photos of the old buildings with the bright paint and flowers. I just find it beautiful to look at.
Doreen- No...I was going to make it into a Wallpaper, and didn't, but I could :) the picture you see here was my first attempts.....and I sized it wrong and did the verbiage too large....If you want I will make this one and put it up for one of the October ones . do you want it just to be a Wallpaper, or a Calendar also?
Fred- thanks..I really like these, and I like that we can customize them for our own tastes or for others.
Fred- thanks..I really like these, and I like that we can customize them for our own tastes or for others.
Hi Kathy,
I downloaded your wallpaper and calendar, it's awesome. I want to try and make a calendar too when I can string a couple of hours together.
Kathy, great job. Now I need to spend some hours working on all of this stuff.....;-)
Cynthia- I am so glad you liked that one, the next one is more Fall like....the second one up there with the Flower is one of the ones for October. And just think when you learn, you can add this to your Holiday Gifts, along with the fudge, cookies, candles and everything else you make :) Don't forget to let me know when you have one made.....sometimes I miss Posts :)
Teri- Thanks, and it might not take everyone the same amount of time...patience is more like it :) I love marti's stuff...
Encouraging - I have just spend some time looking at the links you provided to get where you are and bookmarked a few - I want to learn how to do this. There is so much that everyone is willing to share!
Thank you for your post. This is great information... and I'll be looking over your site for more "stuff."
Cathy-This really is a very caring community....marti has helped so many of us, and his tutorials are quite detailed. If you get stuck just ask him, or you can ask me....but that could be dangerous :) Anyway, good luck with them, and if you have a question serioulsy ask. If someone doesn't know the answer we usually know who might. That's the beauty of this site.
Jon-Ahh....my outside blog site is relatively new...I am working on getting more "stuff" on it. My AR blog has many hidden jewels in past posts.....as does marti's. Enjoy :)
Hi Kathy, Congratulations! I haven't gotten that far as yet but maybe tomorrow I will also give it a try. Marti sure does have a way, doesn't he. He is so amazingly talented.
