I've been doing a lot of work on Photoshop here lately and just thought I would share it with some of you. Also, from time to time, I'll be posting Photoshop tutorials for anyone wishing to improve their skills or learn new ones. Enjoy!

As everyone knows, I'm addicted to photoshop! ADDICTED!! Therefore, I've been entering a lot of contests and what not. Well, I'm also addicted to ER, and the characters "Ray" and "Neela" on the show. At Live Journal, there is a community for icon making there. Roomies LIMS makes use of photoshop talent and lovers of the same characters in order to creat absolutely beautiful fan art. This round, we were required to make banners for some of the fanfiction posted on another community, Neela and Ray:Doctor's in the House. The author's gave their permission, of course, and we set to work. I was extremely honored to recieve the "Mod's Choice" award in this round! Below is my winning banner and my winner's banner.(both made by me...)

If you like the TV show "ER", or if you're looking for some really cool icons to use as avatars, then check out this page. All were made by butterflyswest or myself and are gorgeous...better yet, they're free and will appeal to just about any taste. Have fun!

Yet another round has gone by at Roomies LIMS at Livejournal, and I made it another round!!! Yay for me! The challenge was especially tough this time...in the Category "Fun with Food: Roomies Style". Oh, like that isn't my favorite topic! So, here it is, my second place icon and the second place banner I won.

All right folks...I have good news and bad news...First I won "Mod's Choice" in the latest challenge of the "Roomies LIMS" competition on LiveJournal. Unfortunately, in this same round, I was voted out with the second icon I entered. So...this will be the last winning banner I post here for that contest for a while...at least until the next rotation starts up. Below, I'm posting my winning banner for this challenge...

Just wanted to share my second place win at RoomiesLIMS on LiveJournal. It was a movie poster theme and we had to come up with an original movie, and make up a poster for it, or manipulate an existing movie's poster to accomodate the Roomies ship. Here is my entry and the winner's banner....

I have earned yet another win over at Roomies_LIMS at LiveJournal. Here is my winning banner....
