As discussed on the Venture thread. Dh said I could put it up if I take it off again sharpish so it'll disappear in a minute!

She's lovely

That looks just like a venture picture!
Gorgeous little girl you have there.

Hulababy Sat 25-Mar-06 13:32:44

That is fab! She is lovely

That'll be because Venture use photoshop themselves [dh went into the office at our local venture and used it to redesign and place the photos we had done because the photographer was struggling to produce the look we wanted.]

WideWebWitch Sat 25-Mar-06 13:34:47

Oh I know lockets, it's just such a rip off imo!

lockets Sat 25-Mar-06 13:37:12

It is a rip off but there are loads of people who'd rather pay than faff about doing it themselves. Wish I could corner a market in something that 'd make me a packet whilst costing a pittance to produce

I can't bloody stand that Venture crap.

But I think yours is actually quite nice, WWW. Seems a bit less identikit.

I mean, you could save several hundred pounds through this faffing about on photoshop. Thats a week's wages for me (were I still working).

Out of interest, did you take the photo against a white background, or use any special equipment ?

i did see it but the site wouldn't let me post! WWW she is gorgeous and dh is obviously very good with cameras!!

WideWebWitch Sat 25-Mar-06 14:54:52

Thanks for all the lovely comments. It was taken by a friend of mine who is training to be a photographer, against a white sheet in a room in her house and then dh Photoshopped it, he's a ace on Photoshop, shall I show you ds as a Jedi?

Filyjonk Sat 25-Mar-06 14:56:03

Ah, so it took some additional skills....hmm, don't really have any of those....

Flossam Sat 25-Mar-06 15:03:52

Yes, That sounds intrigueing WWW!

WideWebWitch Sat 25-Mar-06 15:08:02

Here you go! It was part of an invite for his birthday.

Hulababy Sat 25-Mar-06 15:12:29

Oh wow! That is amazing!

WideWebWitch Sat 25-Mar-06 15:13:54

It says 'join the dark side and together we can rule the galaxy. Episide viii (he was 8!) and the date' how lovely that he wanted to be a dark side Jedi

LadyTophamHatt Sat 25-Mar-06 15:14:52

ohhhh WWW that is FAB, any star wars fan would love that


(can I have a quick little peek at your DD's???)

WideWebWitch Sat 25-Mar-06 15:15:37

Ok is now some kid in a Darth Vader outfit! Dh has done some fab cards and invitations for ds's parties. For the last one everyone got sent home with a picture of them as a Jedi - he took photos of them as they came in and Photoshopped them before they went. Nothing like working under pressure of a load of 8yos!

WideWebWitch Sat 25-Mar-06 15:16:01

OK LTH, putting dd up again for a second! Hang on!

LadyTophamHatt Sat 25-Mar-06 15:17:59

OMG...WWW that is Fan-Bloody-Tastic!!! and she is gorgeous

And I love the jedi photo thing for all the party guests....can i come to your Ds's next party??

LadyTophamHatt Sat 25-Mar-06 15:20:49

Our 1 venture photo of dS3 is exactly like that.

Honestly....I stunned at it. Your Dh is a talented fella, ain't he?!?!?

WideWebWitch Sat 25-Mar-06 15:21:15

You and your 3 boys would be most welcome LTH! Don't know what the theme will be next year, dh does do a wonderful job of making amazing cards (i.e. ds photoshopped onto Michael Owen's body, scoring an amazing goal) and invitations and souvenirs. For his 7th, which was a football party, he photoshopped all the guests' heads onto the entire England team and they each had one to take home. It was cool!

WideWebWitch Sat 25-Mar-06 15:21:49

He is very talented, thank you LTH!

Flossam Sat 25-Mar-06 15:24:48

aww Bless. DP impressed. I can see plans afoot for poor DS already....

LadyTophamHatt Sat 25-Mar-06 15:38:40

who said anything about the ds's coming???
I want to be a Jedi
