Having a go at technical stuff ...

[dizzojay]

Every day I come on Lj and every day I am amazed and astounded by the fabulous computer art that you clever lot can produce, and every day I consistently fail to have even the vaguest idea of how it's done.

However, talking to one of my lovely Lj friends, I've been pointed towards a programme called GIMP which does all the wizzy art stuff, is supposedly fun and easy to use, and above all, free!

So a couple of weeks ago, I decided to take the plunge and downloaded it; since then have been fumbling, swearing and flailing my way around it.

So here is my first ever attempt at a piece of technological photo-fiddly art; and by the way, I still don't have the faintest clue about what I'm doing .. this all kind of fell together more by luck than judgement!
