Mona Lisa Becomes Pope

Using Wikipedia's random article button, came upon a picture of some pope. Then I just scaled down a pictur of the Mona Lisa and put her face in.

Quick Edit/ Venom taking over Halo

This was just a quick edit off a Halo Pic. What I did was selective filling and painting with the paintbrush. If you get a picture off the internet it will already have set areas. The splatter effect was made by filling in certain areas of the grass and painting the ones that were to big or small.

Swimmer

This is just a quick clip made using pivot. It's just an easier way of showing different slides--much like going between layers in gimp.

Why you should wrestle

To make this I took a picture off Google and pasted my face onto it. I had to fill in the background because this guy's head was bigger that mine. To make my face this type of red I used the Hue Saturation editor under the Colors tab.

Using the Curves Tool to Make Colors Stand Out

I played with the Curves tool on this photo of my dog waiting for a tennis ball. It is one of the more useful tools for basic photo editing. Curves works for changing the color, brightness, contrast or transparency of the active layer or a selection. To use it go to Tools>color tools>curves (or right click on the picture and follow the same path). Not sure how well you can pick up the difference between the two photos on the blog, but basically what I did was create an "s" curve and made the picture pop a little bit. The blue a little bluer, green a little greener, black a little blacker etc.
