ET - Don't knock your work. I don't think it's cheesy. You are doing creative things with Joes instead of just sitting around staring at them like alot of collectors do. Your effect it cool, it looks like it might be an Ion rocket or something like that.

As for me being a Pro, you honor me however - as I said before, I get my inspiration from the work of others. For example, your Purple Haze shot inspired me to do the Flying Pinata series. Jim's diorama work got me inspired to start working on larger scale diorama's again. Brian's shots got me thinking about adding more detail to my landscape after seeing his rocky terrain technique.

I'll try to get some screenshots posted one of these days and show how to work with layers, opacity, filters....

Keep postin' them pics!!!
