I really like this pic. It's got a warm feeling.

Patty, I like how you changed the color of your font. The message is more apparent. Again, I think this scene is a lovely subject choice, and I like how you caught someone lighting a candle in the background. Wonderful color and "glow" here. If you want to and can, I'm also thinking that sharper text might work better here...but that's just an opinion. Mike(MFC)

I liked the blurr *blush*
But I'll ask my boyfriend if he can change it!

By the way, Patty, you can also edit the photo if should you want to change the title. Just click on Edit Image and feel free to change the title as you wish.

Patty, your moving the greeting made the image better than the original version. However, I am not sure why both the image and the text are both blurred. If it's intentional then it would be fine as you're the artist and we're viewers. I think it would be better if the image is blurred while the text is in focus. This is just my opinion. I really do appreciate the efforts you're putting to make your images better. I hope it will continue as it is really satisfying to see our members improve their images every time they post an updated version of their work. Cheers!

Thanks! My father has Adobe, but my computer is to slow for that.. But I can try to download it and see if my computer can handle it!

Thank you very much!

I forgot to put an * in my titles (both of my last entries)

I guess many different things trigger memories of Christmas in all of us, and lighting candles in church certanly qualifies. The text is much better in this one than the previous entry of the same scene. A border of some sort would help make it look more "card-like", if you have the software to do that. If not, editing software should be high on your list of photography-related purchases. Photoshop is quite expensive, but Paint Shop Pro is more reasonably priced and quite the capable package. You can download it free for a trial period.
