I was bored!

I was bored and took some pictures of the kids. These shots didn't turn out like I planned, so I doctored them in the "comic life" program on my Mac. It's the colored pencil effect. I think they turned out pretty cool!!

COOL!!!
I thought it might be the "watercolor" filter in photoshop....but didn't quite look the same.
Great job!

Those ARE cool! Like a doodle cartoon!

Very cool. We have a mac too and I haven't even played with that feature. I think you have enough shenanigans at your house to put together a whole Doodle comic strip!

I have learned to BRACE MYSELF when I see a topic where gene announces that he is bored.......

I like the effects gene - cool!

**lindamarie** · 06-27-2008, 12:43 PM

Those are GREAT!! Did you do that from your editing part of your camera or is there a website?

It's a program that came with my Mac Mini, called Comic Life. It does all sorts of weird effects. It has a "pop art" feature that makes it look like a Lichtenstein print. Unfortunately with mostly black doodles.....it looks like a blob!

Very cute pics.
