Today, I am keeping it very simple.
If you haven't noticed the background has changed.
It took me a little while to get it to fit and it isn't EXACTLY what I wanted but it is a start.
Sometimes teaching yourself how to work all this stuff is the best way, yet in doing so you must live thru some mistakes, or Close to what "I" wanted.
This is the original picture I wanted in the background:
But of course the thing came out all tiled and mix matched and just did not look good at all.
So I played and stretched it only to be told that..... Well, it was to BIG!
I played around some more, shrunk it and added a few stars in the background, which gave me this:
That still didn't fit or work exactly so I had to cut part of the bottom out and a little from the back and this is what I got:
Notice the big Difference in the picture versus the original -- but still I got my Dragon as my Background picture.
Took many many tries to get it to this point and so it almost fit perfectly.
Practice makes perfect!
Since I am back and looks like "running" (here on the blog at least.... LOL) according to my usual self, I decided to put something New up in the background.
Oh, there is another change I have made recently but wont say anything about it for awhile as I want to make sure I am Back and Back for Good.
Hope You ALL have Had a Good Weekend
and Music Mondaze will be back Tomorrow - I Promise!
