Garbanze, your #1 sample really looks like what we called 'Black Ice' up in the northwest. It iced up fast,coating the roads, also very hard to detect and extremely dangerous to drive on. I think you did a great job on this one. Really looks authentic smile;)

Oh what beautiful country... west of the mountains. Going east and you hit flatlands all the way out past Kansas.

Do you like it there better than the States? I know you mentioned it once because of the social attitudes, and I agreed with you on that... but what about the landscape, scenery and wildlife? Was it difficult to get use to?

Sorry for being so nosy smile;)

hey i don't mind!

i like many things better here, especially the social and political attitudes as i said before. but i really do miss the mountains, scenery, fresh air, wildlife, etc. i grew up in a little mountain town, and now i live in a big city. huge change. i've only been here a few months, but before budapest i lived in london for several years. and i'm still not used to it! but hopefully we'll be building a house out past the the city in a year or so, then i will get back to nature a bit, have a garden, etc.

anyway if i really need to get my 'mountain' fix, i can just head to austria and hike in the alps, or go over to romania and explore the carpathians!

I like preset #1, would make a good default in my opinion

Now that's an interesting combination... who's the guy?
Like I said... I'm nosy, hehe.

Well I'm glad you are happy, that's what counts after all. The mountains in Austria are so rough and rugged, yet the Rockies still hold some sort of charm for me, as do the Cascade Range where I grew up smile;)

Have you thought of hiking through New Zealand? There are places there that they still haven't been able to descend and explore between those craggy beasts!

And yes, do have a garden, that always brings something special that only nature tended by your own hands can bring to you!

No!! You're kidding... isn't there a way to go into your folder and retrieve it where you last saved, or something like that? I'm sure I saw one of the guys ask this question once and got an answer something like that.

Oh I hope you can get it back. This really is one of the more realistic ice filters I've seen and would have liked to have made some fonts with it smile:(
