I'm quite liking my new Photoshop actions

So much easier to just press a button and edit one or two layers.... :blushing:

I like it very much, and any person whose skin is no longer that young will love your treatment. I am sure! So maybe you will check on flights from Málaga to Hamburg or so and come over for the Germany Meet-Up in May, take my photo, and give my face a similar treatment? The meet-up should give you ample opportunity to take photos!

So? What do you say?

Nice portrait, I really like the sepia tone on it.

Hmmm... sounds nice

The treatment was mainly from the Totaly Rad! action set, with a couple of personal edits (mainly lower opacity of the layers the Totaly Rad! action set created).
I just brought this photo to the local photography store to get it on a 20x30 print... added a bit more contrast to the photo for the print... I'm curious what my grandmother will think about it, its a little b-day present since I haven't found anything better so far

PS: Meet-up sounds like fun, but with exams starting in June for me its not such a good idea =(... besides that I've already traveled too much this year... been to Holland last summer & Christmas and flying to Barcelona in 3 weeks...
I was supposedly saving that money for a 40D
