Black edges do make the point of focus more definite. If it is then I thank you for your most generous suggestion. Thomz p.s. It appears the picture was lost in the digital cyberspace...so I'll try it again Title: Re: A picture made with Bibs suggestion Post by: DarkBeam on February 19, 2012, 10:26:38 AM Do not modify the php tags or they don't work

I was just suggesting that the intermediate colors when doing a green to pink gradient are not necessarily beautiful, so you can insert some black in the middle, see a quick and dirty example in attachment. But it's really a matter of personal taste!
