Ah, don't think Lady Di was the culprit. I think it may have been using the plus sign in the title. Here let me check. Nope. Not having a + in the file name as well as in the picture. The one I did went through okay. Well, MacPloos, it's no matter. It worked in the end.

Nice work by the way.

PS: I noticed mine says "Attached Images" while yours says "Attached Thumbnails". Wonder how you're posting attachments and why they would be called thumbnails. Very curious that.

You cannot post a .psd, I don't believe. You have to export it as a .jpg or some format that this here forum can eat. Ye must change greasy gristle for the corn of the flake, to make an obscure reference just so I have to make you sort through a few things to get to the heart of the problem.

[Enug]

Hi Mr Ploos, I don't know why copies of your paintings are appearing and staying on your desktop screen. Perhaps they are being saved there instead of the folder where you usually keep them. (You may have saved something to your Desktop at some point and they are continuing to be saved there).Check the file destination at the top like where I have Paintings highlighted.

If you Right clicked only a copy was sent to your document folder and the original stayed on your screen. Check if it is there in your document folder and if it is you can do the same with the others and then delete them from your Desktop screen. I hope that helps.:):)

Don't forget - check where you are saving the painting files.

PoseDrawSki sez: Allo, allo, allo, what's all this 'ere then? I like your mustachioed fellow especially since he hasn't aged in centuries. Anyway, he tried his hand at portraiture himself. Even got Raquel Welch to pose for him. How do you like his interpretation of the hot babe? Between his longevity and his ability to get the babes, I think his talisman is in his twirled upper lip ornament. Order us some wax and we'll be riding high on the Ploos Boos.

Good job these last few. Handy work. Nice shapes and all. Also the young lad looks very charming. At first I thought it was "The Boss" that you painted as a baby -- him being the baby, not yourself.

Yeah, you should be feeling good about these. Bet you're getting some regular sleep finally. Easing up on the pain in the legs I reckon. Hope so.

[D Akey]

Your drawings as ever are good. As to color, it's a little bumpy, as if you're going through the surface of the painting one bit at a time rather than looking at the overall areas where the colors and values are shared or closely related. Kind of interesting. A very active bit of contrast is in and around the spots -- between the color and the white of the paper. It's not bad. Just distinctive as a result of the paint process you've come to using. Cool.

[eighty+]

Thanks. Capt'n Mac sorry been sleeping in my barrel On my trip in Rome so haven't done much on the girl with rose'es

hi I've been looking how to turn the painting back but so far no joy:D:D

but I've found how to turn the Wacom lengthwise and have the brush's
on the bottom left and the colour wheel on the right which would have
Helped me when painting the Golden Stairs ok all I had to do was
To click Ctrl and Alt and a arrow any of the four to. turn the screen where you want it. ok so I shouldn't have that problem. in the

Future ok the smash sketch was just to see if I had got it right ok

A painting for the punters!!!! Cool!!!!!!

The George Bellows one, (boxers), seems like kick boxing. He really exaggerated the poses beyond the restrictions of the traditional boxing match -- for dramatic effect no doubt. But it takes on the look stuff you'd see in the cage on tele these days.

Good action, MacPloos. Interesting how you have pushed the contrast way up of late. Interesting.

Go man go!!!!

[eighty+]

HI Capt'n Mac thanks for. George Bellows I think I got on to him through Robert Henri interesting comment about the
Contrast as I've got two pictures the Wacom and the Fujitsu laptop that shows the darker contrasting you lose some of the crowd in the Boxing scene and enhance the Boxers which I quiet like, normally I only I've got the Wacom to view but when doing the golden stairs I turned the Wacom to get more length I think that's when found out of the Fn+F10
Switch that's when I got the upside down pictures ok since then I've turned the Wacom back lengthwise ok
