I should try this fish with that blue texture I used with the doll.......

Very, very cool. You're officially an artiste! ;)
Thanks. :-)
I am working to get to a point where I feel like I have part of a clue what may happen when I try to combine different images.
So far I am thinking I like it best when one is a picture and the other is a texture.
But I have no idea which blending modes are going to be interesting with which pairs.
Mostly they all are ... boring.
:-)
There are about 25 different blending modes.
I suppose it might ;-) help if I went and read the documentation on the different blending modes, to see what the creators' intent for them is.....
Perhaps one day i'll do that.
No, I don't think they are boring. :)
How fun these are. I love them.
J, I didn't express myself clearly.
:-)
When trying all 25 (or however many) blending modes with a pair of images, nearly all blends were boring. :-)
I only showed you the ones that I thought were NOT boring.
:-)
Thanks, JB. :-)
My goal is to learn enough that I have a clue what may be interesting.
Trying all 25 (or however many there are) blending modes, just to see if anything is interesting................
Inefficient, at best........... :-)
I really should go back and read about what the intent of the programmers was, with the different modes, rather than trying eveyrthing at random.....................
Some day.......................................
