AlexGKeymasterAll very gamma-bab-o-licious Sir Rowan! So many Danielles, so little time . . . 😎
I created the gamma flames with PSP's Tubes feature, then shifted the coloration from red-yellow-orange to green.

AlexGKeymasterThis was one of my favorite John Byrne FF/She-Hulk stories. (The guy on the cover looks like Stan Lee without the mustache… wonder if that was intentional?)
From what I've read posted by others on the subject I gather the answer is yes. Whatever the reason, it was his way of getting back at Stan Lee by portraying him as a Hugh Hefner-type personality.

AlexGKeymasterThank you for the complements, glad you that enjoyed them.
I am a bit of a beginner with PSP, but it sounds as tho' the method you use is VERY VERY complicated and involved.
Its not really complicated, but certainly can be time consuming and one does need to be patient with the process. I just prefer to have as seamless an illusion as possible. In the area of Gammazon collages I was strongly influenced by Unzipped and the level of perfection that he demonstrated with his works.

AlexGKeymasterI would love to do this, but I'm not sure what kind of Google search is needed. What terms will find me this?
I originally learned about them several years back in the news groups, the collectors of fitness centerfolds group, to be specific, they used the *.csv file in conjection with file sorting software that assessed their collections for any missing fills.
Been a long while now, but I took a shot in the dark with these terms:
*.csv, softwoods, collectors, alt.binaries.fitness.centerfolds
And Google came up with one site, interestingly enough, I recall this one – El Toro's
Hope this gives you a start in the right direction.

AlexGKeymasterYou mean as in a formal, public announcement in one of his posts? As far as I can recall he (or she) only posted his unfinished story on the ZZZ GTS Grows forums back around 1998 or so. To the best of my knowledge the only person I know of that managed somehow to get in contact with him (or her) was Hi-Standard. I only know this much because he told me so in private – the reason being that he wanted to continue the story Hiccups and did so under the pseudonym of Whoopsy's Stand-in.
(If you were around then, the accompanying salutation with each post was pure Hi-Standard – I almost wondered if he wanted someone to step up and ask, if it was him, but no one ever did.)
When this topic came up again a year or so back, I recounted this information to Fritzcat and he's included it in his Stories Reviewed column that can be found at giantess.com stickied at the top of the stories forum.

AlexGKeymasterTHANK YOU!!!
That's what I've seen. It always waxes and wanes….it picks up a bit during the holday season….gets kind of stagnant until March or April and flares up around May……
**a slight bow of the head in acknowledgement**
Indeed, you're most welcome, milady. 😎
Tis a good point. Normally I'd like to draw at least every two days (even if its not femuscle) but like reecently it's taken 3 days just to PENCIL a page of my comic.
I'm much of the same mind about writing, you try to get a little done each day – a paragraph or so, maybe a few lines of conversation of new material, but in time it adds up. Sometimes I prefer to re-read/polish/tweak older passages or even go over previous stories for any gaffes that I might have missed. To be certain their are moments when the cosmic tumblers click in place and you can have several pages flow out of you, but those are the exceptions, at least for me these days. 😎

AlexGKeymaster😡
apparently some one who I won't name has some negative comments once more and is declaring growth is in its death throws. I'm here to say that as long as I have access to a computer I'm not about to let the growth die. I'm going to keep on writing until the day when some one else out there decides to pick up the torch lit years ago and continue the work started by the greats of long ago.
_M.Ah, that again? **Sigh** Seems like about this time every year (for more then I care to admitting to remembering) there are some who declare as much. Jeeze, got news for 'em – it always drops down in intensity about now.
[Reality check – it's fall, those that have extra time in the summer to endulge in this slice of excapist fantasy – don't have it now. i.e. the people going to collage have all gone back to school and are busy with other tasks.]
As for a lack of places catering to this interest – aside from Amaz0ns (Your one stop femuscle shop – all praise the Mighty Lingster with mighty praise!), I can think of at least three – no, make that four other major sites that are active in the growth fantasty. 1) Oz's giantess.com 2) Mystic Krunk's giantess city 3) Pete's GTS Magic and 4) Asuka's Giantess Haven / Giantess Planet
BTW – if you're looking for a list of links (far too many to cite on my part) also catering to this interest, you can't do much better then going to Pete's Links List:

AlexGKeymasterLooks to me to be Cyndie Meintzer, too. 😎
Here's her gallery pages at WPW:
BTW – If you have the correct WPW file name, there are collected Excel .csv file lists of the various Softwoods photo sets – you'd have to run a Google search for the collectors' sites hosting them.

AlexGKeymasterOuch! Too hot to handle… 👿 I remember that you were using PSP for your artworks. Did you use it for these? And if that's the case how do you did it, did you use layers and masks?
Anyway, great work !! 😆Multiple Layering is a must, (I once had a real monster, one that ran into 30 layers / about 100 meg in file size) it's almost impossible to create a Gammazonian manipulation without that feature. Typically, the greatest amount of labor and time is wrapped up in getting a seamless cutout of the body, even more so then with GTS collage since some amount of a fudge factor is allowable. (The hair in and of it self is a plexing part of the process, sometimes you have to creat replacement portions with the Clone tool and/or Vector tool – windswept and loose strains can really be a bitch to fix – no pun.) After the primary cutting, you have to flip on and off the layer to find out where you might have missed some pixels, cut them out and merge them into the primary cutout. Also, I usually make the primary cutout as a copy of the original photo – reason being that after I shift the R/G/B color of the skin, sometimes layering it back over the original I reduce the Opacity by 5 to 10 percent to allow a faint bleed through from underneath to occur, it gives the green element just that touch of tannish normalcy to it. The eyes are an operation all in themselves – again, you have to go down to the pixel level to insure that you get it all – separating the irises from the white scleras – then radically adjust the Hue/Sat/Brightness for the glowing effect and then shift the R/G/B color to a greenish tint.
I've also done some ethereal Goddess collages, including one with Danielle – probably should post a few of them here. 😎

AlexGKeymasterIm specially curious about the background in the second one. did you do it yourself (color, luminosity and stuff)?
No, that background came from a photo CD database.
