I thought it best to actually log in for the first time in a while last night, and I did so to find that Removing Purple Fringing was featured last week (I think) as a daily deviation many thanks to =Zaichick for suggesting it, and ^thespook for choosing it!

I'm sorry I don't have time to reply to all of the comments that have appeared on that and other images since I've been away for a few months. Reading the comments from the fringing tutorial, I have these things to say:

i) Thank you
ii) I have no idea why it got picked as a DD either - it's something I did when I got bored. Please don't be bitter because something happened that's out of my control!
iii) I'm glad it helped some of you. I didn't know about the method until not long before I wrote the tutorial.

Also, I finally reached 10,000 pageviews. I know for some of you this happened long ago and at a much more rapid rate (ahem, Kristi, ahem ) but I'm proud of it. It's testament to my hard work on here over the years and the support I've received from the community over that time. Thank you all very much.

As for reappearing on here, I have photos left from Canada, as well as some recent ones both from Athens and from Cornwall. Hopefully I can get a few of those added onto here in the not-so-distant future. I am, however, starting uni again in not too long, so things might be a bit slow until I get settled down.

Personally though I just had to get ill when I was down in sunny Cornwall, didn't I? Two of the days I woke up feeling like death incarnate. Since then I've just had an annoying cough and a bungy nose. Oh well. I hope it's not an omen for another winter of discontent. Well, health-wise discontent anyway.

In other news, it's international talk like a pirate day in three days. Yarrrrrr.

Edit: I've also just looked through all of the favourites from this page - there were too many to thank individually, but to all of you, THANK YOU! I'm glad you liked my work enough to mark it as one of the best in your opinion.
