| Hi Daryl Have you thought about incorporating some of the texture from your wife's lovely dress and your shirt and tie into the pattern? It would break up the plain black areas that constitute your bodies. It might also be worthwhile running another check for floaters. Gill

 But yes, I would probably go with just a thin streak, here and there, for the pepper, but leave more wood for the salt. The outline of the hair could just be hints in the edges. The time I made a pattern for a young girl with blonde hair, I went to Kerry's website and looked for something similar, to see how he accomplished it. It gave me some good ideas, which really aided me in getting the look it needed. Light hair has to be one of the toughest hurdles, besides the eyes. Kerry has a lot of good before and after pictures on his site, and they're really worth looking at and referring to occasionally. And he doesn't mind us peeking.  | |

| Dayrl: I would try making it a grayscale then you can choose the area's that you want to leave more wood showing. Don't know if you have a program that you can do this with. Wish I could get images to load I'd show you what i did with a picture of my folks. Scott |
