Really cool shampoo AnMal! Gets our hair squeaky clean!

Had to try my hand at a bar of soap. Used a bar of Ivory in a search, used smart remove to get rid of the Ivory logo and colorized it. Used GnuTux's GC-Shadow script on the logo.

Nice idea but for me it looks more like a pink plastic box with holes showing a pink soap inside with a couple of millimeters of space in between. The letter hollows are much too sharp for soap(*) and the inner shadows are too strong. They also conflict a bit with the light reflection on the top, that comes from a frontal and high lighting while the shadows imply a quite lower side lighting. The 'C' is also partly on a part that is round...

And the reflection nazi in me says that the baseline of the letters in the reflection should be parallel to the one in the direct image :)

(*) On the top of the bar you have a natural example of what the edges should look like.

May I change the fragrance to violet-scented? My mother wore a cologne that smelled like violets. It was called April Violets by Yardley and the scent of violets is one of my favorites. Yardley no longer makes the cologne.

I don't mean African violets, I mean the kind that grow outside and in the spring when the sun hits them, you can smell them for quite a distance. They have heart-shaped leaves. Unfortunately, they don't grow where I live now.

You can set the sent you desire for your GC Soap in your Gimp preferences. :hehe
