The Can could be Cleaned up a little looks a little LQ to me, and the kid could be too, or you could lower the Quality on that Amazing Water.
Love it :D
Maybe add some Lighting in there.

And Tutorial on Water Please :D

Greetings and :welcome to Gimpchat!!

You should be able to use images from 3rd party image repositories as long as those images are publicly viewable and the website does not have embedding blocked. We encourage members to upload their images directly to Gimpchat.

On a side note, signature images are limited to 500x150 pixels.

I never liked Flickr, I recommend ImageShack, or you can post them on deviantART. However you haft to make an account, and they'll be posted there, it's a great site for artists.

Deviant Also doesn't enjoy Flash Floods, such as when you are updating a sig just about Hourly or Every 2 Hours, like what seems to happen to me a lot.

I would get the ImageShack program, love it, use it almost daily.

I am a die hard Flickr-ite. You really have to go with whatever you are comfortable with.

Thank you people for all your constructive advice. Really what I was hoping for.

For the water effect, I used the water brush sets here, and used iwarp, cloning, smudging, mostly.

Stay well.

I use Photobucket for several years and like it pretty well. I've only used ImageShack to upload things I didn't want in my Photobucket account since you don't have to have an account for it. tinypic.com is also a good upload site you don't have to register with, but I know a few people who can't see tinypic images, and for that reason I don't use it, so something to consider.

Have never used Flickr and the few times I click links to view images there, I feel vaguely "ugh". I'm not sure why...

I also use Photobucket, and have no problems with it. I used Flikr until I came to the free limit of 200 pics.

I didn't know Flickr had a limit.
Image Shack doesn't seem to have one, and their free image up-loader is very handy. :)

free flickr has a limit, or did anyway. It was a mere 200 pics and I just don't want to pay for a membership for unlimited storage.
