I reccomend cloning new eyeballs, just have them improved a bit first, and wait like 10-20 years before the tech is ready, 'till then, maybe contacts?

I'll give you a hint, if you don't like look with glasses you'll need to get a new pair. When you got a right kind glasses people won't even notice them it just seem so natural (and just for the record, I have had glasses since I was 14 (I'm 22 now) and had very poor self esteem back then.)
Actually, I'm seriously considering the laser eye surgery option instead (one of my new year resolutions). I hate wearing glasses period. Too much trouble. Contact lenses are even worse.

I new picture I plan to have fun with:

Nothing particularily interesting about this picture. The only note being, I sent it to my brother who has some good graphical skills. I asked him to play around with it, make the eyes red, "evilize" the image as I put it. So keep your eyes peeled for the edited version (for those who care :P)

Good editing on the photo. Not sure, though, whether it was a good move to sharpen it that much :? Your left ear got "pixelated", and your hair's blurry... Though a hood and your face darkened would resolve it 8) , very nice touch darkening the photo overall and getting your eyes red.

I think I need to make the head a bit smaller, but overall I was happy with it.

Listen, once we all realize I'm AWESOME the world (or just the board) will be a better place.

Actually, your edit there is just a basic copy and paste edit, although really well done. You want to blow us all away? Make my face look like Maul's. :P

Actually, I have a question about your editing of the photo, xBlackFlash. His neck, is it part of the copy-paste or did you reddened it? I can't tell which...
Oh well, now to go back to watch Elheru's self-portrait and wonder whether he's bored or thinking over about something...

It was reddened already, from the edit my brother did.

It wasn't that much reddened. It's the same red-tone than the one used in the face which I'm asking about. I'm just curious whether it's a part of the new layer or if she coloured the neck. If the latter, then my congrats on getting a perfect match *Thumb up*

I reddened it, but it really isnt hard. I used photoshop, and once you have a certain bit selected (in this case his neck) you can adjust the color balance, so its only a matter of moving a slider and eyeballing the color for a match.

I can't resist a challenge. I'm working on that now. Look for it sometime either later today or tonight.

:shock: Pointless to ask whether you realize that the choice for the neck's red matches completely the red in the face, right?
Maybe not hard for you, but for a layman like me :wink: ...
