Jan you really did a great job with the new Steph, and I loved the playful scene you created.

Fantastic work!!!!!

Very nice & funny looking image, very well done dear Jan!!! Wish you a nice new week, hug’s Ute

Thanks, all! Of course, I would NEVER do an image about an animal getting harmed...that would be awful! So I'm glad you all understand that Mr. Birdie is still alive, playing happily in the attic. And Odo the Cat is totally bewildered because he's not the guilty party. Magnus, I LOVE the new Stephanie! :-) I've been fiddling with her till all hours of the night, since she was released. I think she's going to make this 3D world a WHOLE lot more interesting! Thanks for your comment. NitraLing, thank you very much. :-) I appreciate that!!! Hi, dear Ute. I am planning a dedication for you but it has to be exactly right! Just the right image for Ute, Big Smile. I'm glad you like this one though. And I'm really happy that you all are looking at it as a joke. I was afraid someone might think I was being cruel to animals...never! If Mr. Birdie was really gone, I'd have cried -- even though he's fictional. :-))) Hugs to all! Jan

Hi, Marcia...this is getting to be fun! I'm beginning to understand your comments without the translator, for the most part! :-) Thank you for teaching me Portugese. :-) "Marvelous"...thanks! "Good imagination." I think my imagination got twisted when I was born. Either that or my mother dropped me on my head. ;-) "Pretty lady." I think the new Stephanie characters are pretty, too! "Excellent pose and expression, splendid composition, good story?" Thank you very much! :-) I appreciate your comments a lot, Marcia. Hugs! Jan Google translation: Oi, Marcia ... isto está começando a ser divertido! Eu estou começando a entender os seus comentários sem que o tradutor, a maior parte! :-) Obrigado por me ensinar Português. :-) "Maravilhoso" ... obrigado! "Boa imaginação." Eu acho que a minha imaginação tem torcida quando eu nasci. Ou isso, ou minha mãe me deixou cair na minha cabeça. ;-) "Moça bonita". Acho que os novos personagens Stephanie são muito, muito! "Excelente pose e expressão, composição excelente, boa história?" Thank you very much! :-) Eu aprecio os seus comentários muito, Marcia. Abraços! Jan Thanks, Macho Man! :-) Mr. Birdie flew safely back to his cage and Odo the Cat is out of disgrace. His feelings are hurt though. He's devastated that Astrid would even think he snitched the birdy. Mr. Birdie, on the other hand, is a bit gleeful. He stirred up mischief, which he loves to do. You should see Astrid's attic! She will be screeching when she gets a gander at the mess up there! :-) Thank you for the comment on my goofy picture. I had fun doing it though. I like one aspect of Steampunk. You can put totally unbelievable items in a picture and get away with it! :-))) Like the jeweled cat... Good morning, everyone! :-) Jan
