Hi all,

   I haven't really been active on this new site due to being way too busy but I've just found a brand new freeware program that will convert your digital photos into arty drawing or paintings. I know that most photo manipulation programs will already do this but they usually cost money & are sometimes a bit too fiddily to use for the begginer, but this is a stand alone program that is dead simple to use with very impressive results.

       Ok the program is called  'FotoSketcher v1.9' & you can download it from their website here:

Sorry if the link is not clickable but I'm not quite sure of  how to do it on here & I couldn't be bothered to work it out. I've added an example photo on my profile if you want to see what it is like.

have fun & all the best,
