I take that you desaturated and "hand coloured" the subject. Well done and great depth of field in the image but on my monitor, at least, it appears to need a little touch with Levels (Levels or Histogram in PSP) or curves to give it a little bite. Good effort though. What version of Paintshop Pro are you using?

Yes Darryl, Corel bought it lock, stock & barrel from JASC. A very good (and MUCH cheaper) alternative to Photoshop. There are many PSP tutorial sites on the web. Sus 'em out.

if PSP can do layers like photoshop.. I think duplicating layer the layer and then changinng it to "overlay", 60% opacity would bring the texture of the post out even more.

apologies, but i'm not ofay with PSP.
