Mornin Sunshine! Wow! These are fab! I can't help with song titles, cause I'm terrible at remembering them, but I love seeing your work! I have a degree in photography, but it was all manual and I have no clue how to work photoshop. But your stuffs shiny!

Why thank you, Deb 
In a way I'm surprised that a degree in photography wouldn't include anything digital. Did they ever mention digital photography or photo manipulation?
Have you ever posted any of your photos?
If you think of any lyrics or titles, lemme know.

Nope, no digital. This was '89 or so. Haven't got any of my college work scanned, do have a few pieces framed. I had to create a class to get my final credit, so I merged printmaking(intaglio) with photography. It was an interesting mix.
Sor far I recently got a cheap knockoff of photoshop, but all I've done is use filters to alter some of my recent pics. Haven't uploaded them to photobucket yet. Photobucket won't let me upload them as they are psf files?

What kind of program do you have? I really recomend just messing with all the tools to see what they do; remember, you don't have to save the changes, and the beauty of computer work is the "undo" option 
As for saving, there should be a drop-down menu that lets you save as a jpg or similar. If it's really anything like PhotoShop, there should even be a "save for web" option.
PSF files are a pain. Their only function is to save the layers, which you probably aren't even using. Nothing else can open them, and they can't be printed or uploaded. But they are useful for their purpose.

It's arcsoft photoimpression 5, I'm trying to bring it up now.* nope, couldn't find any menu that would let me change format. Just lets me print or email. Tutorial said I could upload to a photo hosting site, but apparently not my version.

Doomdoom doom doom doom doom doomdoomdoomdoom...
Heeheehee 
Interesting suggestions. I'll try a few of those; though I did try to make Black Balloon at one point and could not come up with anything. And actually Stairway to Heaven has been done, several times, by other people, so I'd feel like a copycat if I did it.
I must ponder these others... 
Never tried U2, that might be interesting. I always liked the Eurythmics, could be I'll get a vision from one of their songs. Hm hm hm hm
Thanks!

Your very welcome. I tried to think of songs that had a lot of imagery in them. Can't wait to see what you come up with!
Edit: Oh and by the way, what is the address for your photobucket account? I would like to see some of the other work you've done.

Hopefully I do come up with something...
Well, most of what I've done is up. Here's the address of the one I didn't post due to size: _http://s63.photobucket.com/albums/h121/PhoenixRoseStar/?action=view¤t=EyeoftheHurricane.jpg
It doesn't make a whole lot of sense if you don't know the song, but it's still a pretty cool image. I've done a few other little practice images in photoshop, too; maybe I'll post those at some point. Mostly, it was seeing what I could convincingly light on fire, but there are a few others. I think. Heh, I think I have a Darth Ratzinger image somewhere or other; don't know how many people that would end up offending, though.
Oh, dear, I need to go to sleep.
