Hi nailwiz,
could you have a little go at making the dog and see how far it gets you and then post the picture and I'm sure Kevin and everyone else will make suggestions if you do get a little stuck.

Hi there,

Yes, as Graham says, have a go and see how you get on .....you may surprise yourself  :D

This picture of an earlier one I made may help more. The body is a 3 bubble roll through, with 2 pinch twists at the front for shoulders, and 2 at the back for his bum.

(Oooopps......Sorry Graham, are we allowed to say bum here  :oops:  :oops:  :oops:  )
Kind regards
Kevin

Loving the poodle look. It is funny how we all see things differently though. I never put whiskers on dogs because I feel it makes them look less doggy. I tend to use whiskers only for mice, cats and rabbits. Go figure!

It's Lynn again, I forgot to say when I uploaded my pictures that, bcuz of not getting
diagnosed with "Lyme Disease" for so long it became "Chronic" and with that cause me
to loose mt "Short Term Memory".  That is why I ask for instructions bcuse if I am not
getting challenged or have an order or delivery to do, I watch my DVD's and tutorials
all day long...just procrastinating.  Sorry this is so long guys!!  :)  ;)

Sorry this is delayed~!!!  I had some health issues.
Ok, Graham & Phoenix here is my take on the Poddle, what do you think?
Thank you so much for challenging me.  I have a brain issue because of
Chronic Lyme Disease and the brain issue is affecting my creative side of
my brain.  THANK YOU both! Cheers!!  Lynn

Help...Why did my pictures go sideways?

I'm guessing you posted from an ipad? I think Stuart explained somewhere about this, it's to do with the way you took the picture, horizontal/vertical.
I tried and one way they posted the right way and the other sideways but I cant remember what did what now.

The other thing is you have to resize and save and then post but that all makes things more difficult.

I will try to speak to the tech guy for the forum and see if he can add something to automatically sort this out for us.

If it is from an iPad, the fix I have found (and I do this for all photos I post on here) is to go to edit the photo. Rotate it 90 degrees and save. Then edit it again rotating it back to being upright (270 degrees) and save again. Essentially you have rotated it a full circle in two moves. It is now the same way up as you started but for some reason they will then load on here the right way up!!!

Hi, no it was sent from my Laptop.  Not techie "AT ALL" just
to let you know.  This is what I did...uploaded my pics to my
desktop and then added the files to be posted.  So if someone could
explain to me and I will fix everything up.

Cheers!! Lynn Keller :o  :roll:
