There is a tutorial in the November Issue of Digital Photo showing how to make a folded look with a photo. It is complete with background texture and folded template. Just for grins I used this photo of the prison in Fort Madison, Iowa. I was amazed how the creases turned out to look like cell bars.

On an unrelated note, is it merely coincidental that Skitzo (palral) showed up at this time after a long hiatus?

Richie's right, TicK. At my parole hearing Dorothy got into a fist fight with Sky and Penny. Roger was there but just watched in bemused silence.

This must be an old shot. On the right side, you can see the antenna that I used to contact Wendell on Uranus. They took it down after the big lightening storm last year.

Interesting technique. As you know, I have the uncreased original hanging over the mantel in my bunker. Ahhhh....those were the daze.

That looks very good Tick except of course that you put it where the sky should be. The folds do look like bars. Nice effects.

Interesting Technique, Tick... I like it! I think Most people Would have crumpled it Into a Ball, though... and Then flattened it Out! Only a Lifer would Have shown Enough loving care to Fold... Unless, of Course, they Couldn't resist those Old laundry Room urges!!

...and I, for One, am Elated to see Our old Palral Roger back!!

This looks great, Tick. The folds do appear to be bars . Very creative and excellent work.

I wonder why this Picture was folded and kept in somones pocket or handbag? Did they have a relative or someone they know there or...? It does raise a lot of questions. :-).
I like your work on this one. Very well done.

Skitzos are unpredictable, so who knows! This is a great looking image with your folded look and the window panes. That's a fort? Looks like an English Castle from yon days of olde!

Nice work Tick. The effect works really well on this shot.

You also began a nice bit of humourous banter to lighten the mood :)

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
