My inernet service crashed last night, so I was not able to get back on until now.

Thank you all for your help and suggestion. I'm her Mom so of course I thinks she's pretty, but I'll have to let her see the comments so she hears that from others. At sixteen most teenage girls can only find their faults. She has had several boys tell her that they would date her if she did not have red hair. Lucky for me she told them that they were stupid jerks. Go away and grow up. She's got a lot of that red hair spirit, much like MWAC has....and okay I'm a red head too.

I like several of them, I do agree that freckles are part of a redhead, but you can lessen them. i see that y'all took out the blemishes and soften the shadows a bit, like it all.

I like the opening of the eyes, but what about the lips, can anyone smooth them out a bit and add a touch of gloss? Maybe make them not look so dry? That's something that stands out, I wish she had had lip gloss on at the time of the picture.

Thank you all very much again, I'm going to let her pick out the things she likes in each photo.

gloss isn't that hard to do ... first make a selection of just the lips then make a new layer out of it
go to filters menu and choose artistic and plastic wrap
play with the sliders until it looks how u want it to look
then you can adjust the hue and saturation if necessary and make the blending option overlay
That's really all there is to it.

thanks I'm going to give it a try.

that's after college...hopefuly
