I used PhotoImpression 4.0 because it loads all photos and has a split screen to which you can view your main project photo along with the other photo(s) that you can copy an image from and paste it back onto your main photo. Plus it converts any format to another format which allows me to use windows paint for quiker cutouts. Unfourtunatley WP can only edit the .BMP extensions...most websites require .jpeg extensions. A little of back and forth converting can allow someone to meld any photo with any photo. What started out as me browsing for a simple group band photo... I couldnt find a close enough shot that showed all four of us playing on stage in just one photo. I tried to paste two photos together from end to end but even the best match looked too crude and caused too much distraction taking away from the idea. So.. I took another photo of Tony jamming onstage; cutout, copied and pasted his cutout in his right place on the stage with the rest of the band. Things just took off from there. I got less than an hour in it but the project locked up before I could properly aligned all of the photo's for a final rendering. I can still add more people but that sucker wont let me move and realign any of the present faces anymore. I could always restart from scratch. |

Hey Bruce......I`ll be bringing my Marshall stack and Les Paul. I bought a Marshall 1936 2x12 cab about a month ago and that thing sounds as good, i think better, than those huge Marshall 4x12`s I usually use. It won`t take up nearly as much space as the usual half stack but it is just as loud and full sounding as the 4x12. I love it !!!!

I need some help from some of you guys. I've really got to start looking into plane tickets, hotel reservations, rental car, etc. for our trip to Nashville. We plan on arriving some time on the 14th, stay a few days and then we'd like to see a little bit of Nashville before we leave. We are going to rent a car when we're ready to leave the state and drive up to Ohio to visit my sister, it's only about an 8 hour drive from Nashville, according to Mapquest.
So, here's what I need to know:
What kind of things are a "must see" in Nashville? Craig has been there before but it was many years ago, he played "Tootsie's" for a few weeks, which is still there and pretty famous, so I guess we're going to that place for sure if we can get in.......he wants to see if his initials are still carved into the bar!  Don't know if that's something everybody does at this place or just something a drunk drummer did one night, not sure!! And I guess I'd like to see the Grand Ole Opry. So, what else do ya'll think we need to do and how many days in Nashville are we going to need to do it in?
Will there be some form of "taxi service" that can pick us up at the airport and get us to Bruce's? And then back and forth to the hotel? I don't even know how far it is so I just want to make sure it's not going to put anybody out. I would prefer that this car we're going to rent is only going to be for a couple of days to get us from Tenn to Ohio, with some other kind of sightseeing thrown in on the way, like the countryside, etc.
Since we're not flying home from Tenn. there would only be one trip to the airport to pick us up. I think Susan and Randy are the only other people from DSJ flying in, everyone else is driving, right?
How long do you guys plan on staying.....Proudbird, Jody, Woodjam??? We don't want to stay too long and wear out our welcome, nor do we want to miss anything either!
I guess that's all I can think of for now. I just need some guidelines and dates to work with. I have to also buy one way tickets home from Ohio, too. I'll probably ship Craig home after a couple of days and then stay about a week or so by myself and fly home alone. So, I have a lot to figure out and need to start working on it real soon.
Thanks for your help! ;D

We plan leave early friday morning hopefully before 9am. Add 6 hrs to destination puts us there around 3pm Friday afternoon give or take.
We plan to leave Tenn around noon or so Sunday.
We also know another couple that plans to attend and will follow us up there.
Wes & Missy
In that event, we may stay in thier camper trailer that they want to make use of. Consequently, that may also cause possible travel & traffic delays so we may not bring it at all.
Ive known Wes since we played "Farm League" baseball together back in the mid/late 70's.
"Farm League" was the age bracket before "Dixie Youth League"
Anybody still remember or use those old league names?
