This post’s title mentions a color I profoundly dislike---peach---which unfortunately is found skulking in a quilt we inherited by unlucky chance:
My apologies to brown and off-white, but to wretched peach I say, “Scram! You just don’t blend well with the color schemes in our farmhouse. You are dreadfully outdated or something.”
When we moved here in the mid-1980’s the kitchen walls were painted icky peach and you can bet your bottom dollar I rapidly remedied that. Here’s the deal: I despise the color peach whether its outdated or indated. Therefore---poof---I’ll use the incredible photo-shrinking feature in LiveWriter to resize this annoying peachiness, etal, to oblivion where it deserves to be:
I’ll obliterate its loathsome look by utilizing the “emboss” feature:
And, label the villian via the “watermark” feature within an “instant photo” border:
Imprison the peachy infiltrate within a “solid,3 pixels” fortress:
And, stash the unsightly thing away bound up in a boundary of “photopaper” :
Yes, ‘tis true that peach is not my favorite color, though certainly I am able to appreciate the time and effort that someone put forth to create this quilt.
The purpose of this tirade of nonsense was mostly to show you more of LiveWriter’s features. You can also alter a photo’s contrast and sharpness, crop or rotate your photo, give your photo a reflection, convert your photo to black & white or sepia-tone, “color pop” your photo, adjust your photo’s temperature (maybe I’ll demonstrate that in my next post), or give your photo a “gaussian blur”---something which as yet makes no sense to me. All that from a free download of Windows LiveWriter and I’m not even using the latest version.

Wow! You've got a lot of bloggy tricks in your bag. You don't like peach? I understand. I tolerate blue, but just; depends upon the shade. Navy is OK, but I try to limit my exposure.
Hope you're having a great day! ~xo
I am not a fan of peach either! I was in a friends wedding back in the early 90's and the wedding colors were blue and yep you guessed it, peach!I was three months pregnant at the time and the peach color just made me sick!!!
I have a "to do" list a mile long for today, but on it is finding the LiveWriter site and checking it out. It really does sound fun!
Happy weekend to you! =)
Peachy keen!!! (The devil made me do it...)
