Makeover

I’ll now interrupt the quilt series to interject a few more LiveWriter features.  This photo of a throw pillow volunteered to submit to a makeover:

The “adjust temperature” feature does just what it says.  Next is a completely “cool” photo (I moved the arrow all the way to the “cool” end).  Brrr….very fitting for January.

It's fun to 'play' with different effects, isn't it? That's a pretty pillow in all its various lights.
