It’s been a good news, bad news kind of day. Good news–I have an appointment to get my hair cut and colored, brows waxed, etc. Bad news is I couldn’t get in until Sept. 27. I’ve already had to resort to trimming my bangs–when they start poking you in your eyes, you gotta do something.
Bad news is I haven’t been able to upload or access previously uploaded photos at BeFunky, one of my favorite online photo editing sites since yesterday. Grrr. Still working on this problem. Many products of my visits there end up on this blog *sigh*.
Good news is I discovered yet another site I had not visited before. Cool!
The site is Pixlr and it offers three options for users: The super-easy Pixlr-O-Matic, the efficient intermediate level Pixlr Express and their advanced program, which is set up in a similar fashion to Photoshop Elements. Here are some examples of what you can do in image editing at the Pixlr site. Yes, I am still on a Thorin kick. *guh* Maybe it’s having hair on my mind. . .
Cropped from pic of Thorin with his nephews, then reversed, used quad creative effect and added text. Done in Pixlr Express.
Using Pixlr-O-Matic, the original image was cropped, color adjusted, retro overlay and border added.
Pixlr Express was used to add the glamour effect, then a retro text and a default basic border. Gee, did you ever think a 200-plus-year-old dwarf would possess such allure?
Another example from Pixlr Express.
Pixr-O-Matic allows you to make these collage-type photos with a single click. The better to focus on braids, beards, dwarven ears and so forth.
Pixlr Express was used to crop, reverse, add and adjust focus blur, add an overlay, insert crown sticker and text.








I think Thorin must have discovered the Elixir of Youth! He doesn’t look a day older than 199! Only joking! Artwork as gorgeous as ever, Angie!
Like the CReAtor, Thorin appears to be aging like —the finest dwarven–ale??
He’s just a total babe. He really is.
You are having fun, aren’t you? Even if the news is mixed, these are glorious.
Yeah, I didn’t feel so hot when I woke up this morning and then had a few impediments–but this has been therapeutic. And I can share the results!
Glamour Dwarf Thorin is really doing a number on my heart!! I think I may have passed out there for a moment!
I said to myself, “The fangurlz will REALLY like this one.” He just ooooozes charisma. *thud*
American girls call it charisma?
Charisma–”compelling attractiveness or charm that can inspire devotion in others.” Methinks Thorin and Mr. A have loads of charisma.
Thanks! so…he oozes charisma…does this phenomenon triggers the heat?;) I feel hot!
Oh, I think
MR. A has the potential to make us all very hot.
A reason for us all to carry fans…
Two posts full of Thorin…lucky I’m sitting down! He’s just so absolutely gorgeous…*sigh*
He is just so gorgeous. The more images I see of him, the more I fall for him . . . my gosh, but the magnetism RA expresses even in these still photos as RA. Imagine him in action on the big screen.
Could he look any more fabulous?? I seriously think I’ll have to be bound and gagged when I go to see TH – The Hobbit – but also seeing THORIN!!!
In spite of what others may say, I think that Richard is THE hot dwarf. Fili and Kili are just kinda cute lads to me while Thorin is the MAN!
Kili and Fili are cuties and I am sure will have plenty of fans—but the numero uno is definitely Uncle Thorin. Those photos of him just scream mature, masculine beauty, sex appeal and tons of charisma. What he can do with those eyes.
I know what they do to me!!! *thud*
Right there with you, Teuchter.
