With Tina's Picstory challenge this week "self portrait"...I went out online and searched for a caricature program that I could have some fun with this time 'round. I took an old profile avatar of mine from Blogger and then after installing the free software [after scanning for viruses] --and played a little bit. Here is what I came up with...
...kinda like a smiling, half witted troll don't you think? I can just 'picture' myself as an extra on the set of an upcoming episode of GRIMM in the near future? I would like to befriend Detective Nick Burkhardt [<--link; isn't he a hunk?] any ol' time!!!! Of course, Detective Burkhardt would save the day for me since I'm a GOOD troll instead of a mean one that he'd have to shoot. Maybe Monroe could convince him!!! The software download, free, is found here. If you choose to 'play with it some'....don't forget to check it with a virus scan first. I don't want to be associated as one who directs you there and then screw up with your hard drive!!! 'kay?!!!
...and as I remain hidden under the 'troll' bridge, away from view, I use my magical powers and create just a bit of sunlight through the misty Oregon forest to show you the way ---
