Apophysism ps6 and common asian fabric motif for background

I wanted to post this new years, but unfortately my computer blew up on me in 11/24, just got my new motherboard today and hopefully it will work out.

I tried hard to find a decent new years image and this asian parade lion like spiral popped up. The lion dance possesses mystical properties through its colors: When paired with the five colors (yellow, black, green, red and white) as the costume is colored, it is said to have control over the five cardinal directions. The forehead, adorned with a mirrors to deflect evil forces. The lion walks back and forth, in a zigzag path, in order to confuse evil spirits, which the Chinese believe move in straight lines. Its image bring hopes of wealth and goood fortune, cure sickness, bless marriages and guard against misfortune. We alll can't go to wonderful places of blessing. So in the spirit of thought I offer you this fractal blessing for the late new years.

It always surpises me what people like. I had some mixed reviews on that on, but I defintely liked how it turned out. My next style with fractals I will be using peoples faces as masks and then try to create fractal china like dolls, people of various spiritaul classes on other worlds type thing. I currently using yahoo msg primarly because it has the best over the internet voice to voice fucntion. I am at tshansen777_73 and can be hard to get a hold of. In the mean time, what happend, i did a little searching and a saw all kinds of people being nasty, threaten of bannings and all kinds of weird stuff. Send it to me in private tell. Tell me something you like to talk about to, so I wont be so boring when we chat.
