I would love to join this side challenge, but am new and don't know how it works. Could someone please enlighten me.
Just upload your photos to your portfolio. I'm assuming May 1st someone will start a posting thread, and you just post your thumbnails to that thread. Some people will try to post one a day, but lots of people post at their leisure.
In side challenges, try to comment when you can as well. Its a good way to get critiques for your photos.

I gave it a shot... hope you don't mind. Here is what I got:
This is what I love about overlays. You could give the same images out to a bunch of people and you'd get a whole lot of different results. Check here for an explanation of blending modes. I usually start w/ multiply (goes darker) then screen (lighter) then overlay (a combo of the two).
I also copied my layers in the details of the image. If you want a different explanation PM me.

Tom thats looks great ..thats what i was trying to achive
anyone taking/making there own overlays for the month, i know a bunch of people buy or use free overlays but for me i like to take/make my own for the feeling that its all my work and no aditives from another. i also think its pretty fun just to go out find intristing things to use.

I'm not really that much of a purist (texture snob?? 8)), but I like to make my own overlays, because when we go overboard on using the same textures and overlays, everything starts looking the same. Figures!D
Don't forget, you can get some pretty cool textures by making your own brushes and using them selectively.

Its spreading like a virus I entered a challenge too....my first in in a year!
If you want a good resource, www.imageafter.com has a bunch of stuff. A lot of it is garbage, but its a large catalog, so there is a ton of stuff worth using as well.
Can I join in here too please. I think I said I would when you put the question in Unconventional, but I missed the point of finding the right thread to join in.
