While stalking katatonik for the limited edition Malice dress, I saw that there were some new dollarbies out, 6 yummy babydolls, legwarmer boots, and new colours for the gorgy plaid skirt that's been so popular. My daughter asked for dots on the background, so here they are! Also there was a note in the chat box about a freebie box from Old Gravy, I've shown 2 of the tops from there.
I got these yummy freebs from HLC, I can't remember how I came accross the LM in my inventory, it was just there this morn when I finished hunting for bunnehs at Silent Sparrow!! For these pics, I did the Ana signature pic with the gradient shtuffs. I have to say, I found it very hard not to frame them (yus frame obssesed is what I am!)
Also in the chatbox was a tip about a prize camp dress at Likka House. Mui posted about this store waaaay back in May, there are gorgeous doll dresses for ridiculously cheap! The Alice dress shown is 20l. Also, as dolls and Alice seem to have become popular, I made my best friend Kenlee make me a doll key, which she said I could pass on to the group. You can find it in the notice archives. I tried hard to resist, but the frames called to me!! The background for the Alice dress, my daughter chose again, her colour de jour being pink!!

waaaa, you look so awesome! those photos are totally great!
AnaLu was kind enough to weigh in a little more on my posts. The missing part for me was the duplicate layer with the 'soft light' overlay. TOTALLY makes the image glow! Here are her words:
The tips Nissa mention were:
I take my pics at 3200×2400 in a white backdrop (or black, depending on the outfit) inside the Photoshpere. In PhotoShop, I use the magic wand to past them to a white background and remove all the white (or black) in them. After composing the pic, I use as backdrop a gradient or a pattern. After flatten layers, I duplicated the layers, use gaussian blur and overlay of soft light. Another method to lighten the pics is using the exposure in the adjustment layers.
I try not to change the original picture. I want people to see the outfits exactly how they are.
I will make a tutorial one of these days.
The discussion was here:

Beautiful outfits =D
Thanks guys!! I'm a huge fan of the magic wand too, but die hards hate the pixel destruction, and prefer layer masks. I was just saying to you the other night Sas how I'm such a photoshop noob with photos, and unless it's a template with bewbs and such I feel uncomfortable, funny isnt it! But srsly, thank you all for the inspiration. <33
I mean photos for blogging, and showing off clothes! Artistic stuff is a diff story, but the 2 can be combined!!
*smiles*
I wrote a proper post for everyone to link with my original words in a comment. :)
The best tutorial for LOMO pics is this: http://photoshoptutorials.ws/photoshop-tutorials/photo-effects/lomography.html.
I found the one you mentioned but the final result has nothing to do with Lomography.
My fav LOMO camera is Holga: http://www.lomography.com/holga/. You can obtain really weird results with it.
