Here is my new pet Snippy:

The li'l foundling's been hanging out on my deck since yesterday.

Is that too big? I wrote my text on a separate layer, did a raised emboss, converted to alpha channel and then inverted the colors. I flattened the whole mess together and voila!

The original was at 1600x1200 @ highest quality (my digicam is only 2 Megapixel) and it only cuts in jpegs (I hate the artifacts jpegs introduce).

Snippy left us this evening after staying for lunch. It wasn't going to catch anything on my back deck, so I gave it a goodie or two.

Watched it cross my fence, climb to the top of a shrub, and up, up and away!

I'll miss the little critter

It's the classic story.

Boy finds bug, falls in love with bug, bug leaves him, boy cries.
