I agree with Welshblue. The blending is just beautiful.

Aside from the text issues (the idea is great), what I really like about this one is the colours & the way you merged all of the images together. The stadium makes an excellent frame. I really don't know anything about footy so please forgive my ignorance but are the figures on the right (light grey ones) former players from like yesteryear? I looks like they are ghosts watching over the other players & the game.
Pretty darned fantastic the way you've done this compilation. I love it! Well done & great to see you back.

I was in the middle of commenting yesterday when we had a power cut , anyway it's not 'crap' mate far from it, photomanips are very difficult to do. I love the idea behind this, the mix of past and present, what I was thinking when looking at it is if you were to reduce the size of the past players/managers and fade them a bit more it would push them back more and give a bigger feeling of walking through time/history.

Thanks Welshy,I agree about the text but not the final.We should've won by more,bit've jealousy creeping in there mate. Thanks Helen. Thanks Barbie,always nice to hear from you. AFG.Thanks for your comments.It is just something I threw together to get me back doing something. Seemed like the longer I left it the harder it was to get back into the groove,if you know what I mean. Hopefully I'll get back into it now,coz I do enjoy it, as we all do. Same as City,onwards and upwards.

If the rest of the house is as good as the door it going to look great.

Well, if this is something you just 'threw together', then can't wait to see what you do when you really get down to it ;D Seriously, the door is fantastic. So sorry to hear you have not been well. Hope you feel better real soon

Great work using a slight gradient several places. That is the details that really makes it look great.

I've changed the bottom text cos it was crap,"not much better now" I hear you say. The top text I can live with.Anyway it's finished now,I'm not messing with something that was only a stop gap to begin with

Good to see you back Manc! I've been sort of away too, I know what you mean about getting back into the groove.
I like the City piece, nice blending of images. The door is really nice too. I like the colour, and it means nothing to me in the way of sports, I just like it.

Well, welcome back BP.I do think it's hard to get back if you leave it for a while.Saying that, everybody is so friendly and supportive,it's easy to start again. I've got a new idea for a pic,based on Sargon's ripple.I've stopped taking the meds so I'm ok now. Probably

That is so, so awesome! I haven't seen anyone put something inside a ripple like you did. Wow. And great job on the color scheme, too. Really nice!
