Looks very nice, just as a friendly advice, I know gif keeps images file size low, but you should consider another image compresion format for you artistic images, the dithering of the gif compression leaves out subtleties that could help appreciate your work more. This is more relevant when you are showing your images in such a big format as these are more than 1000 px tall and wide. Unless it was intended

I would personally recommend jpeg from 60 to 80% compression, wichever number in that range you think it looks best for your work. And if you really don't want to leave out any detail use PNG-24, that would leave a massive file size but the lossless compression could shave half the size of the original uncompressed file.

If you're worried about IP theft then use some digital watermarks.

It's real natural media or you're using a graphics program like Painter IX?

Good points, I didn’t really think about it, just wanted to keep the fire size down so I didn’t blow up some ones computer (grin)

The real ones are "massive" and in real media, but you are very right, I need to watermark everything and then post them in full detail some day. vict:
