The photoshop filter one has an ethereal look to it. Nice. But I'm drawn to the sketch filter.
You have photoshop? Have you ever tried some of the 'Actions' out there? I have about 100 loaded in and they were all free. The better ones let you make adjustments as the process plays out.

Thought I had a project for which I needed them. Project fell through so haven't really used them.

When I was a kid we believed the buckeye was poisonous. It has a lot of tannins, so I guess that is why it was thought poisonous. The story was that only one of the nuts was edible, and the squirrel would only eat that nut.

I don't believe I've seen a tree with this many nuts on it.
