About this image
I don't normally put up multiple sets, but I rather like the way this image turned out, so I thought I'd share it..(please double-click on the image to get the full size version).
As for Jessica herself, I started her story here in the Nexus a short while ago, but for various reasons I decided to abandon it, although I'm still doing her playthrough, and she's turned out to be a lot of fun!

This picture is absolutely outstanding with the perfect lighting to show Jessica simply beautiful as she is.
Many thanks again!
Is Nexus being extra weird today? Not sure why I missed this earlier, and then just now I hit Endorse, and nothing happened. So I hit it again, and it said Endorsed. I scrolled down to comment, then I scrolled back up to look at the image again, and it was NOT endorsed. I blame the Thalmor... but then... I usually do!
Many thanks for your comment.
Some monochrome images work very well, I think, but it's also quite an unforgiving style, but deep shadows always work well with it, and as you say, it seems to add mystery to the subject.
As for needing patience...oh dear, confession time...I have an ancient copy of Paint Shop Pro 8, and to get a monochrome image quite quickly all you have to do is open a standard colour image in the program, click on the "Image" tab and then click on the "Greyscale" button in the drop-down menu and there it is....instant "classic" black and white piccie, so this is really a cheat.
As I'm sure you will be aware, the program does have tabs that allow manipulation of the image, such as sepia toning and different levels of colour as well as monochrome alteration, overlays, saturation, balance, etc, but this image of Jessica is, as I have said...a straight cheat.
As for losing the endorsements, I've been aware of that for some time, it seems to happen if I endorse, then open a message box to put up a message, then if I change my mind and close the message box again, the endorsement seems to disappear and it can take two or three attempts to get the endorsement button to accept the click again.
As you say, definitely the Thalmor at work!
Sorry, I went off into ramble mode again... are you shocked by that?
I used to assume that all monochrome images were modified, but in recent years I have seen images where they are partially monochrome, partially one color highlighted. I have never tried to mess around with ENB settings to try and do either monochrome or that mixed monochrome mode, to see if that is how it is done. Mainly because, as you may have noticed... I like more color in my Skyrim, and have taken a lot of time to add it in with tons of retextures!
So while I do sometimes try new things and experiments, I tend to stay with what I know best. And while I enjoy seeing them, I will leave monochrome to the more artistic members of the community. Which, of course, is almost everybody!
Hope your weekend is going great. Gotta say it one more time... PSP made several things possible in the past for me, so thanks for the memories!
Have a great weekend and enjoy the sun or the Irish rain.
One of the things about her that I'm really enjoying is that I assigned her the "femaleshrill" voice, which you would be forgiven for thinking it would grate on the nerves after a while, and to some degree it does, but every now and again she sounds very caring, too! It's an odd mix, but it seems to work.
Thanks again and the same to you

Les, my friend, you have a great job!
Many, many thanks, my friend!
