Not Cooperating.

Kit Kat was sitting so nicely on a chair looking out a window that I thought I might try the theme for the week. As soon as I started to get close to her, she turned towards me and looked the camera. Silly kitty, I can't look get her to look at me when I want her to, but when I don't want her to look at me, that's exactly what she does. I found the shot kind of boring, not to mention the color of my walls looked horrible so I applied a sketch edit from picnik. I then attempted to add the red "vampire eyes" effect from picnik, but that didn't really show up as much as I wanted it to.
Silly kitty! While I like the simplicity of this edit, it's kind of hard to see kitty!

Hmm. I see what you are saying. The edit looked better on Picnik. I'm not sure why that is. Maybe I can go in and add more detail to her.

@mej2011 or jack up the contrast just to make the lines stand out more. I'm not sure what would bring out the detail.....

I'll give them both a shot and see what happens.

@pwallis
How is this?

Oh, just noticed that notification - yep, now I can see Kitty:) I actually really like the shot, but I've never been a fan of the sketch tool in Picnik, but that's just personal preference. Sorry to rain on your kitty parade! Tell her I still love her!

The new edit has seemed to gotten rid of the red eyes for some reason. I'm not really a fan of the sketch edit either, I would have preferred a cartoonish edit, but I can't ever seem to do those right.

not a fan of the sketch effect either, maybe adjustable threshold could yield better results ?
