Photoshop
I am such a novice at photoshop but over the last few days I have been trying to learn a thing or two. These are my first attempts at changing an image into a cartoon. I know I'll get better at time. My line drawing could use a lot of work. So, please excuse the edges not being smooth on the line drawing version. This will take some work in But, I really wanted to first understand how you can do it and then practice on the techniques of coloring and line. I did my line drawing before coloring...I really should have done this after so I do have some weird lines but this is just practice.
I'm telling you photoshop can be so complicated!!! I have learned so much though about photoshop. It really is quite an amazing software package.
Stay tuned for the next step....bubble letters.

Clever you, Joanna, I'm a Paint Shop Pro girl myself but this is very clever.
You have made a great job of that Joanna. It is a good package, but rather expensive I think(:>)
Illustrator is a better program for what you are trying to do. It is a vector (mathematical) based program which means the lines are smooth and can be resized with no quality loss. Photoshop is a pixel based program (little squares), so your lines will always be somewhat ragged. You really did a great job! Practice makes perfect.
That's brilliant!!! If that is just a practice piece I can't wait to see what you do when you're an expert with Photoshop. I've been using it for about 5 years and still learn new things.
