Ever wondered? - World's Longest TrainHave you ever wondered about designing, creating, and
then wearing the world's longest train? We're not talking
about locomotives (I'm almost sure of that), we're talking
about dresses. And we're not talking about any old train,
we're talking about a train that's 72 feet long! :D
It's one thing to walk down the street wearing a dress
like that, but it is another thing entirely to wear it whilst
walking through a fountain!!

UPDATED: 55 Ways to be Positive!Building on Our Community's Strengths
The focus of the photomanipulation community needs to remain on art, but there should also be emphasis on connections between artists. Building a positive atmosphere where artists feel supported and accepted is conducive to the production of great art.

35 55 Ways to Be Positive
Thanks to those of you who have helped so far, we now have 55 things you can do to be a positive influence in our community:

Why must you credit your stock?Hey, photomanipulators!

And, oh my gosh, you guys, I found two that are BREATHTAKING :jawdrop: that I really, really wanted to feature. But-- you guessed it-- they did not credit their stock resources. :noes: :cry:
This isn't just a problem that I have as a CV.

On MentoringHello, everyone!
I’m so excited for the opportunity to contribute just a bit to Project Educate this week! My topic for tonight is something that is very important to me: Mentorship. :heart:
What is “Mentorship,” exactly?
The answer to this question may seem obvious, but let’s break it down for the purposes of discussion. In essence, the “short answer” is that mentorship is the development of a partnership between two individuals in which there is the implicit or explicit understanding that one of those individuals has a skill or bit of knowledge that the other one would like to learn.
