I wanted to share my tribute to Paris. I googled for a Photoshop gradient of the Paris flag and found one so I used it on a white layer, then used Texture Effects on that layer 3 times to get the look I wanted. I cut out the Eiffel tower from a vintage postcard found at thegraphicsfairy.com where you can find thousands of vintage images. I also added one Texture Effects filter on the combined image.

Nicely done and very appropriate. I'd suggest flipping the flag gradient horizontally, though. (The blue on the French flag is on the side that's attached to the pole, and that's normally shown on the left.)

Thanks for the Graphics Fairy tip; it looks like a good resource.

Perfect (except perhaps for the flag thing Dennis mentioned.

Picky, picky :t3 OK, I flipped it. I guess the guy who made the gradient didn't know either!
