[ `ABOUT YOU! ]

Name: Most places I am called "backinthesaddle" but I like to be called "bits" (b:back i:in t:the s:sadle). Real name is Alex, I don't care what you call me XD
Age: 16 years
Contacts: I'm always available at backinthesaddle.deviantart.com
A Little Bit About You: I'm horse crazy and always have been. I own a wonderful horse named Tucker who is coming out of a planned retirement, due to some problems with his hooves...which have been solved. He is basically the center of my life <3 I've been riding for over ten years, mainly western, but have recently taken up english riding.
Why You Want To Work Here: I was accepted at Darri Designs and then my laptop died for a few months and was never able to make an image. When I found they were sadly inactive, I decided to find another lovely studio to belong to.
How You Found Us: The lovely Serephinex is to blame ;P
Any Questions: 'Nope

[ `ABOUT THE IMAGES! ]

Experience: Less than a year
Program: Paint Shop Pro
Have You Worked Anywhere Else? If So, Where?: Darri Designs z11.invisionfree.com/darri_designs/index.php?c=3
Website/Gallery: I only have a few manipulations...they are not my best work. Ah well. Just before my computer died, I cleared out my gallery of "old" manipulations. It is here, anyways: backinthesaddle.deviantart.com
Which Images You Will Be Working With: Equines ^.^
Your Style: Oh gosh, I still seem to be finding my style! I feel like I'm still a bit new to photo-manipulation so I guess that's what I'll be hopefully working here -.^

backinthesaddle.deviantart.com/art/ef123-Manip-102379616 <---I'm not very proud of this one, I am still working on it. The hooves aren't finished, I only made them a bit transparent but I am going to go back and make them "fit into the sand" better :)

2+ Examples Of Best Colorizing & Blending:
This is an example of me practicing blending a background: backinthesaddle.deviantart.com/art/WIP-103034184
I don't usually blend a lot of backgrounds; I usually may put in a different sky or something. As for horses I usually don't colorize them because I'm still trying to figure out a realistic way to do that in paint shop pro! I can, however, blend them to fit into backgrounds pretty well (at least I feel that way XD).

QUESTIONS TAKEN DOWN SO THOSE APPLYING CAN'T REFER TO FOR CORRECT ANSWERS.blockquote]

[`Lissie Lauren]

In the time that I've known you (which I believe was around the time which you started photomanipulating) you have progressed amazingly well.
Your creativity outshines your experiance in many areas and if there is something you cant quite get to work properly, you find a way.
I believe thats what IT is looking for in terms of Personalizers.
Wouldn't you say, Zo, Mattie, Asylum, and Zombie?

I would say Trial Basis, just so that the other Mods and Admins can see what I see, but I've noticed a few personalizers whos skills are not even quite up to par to yours (not naming names =]) so I'm going to go with A C C E P T E D
