I say on the Concert Tale page that I "photoshopped" this together, but that's actually rather a misnomer--even if I wanted to shell out the bucks for Adobe Photoshop, it wouldn't run on any of our computers. (My hubby and I are both Linux devotees.) I actually created this with
the GIMP, an open-source image manipulation program that's free for the downloading (and available for all major operating systems, by the by, for those of you on Windows systems). I was quite proud of how well the whole thing came out--and prouder still that Jimi was so happy to accept the extra copy I gave him as a gift. He may never do more with it than take it home and tuck it away in a closet or something, but it was rather a symbolic gesture for me anyway, and I'm happy just knowing that I made it.
Oh, and to give credit where credit is due, the lyric is from "Friends We Never Met" on
Crossroads Moment--I hope Jim Peterik doesn't mind my borrowing it!
