"Bathing Beauties" - fixed picture quality problem

© All Rights Reserved
15:53 Problem solved: I exported the file as a PNG file and uploaded that to my blog. Now it looks right. Hooray! Sorry for this long blog post. I'm leaving the below image, which some people already left comments on, because it documents the problem for me.

This week’s Gothic Arches challenge was “Bathing Beauties.” I am excited and thrilled to be a new member. This is my first entry for this challenge site. My piece consists of three sections: The background behind the gothic arch, the gothic arch itself, and the area inside the gothic arch, where the theme is. I used a B&W drawing of vintage young bathing beauties, which I modified slightly and then colored. I used a tracery window that I modified for the gothic arch, then added stars and a moon to it. I used water for the background. This is a digital creation.

Note: I’m having a picture quality resolution problem with the blue gothic arch. It looks blurry. (It looks fine on my computer, before I upload it to my blog.) I’ve had this problem before but I haven’t determined the cause of it yet. I’m leaving this on my blog but I’m not posting it to the challenge site because it is of too poor quality to enter. :-(
