Thanks. In hindsight I probably should have curved the inner side as well but I was petrified of ruining the piece.
Doesn't matter anyway because the person who came after me screwed the whole aesthetic up - just slapped on a horrible border.
Yeah, I know, kumbaya and all that.
Too bad.
But you can see how a straight piano keys border, while still (would that be whilst?) having the ombre effect, would have been kinda boring.
It was incredibly easy to do once I got going.
@Jenel -
I think it's has a great idea of curving your underwater backgrounds.
Here's a quick tutorial - there are plenty more. Using "free form" gets you more than "freestyle" in your Google search.
