How would one write out the sound effect of a stomach growing, like when it's hungry and stuff like that?

I recently completed a painting on canvas in which I used permanent marker designs on top of acrylic paint. I was wondering if there was a way to keep the marker from fading away. Any kinds of products that will preserve the designs?

What do you like/dislike about the Nikon D40? What would be the best lens for it and at what price? Is it worth buying the "kit" with 2 lenses or just the body with the 1 lense?

p.s. It would be my first dslr. I want one and it is the less expensive Nikon and probably better for starting out on. I had an old Nikon FM10 35mm, but am sick of using a relative's little Kodak point and shoot.

I am going to look at it in the morning since it will be Black Friday

I have had a digital camera for about two years, and I just wonder if folks who use photoshop recommend it for beginners or should we just continue using something like Picasa? I am just about out of subjects to shoot...or am I just unimagnative. Actually it's a very exciting medium...how does one know if his photos are really "art". I certainly don't want to be a diletante but I honestly don't know if this is good for me to pursue.

I live a few miles from the Getty Center (Los Angeles) and it's free to get in. (http://www.getty.edu). Anyway, during one of my frequent trips, I was walking down their beautiful stairs, and this caught me. I think it would be completely different if it were in black and white.

I used Canon 5D with Canon 50 mm f 2.5 Macro lens. It is an inexpensive lens--very very sharp, but a bid loud (during focus) and it served me well.

I am new to filters and polarizers and have a question or two about them.

Can I buy a grad.neutral density filter that just screws onto the threads of the lense? Or do I have to buy the filter strips and then adapters to shoot with them?

If there are circular grad. ND filters rings that mount directley to the lense what brand Grad ND filter would you recomend?

Plus, Are all the threads on these lenses for adapting filters the same? I realize there diamaters are different but Iam refering to the threads for attaching the filters or Uv protectors to them. Thanxs!

I have a project based on it and at the moment just have to experiment. I have lots of ideas but thought I'd see if anyone had any great ideas that would get me thinking in other ways. I'm trying to focus on not such obvious topics as transport although if any great ideas to experiment on that topic came about I'd be willing to explore the idea.
For example things I have done so far are things like rolling toilet rolls down some stairs taking lots of photos. I've painted a coin and let it keep rolling on a piece of paper to see what it lands on most and to get interesting lines as to where to coin has travelled around. Also things like footprints and a few other random ideas. If anyone has any genious ideas or other random topics to explore on the theme of travel I'd be extremely grateful :)

It is in autumn colors. In the local store it is above the framing area, but not for sale. It is a field with trees along the edges and a fairly large round brown and gold one on the right side. I would appreciate it's name or the artist who did the original, or any source where I might be able to purchase a copy. Thanks!

the artist is Alex Austen 1913, it seems to be quite well painted.
I have tried many times to find out about him on the internet, he cannot be a well known artist. Any ideas about how I might get some info about him?

if you dont want to answer them all, then will you atleast answer the 3rd question?
thanks in advance

1. what art college is considered to be the most well known and the "top notch" in the U.S.?

2. what art college provides both illustration AND art education (like for becoming an art teacher)

3. is it more important for a college to be "top notch" and well known or is it more important for a college to have a college that is fit for me?
