LOL Be sure to send me the link to your account at DDG, or post it here, so that I can follow you.
This is a Deep Dream one that is so freaking cool (not that I did anything special- just Generated it LOL) but I love all of the animal faces, it is like playing Where's Waldo!
I'm not a big fan of the DD with all the eyes, but I must agree, yours is cool, Chris. It looks like a giant bird, made of little animals, sitting on the hedge. You could spend hours just looking for all the little creature. I do see what I think is a mouse, perfect for you!! ♥

OK - Confession - I thought this was some sort of regression therapy or program to help you remember your dreams once you wake up... I mean, that first paragraph did not give away what was obvious to everyone else. I was SO intrigued - took you several months to make your posts public... ooOOOoo... what did they reveal?!
Now, I'm going to try to have enough connectivity to be able to research the REAL subject & program! Thank you for sharing this info, @Betty Jo !

Wellllllllll... That's not addictive at all!
Holy WoW! That's a rabbit hole that I NEED the restrictions to keep me from living in there for the next 3 days straight - or until all this ice and cold passes!
Your gallery is AHmazing, @Betty Jo ! As soon as I have share/follow powers, I surely will.
I'm justPattyAnne - as always.

@Patty Anne I am following you now. Can't wait to see what you make there
Oh my, @Patty Anne, you just cracked me up! I can see how you would come to that conclusion.OK - Confession - I thought this was some sort of regression therapy or program to help you remember your dreams once you wake up...

Yay, @Patty Anne another DDG convert, or should I say, addict! LOL Thank you, Patty Anne. I love it. Mine are rather boring compared to most, as I'm more of a realistic DDGer. It's amazing I should find your posts here this morning, as I was just at DDG earlier, and thought of you. I had the thought, "I'll bet Patty Anne could create some incredible creations here. Wonder if she'd be interested!" And, here you are and I'm now following you less than an hour later. Looking forward to see what you create.
Hmmm . . . I thought you could share publicly from the very first creation at DDG. Click on your photo. Go to the bottom and click on Dream Page, then click bottom right on the little gear icon (settings), then Edit Access and you can make it public there.
Here's a tip for when you start liking other's posts. Only like one or two in a particular gallery. I've heard chatter behind the scenes and some of the ones that have been there a long time hate it when someone likes twenty in a row in their gallery. They know immediately the person doing the liking isn't really looking at their creations, just clicking the thumbnail, and it offends many. I don't really care, but others definitely do. I awoke this morning to someone who liked a ton of mine! It's always good to return a like for a like too, unless the one liking your stuff has really gross, offensive material in their gallery, and trust me, some do.
Have fun!! ♥

@nobles Thanks for letting me know, Ursula. Found your gallery and am now following you. Yes, it's amazing and so much fun. You are off to a beautiful start; love the doggie! ♥
@nobles Ursula, when you first told me you were following me I went over to DDG to follow you back. I checked my followers and you were showing there. I just checked again, and you are no longer showing as a follower of mine. So, I checked your gallery where it says who you are following and it is showing zero. Did you change it, or is there a problem? If you didn't change it, unfollowed, I'll check it out to see what happened. (It's okay, if you decided not to follow, I'm fine with that, I was just wondering if there is a problem that I need to check into.) ♥

Betty Jo, I have no idea. I just looked at my files and it shows two followers, you and fairywings. Of course, I love followers. Never forget, my language is German and it could happen that I made a mistake somewhere. What is strange now, I have 0 in following, but before I was a follower of you what I want and I would like to follow fairywings as well and other Oscraps friends.
@nobles Try following Chris and me again, and if it doesn't work this time, I'm going to check in to it and see if I can find the reason it isn't sticking. Let me know if it changes after you've liked our pages again. If I don't hear from you, I'll know all is well. ♥
@nobles If it should change, just let me know. ♥
Thanks, Chris. Actually, I'm just learning as I go. Maybe after a bit longer using it myself, I'll write up a FAQ, and add it to the top of this thread.
That would be awesome! I feel a bit lost trying to figure out what kinds of photos work best with what styles as well as some of the more technical details. I had no idea that you can save styles that other people have used.
@faerywings Chris, go to anyone's photo you like and that has a style you'd like to use or save for later. Click on the gear icon below their photo. Then click on Show Similar. Then on the first photo that comes up, click on the little box with a plus in it left bottom corner of the style they used. The style is now auto added to your style collection.
Another resource for styles: From your gallery page click on the top left of the page, on Deep Dream Generator, at the top you will see Trending, Feed, Latest, Best. (BTW, Feed shows you all the photos posted by people you're following.) On any photo under those headings you can do the same as I outlined above to save any of the styles you like to your collection. The possibilities are endless. As, I said, I've got 44 and a half pages of styles saved. I've deleted a lot of them too!
Here is a screen shot of the first page of my saved styles, and you can see how many pages. I have several in there I've created myself too.

@faerywings Chris, I still struggle at times finding the right style for the look I want to achieve with my photo. I study carefully what others have done on the ones that I really like. Then I will try that style, and their settings on one of my own photos. Sometimes, it works, other times, I don't care for it, but will continue to experiment until I find what I like. Sometimes I love what the style does for the main subject of my photo, but I don't like all the lines and stuff on the background. But, I know I can save the photo and then take it into PS CS and remove, or rework, the parts I don't care for before using the photo.
I've been a big fan of Flickr for years. But, now that I'm back in the scrap world, I simply don't have time for Flickr, would rather spend my time photo processing for layouts. Here is one of my Flickr albums where I have DDG photos. All of these I created in DDG, then I re-processed in PS CS. This way I get the results I want, rather than being satisfied with whatever DDG happens to give me. If that makes sense: https://www.flickr.com/photos/b-j-martin/albums/72157714836461012

Thanks, Betty Jo, I found this and there I have much more styles. However, when I chose to generate it shows the last 24 only.
@nobles Ursula, go to your styles first, choose the style you want to use and click on it. It will open up to generate, then choose your photo at the top or import it, adjust your settings, then generate from there. That's the only way I ever do it.
neat program. All I could figure out how to do was to generate a photo in dream style. Not sure about following people. Thansk for sharing.
@scrapinmom Hi, Sharon. Yes, it's a lot of fun. There are a lot of questions and answers scattered throughout this thread when you have time to peruse it. As far as following. Below are links to my gallery and that of a few other friends here. Just click under the heading where it says +Follow in order to follow our galleries.
