I'll let you go on that one, Crumb, but the one before that I have to take a shot.

That's me "old dog".

You can say that again--they don't even make your breed anymore!

GB,

I couldn't resist, and everytime 'anything' like that gets on my monitor's screen I immediately know what NOT to do......

........I'd post all my screwups but it would be lengthy and I don't want to give Mulder any ammo.

btw, I'm just starting to mess around with 'Photo Brush' so you're not alone in your quest to learn about that stuff.

Angel,

AZ that's me

DS---I guess if we didn't screw up know and then we wouldn't be human or as interesting. When we're old and grey (like Mulder is now) we can sit in the old folks home and giggle to ourselves.

Working with these graphics programs is turning out to be fun and challenging. I'm putting together a few things to post on the web site I maintain.

By the way Crumb--why the change in the Avatar? I thought the gorilla fit well, although Curly is apropos as well!

Thanks, AZ - you're the best!!!

(You don't do plastic surgery by chance, do you?! )

And do you guys realize there are more than 2000 posts in this thread?! Wow!

You are wise. Yes, you make a very good point. It can be "Work".
But I have a saying ; If it is difficult, you are doing it wrong. Whenever I start struggling w/ a task, I stop, step back, and THINK!
I invariably come up w/ a better method.

Art should be FUN. If it isn't, you are doing it wrong.

AZ---You are also wise. Can I get you to talk to my kids? I try to explain to them that if they get frustrated with whatever they are doing (homework etc etc) they're lost. You can't accomplish anything once you've become frustrated. You got to step back, reassess, re-think and start again.

OMG!!!!!!!! I'm busy for a few days and you guys talk up like what... close to a thousand posts??? Wow, you guys really can "ramble on" with out me... I'm proud of you guys...

BTW... I noticed the "official rambler" certificate. (Thanks Hewee...) Well then, I guess I'll just hafta to start spending time here again. It feels so good to have finals done now... It's so good to be back...

[eggplant43]

Welcome back Deuce. I posted earlier this evening that we could really get going when you finished your finals. We've done alright without you, but missed you. How did the finals go?

GB,

You nailed it. <i>Frustration</i> is my cue. When I realize resistance to my effort, I stop. I step back and I THINK. Then I go w/ the grain instead of against it. (so to speak).

I thought you guys would get a kick out of this. Usually I get gifts for clients, which are joke gifts (in the past, I've done a mug that when heated displays a shark, a "pocket attorney", etc.). This year we decided to give the money to the victim's fund instead of buying client gifts. However, not wanting to miss the oppotunity for my annual joke, I baked cookies and handed out the following recipe with them:

Hey great we need more people to post images.


Mulder,

Long nights you have have there. So what are you going to do with the new Logo?

[Dark Star]
