This is a picture of my newly custom motorcycle.
I changed this picture by adding a black back layer.
then I changed the picture to black and white.
Then I removed the edges of the picture to give it a burn western poster look.
Then I inserted three pictures of the bike in smaller size using the lasso tool, and a good eraser.
After inserting I changed the color contrast to each one. Which one is original?
Then I added the test WANTED to add a more western poster feel.

Here I am Sking at Rock Port,
The changes I made as you can see is I added three other pictures of me sking, by using the clone stamp, and also the lasso.
Then I changed the color contrast to make the Purple's really stand out.
Then I enhanced the color green on the ski's and the wake.
I then removed the color contrast on me, making myself stay in perfect original color.
Then Just becasue I am in the air I added the word Flight to add a little flare.

To Facebook or Not?

So the new thing is Facebook friends. Did you know that you can now be considered a loser on two different criteria? Well it is true, the old fashioned loser was the kid with no friends who sat alone at lunch, come on we all can think of someone like that, think back to high school, there you go.. You now remember someone now. And the second criteria of a loser are the lack of Facebook friends, or the lack of Facebook tags. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but it now is double hard to protect your reputation. Did you know that employers will check Facebook to keep tabs on their employees, and when you go out land your dream job, make sure those pictures of you at the wild party are of your page and that your ex-lovers nasty comments are off your wall, because your future employer will check you out on Facebook. I am not a Facebook user, so I find it very interesting how a cyber network can eat away at the social interaction that we once had, people are trading their personal interaction for a wall message or a chat with a friend, it has been said that Facebook makes it easier to get in touch with an old friend, because it is easier than a phone call. I remember when the phone call was the easy way to communicate, you and the other person did not have to see facial expressions, and that is what made it an easy way to communicate, but that classic phone call is now out dated, and substituted for typed message. So I ask you To Facebook or Not?

Is there a difference between private and public?

It is a wild world when your private internet searches in the comfort of your own home are no long private. When the search engines you use save all of you past searches. Where do we draw the line between public and private?
It is legal for search engines to save your searches. For what reason we are not sure, but there is no current law stopping the archiving of individuals internet inquires. And it is very interesting that the major search engines are working to hype up there search speed to pull users away from going directly to the page they are seeking, almost making it mandatory to visit there site first. And let’s not forget that they are saving our search inquires. Could it be possible that some here has ulterior motives? I am not proposing anything I am just looking at this with a defensive attitude.

Where Has Email Etiquette Gone?

Where Has Email Etiquette Gone?
We are now in the year 2009! We are now in the year 2009! It is a new time, a time of high speed internet, and mobile everything, life as we know it has been put in fast forward. Fast food is now too slow, we are part of a society that wants everything now, and there is no time for waiting.

The day of written letters for friendly corresponds have been thrown aside and replaced with a faster form of communication Email. The fastest most reliable form of communication, yet is it the more efficient?

The art of a properly written English letter has sadly been disregarded. And replaced with slang and lingo, which opens up an entirely new way of communication. Rules only exists in the hand of the individual preparing the email, and the rules they hold are the rules the want to keep, or the rules they have made up.

Is this the future of communication? Or is this just the first inclination of the future before us? Will we become a society that abolishes rules and formal organization, for convenience?

I will not! It is time to fight, to bring back Etiquette.
