New client

Last week I started working with a new client, Schubert Communications. They are located fairly close to here so I have met with the president in person, something I don't often get to do.

Photoshop Touch

I picked up Photoshop Touch the other day and I can't believe how powerful it is. Just about everything I would want to do with photos can be done in there. The only thing that bugged me was not being able to select multiple layers at once.

Without leaving the app I loaded a pic of me, found a pic of some ducks via ...
