ReplyDeleteDigital Doctor DVD's I am sure would cure my photoshop ailments, there are so many things I am doing the hard way or just not doing because I need more training. Hello!
ReplyDeleteFirst, happy birthday, Beth! Love all the wonderful birthday goodies.
ReplyDeleteAnd I so miss Phototalk Forum. I really need a membership there. I signed up in the very beginning, but moved just before renewal time--and because it took a whole year to sell my house and move, I pretty much don't have anything left for any of the really cool things that would make starting over easier.
