Yay indeed! I have been avidly watching your Sunflower river posts- what y'all are building out there is just coming out incredible. And one of these days I will be there helping, by gum. I will actually be in Europe for New Years- I'm flying out to visit my sister. (I get limited vacation time, so I am making the most of it, or else!)

Photoshop, O heart of my heart. It is basically the most amazing program ever. Have you ever played with pressure sensitive tablets? I have an old, mini, Wacom tablet that gives me the best of pen-and-ink line control, with all the beauty of undo, redo, free transform and layers. I really love classical analog media, but... the CONVENIENCE. The ease! The undo function!
