My friend Adam and I are in a secret club. It’s kind of like being a PhotoShop hipster, only less hatable. We believe in the powers of the, what I like to call, “classical” or “vintage” PhotoShopping. He even is giving away free printable Flyster currency. One Fly Dollar is good for five strands of my fake red hair. What a deal! Go check out his post for some serious laughs and probably an ego boost.

I don’t even have photoshop – I have to make do with the free equivalent, which is slightly worryingly named The Gimp…
Those did make me chuckle.
The Gimp? Did anyone seriously name a program that? That is just bad Marketing right there.
Free or not!
Even more worryingly is that there’s been a book published on how to use it. When I was still employed, someone called up asking for it, and the member of the customer service team who’d been the, er, lucky girl to pick up the phone, didn’t know about the existence of the software, and so told the customer that it was probably an title we were very unlikely to stock. I then found the book in question and I don’t think we could get it anyway, but yes, when most people associate the word “gimp” with things like the 50 Shades of Rubbish series, it’s definitely not the best name for the software!! But it works just as well as photoshop, in its defense!
I may have to check it out… if I can get past the name. Thanks!
Ha, yeah! And googling it might be a bit, well, dangerous too.
True that! Thanks for the heads up. Wouldn’t want that search history at work!
I’ve just worked out it stands for GNU Image Manipulation Program. That might be a safer internet search!
You have shown me the way! I have been hiding my lackluster Photoshop skills. I should be loud and proud! 🙂
You should Kellly! Be not afraid!
So what you are saying is, you are really a black man, and you are actually great at Photoshop and thus can alter your self to look like a readheaded woman.. who really does not have red hair 😛
Whatever you say ;)!
I learned a valuable lesson from this today…If you lack certain tech skills, any photo of George Bush doing a current fad will pull you through!
Good to know, right?!
Failure has bever been so successful!
My thoughts exactly!
Lol. More please. Would’ve given the SATC one a higher grade but the face should’ve been longer.
Isn’t Adam a dream?
Adam Levine? Of course he is – http://foodandwinehedonist.com/2013/01/18/man-crush-adam-levine/
Oh, and this Fotoshop guy ain’t bad either!
NICE.
I suck at Photoshop, too, but you knew that already.
I know everything about you.
That’s pretty much what I was getting at. It’s kinda creepy.
Creepy is the new charming.
Oh. Well then I feel much better about all of this now.
As you should.
You know just how to manipulate me.
Stop trying to get the last word!
If I do that how will I keep my spot in your top commenter section?
That’s so cute!
Lol.
if creepy is the new charming, then i’m moving up in the world. thanks!
In this case, yes, you are practically Prince William.
