News from the NEC is that adobe are pushing CS in terms of its capabilities for digital cameras, and to build a better relationship between the RAW data from the camera and the application itself. Sounds like some real innovations, including a great shadows and highlights feature that lets you find the image, even when silhouetted against the skyline.
I’m currently enjoying Illustrator CS, which has some nice 3D tools, especially useful for logos and visualising tiffs and .eps files onto 3D shapes. I know its not in the league of most CAD software, but for bits of POS and product design, its a big help.
getting use to typepad
Well its taken me quite a few days to get to this point, there’s been plenty of tweaking, and I don’t think its quite there yet. i think, once a few more entries are up, we’ll start to let a few people know its here. I think there could be a few more templates to choose from, and maybe allow a little more personalisation, and I find myself thinking about going +plus or pro in a couple of months, once I got a bit more html under my belt.

Tonight at Tai-Chi, our instructor was being observed by someone from the college. We worked hard, and completed some more interesting phases. My thighs ache a little, but as I haven’t been on the bike for about a week. Tonight, the light seemed to last right until 6 o’clock, the days are getting longer, and soon the clocks will go back. It’ll be a great day, and at last it feels in sight.
weather report
After a frosty start, it looks like getting warmer today, the sun is white, and the sky is clear. These frosty mornings have been painful for the car, on Monday I replaced the battery after a few difficult starts. It seems to have sorted it out. By the way, I own a dark green Peugeot 106, it has a sunroof and CD player, which since I got my ipod, I wish was actually a tape deck, so that I could slip one of those input tapes into it and listen to the ipod in the car.
message board
message board pt.2
When I was in a band, we played a gig in Hungary on a little island in the middle of the danube. The festival is one of the biggest in Europe. Dotted all around the island were these noticeboards, just in case you lost someone, or wanted to leave a message, put up a poster, or even leave a notice. This was one of them. I think may help you to understand the nature of this blog, sure its not going to look like this, but it will feel like this.
a slow start
Thanks to my friend Dom, I ‘ve managed to start this blog and hopefully over the coming seasons, I’ll be able to let you all know what I’m up to. I won’t claim to be vigilant, but I will try to update with useful things, not just junk. So thanks, and good luck (to me)
