Sorry homework, you'll have to wait.

I have an addiction. It's not the usual types of addiction that may come to mind: drugs, alcohol, shopping even. It is ...Photoshop. Not even Photoshop, actually, but a free knock-off known as Seashore. It's awesome. Has everything you would want to do to edit and manipulate your photos but is hundreds of dollars cheaper than Photoshop and a hundred times easier to use than Gimp, in my opinion.

This doesn't necessarily seem like it would be a bad addiction to have. I mean, I'm not hurting anyone and it's actually a productive hobby. The only problem is ....I have barely gotten ANY homework or studying done since I stumbled across this program. English paper or Seashore, guess what wins? It's getting even worse now because family members have started asking if I will make Christmas cards for them to send out. Obviously, that has become a priority over even the most important of homework. Because, let's face it, Christmas cards have to be sent out soon!

Here is the finished product for my sister and brother-in-law's Christmas card:





It's nothing too fancy or complicated, but hey it made them happy, and it's a lot more fun than working on a paper. So much fun in fact, that I made another version just for the hell of it.




I was pretty proud of this one. It's a combination of three different pictures. The dogs were in one picture, my sister and brother-in-law were in another, and the background was the last. It's obviously corny, but again, very entertaining.

With all of the cool function to play with, and the infinite amount of photos I have to utilize, I am surprised I even managed to find time to write this blog. Seashore is definitely my newest obsession, but hey, at least I'm not an alcoholic!
