Thanks for the help Apple!!!

Come and help me celebrate the most innovative piece of electronic gadgetry that has come a long way from the Mac Book Pro. Of course I am taking about the iPad 2!!  Not be confused with its predecessor, the iPad.

I like the simplicity of the design and the ability to explore other people’s websites on (Youtube), to receive instruction on how to troubleshoot iPad related issues.  In other words, there are online sources that direct you in the right way to victory.

     I find the one item that I really rely on to get my work done on the iPad is the Safari link application.  Without it I would be lost, and out of my mind.  I would also like to do more projects with the iMovie application, because I love seeing an idea, and putting that thought to video.  It seems that every time I come across an event, I always tell myself that I wish I could video tape this moment in time.

but why is iPad the most efficient item out in the market today, and why do people like myself really need to use this delight. I am almost sold in the idea to purchase one of these little dynmos, and the answer to that is workspace cleanliness. I am an incredible clean freak, and I feel that the time it takes me to organize a workspace is too long. I will be ready for the time when there are very few items on a person’s desk, or table. Another neat little item that all office goers want is everthing-in-one. I will be happy for the day when I am in an office of my own, and I am looking for cleanliness, and efficiency.

     Keep in mind that we as a culture are constantly looking for the better gadget, the cure-all for the workplace, and I feel that the iPad is that gotta have item ever young, and old will enjoy through the next few years.

     In closing, I would give this little powerhouse a big thumbs up. Way to go Apple, for your innovation, and attention to imagination. HORAAY!!!

Super Nova for the world.

    I don’t what it is about the universe, and everything involved about it. I get really stupid about my comprehension to the reality of me, and everything floating around me, at several million miles.

Now the sun is important to me, and everyone on this planet. I want to know what goes on with this giant ball of heat on a daily basis if possible. If the solar flares can harm, then I would like to know how that is going to affect my safety.

That is why we should know of the dangers of what can happen to us, if there happens to be a solar big enough to hurt us. Of course there are many theories surrounding the “what if” scenario.. Hopefully in the future, I would hope that we as a world would have something in place to protect us from the harmful ultraviolet rays.

I feel that this is a wonderful sub-link, to visit while on the National Geographic website. I feel we should all know what the sun’s capabilities are. You cannot go wrong knowing about the world, and all  its hidden wonders.

Can I get a tweet up in herea!!

Paintmonkey is a really good idea for the novice painter, who doesn’t know if they got what it takes to make it in the Art world. Can you really know if you are up to the challenge of being a Painter? One way to see if this is true is show a few of your closest friends, but be warned. You may not like what they say, unless your friends are like my friends. Then this is fine.

Sotheby’s.  If you interested in all the most expensive Art and Jewelery there is to be had, then this tweet is just a click away. I find that the Masters of the paint word/classics are selling their works. Even though they have shed their mortal coils. This site give you a window into the paint, and arts world, where otherwise you would have to travel a great distance, to see these pieces.

PabloPicasso I didn’t know that there a lot of twitter sites for the dead. My mistake! This is a very interesting tweeter. This person really seems very revolutionary about his peers. Very passionate person. I respect that, and where the Art world is headed.

The New School This a revolutionary type of school for the evolving, and advancing Artist. It is located in the Greenwich Village area of New York. I give up to them for calling themselves “revolutionary new”. I think that they are keeping it real. Hopefully a lot of people can visit their site, to see if this is the type of education that they might want for themselves.

Micheal Dambold A very articulate person. I love his use of Dept of Field, in everyday objects, foods, and people; especially pizza. He really loves dramatic colors, and the juxtaposition of simple form. Great artist to look at.

A colorful arangement of Nice

This is an interesting merger of colors. The arrangement wasn’t easy for me, but I like using the 3-D effects. Much more dramatic for this composition. This is what I call a vibrant collection, and the square isn’t bad either. What I was trying to convey here is that you can take simple shapes, and use many tools in the tools pallet as necessary. I am really starting to enjoy this aspect of Digital Imaging, and the range of tools that is offered to all of us. A wonderful suprise to an almost overwhelming project. Not to be confused with the Computer Science field. That is a different can of worms.

Orbitz Ad: A distinct Lack of Imagination

Why can’t we as a group of individuals, come up with anything original these days? I think its because we don’t look for more fresh ideas. We keep using the same old ideas over, and over again. When that day comes, oh what a glorious day that will be.

Editing Image

I am very happy to announce, that I am finally am in charge of my thoughts, and with Photoshop 5.0, I am taking it to the next level. To take an image that I photographed, and to alter it, to give a bigger meaning to like-minded ideas, is awsome. What I mean is that I am seeing ideas. I am editing ideas, and the end result is perfect. Mine being children are always jumping where they should look first. So that is where we adults come in. We are cautious to look first, and then if the waters fine, then jump. I use the older boy, behind my younger son Jorden, to anchor the concept of age, being the representation of wisdom.

There is one person that comes to mind, when I think of influential people, that made the Hero what he, or she is today. The comic book is one particular type of media, to associate the good guy, from the bad guy. Stan Lee; he gave us such identifiable Icons, such as: Spider Man, Captain America, The X-men, and others. Each Hero came with their own special kind of vulnerabilities in life went on. In comparison to the daily challenges that pitted them against each villainous character. Even in his younger years, he saw the future of what his type of media could be. Stan just needed someone to give him the chance to  make his characters reality. His Editor, who was constantly bombarded by Stan, to give him the opportunity to let his talents shine. It was the Editor’s belief that if he let him illustrate the ideas into the characters, it would get Stan off his back, and possibly fail at Spider Man. To the Editor’s amazement, Spidey sold, and sold it did. After awhile Stan created more of his own special hero. And soon, along came The X-men, then Captain America. and so on, and so forth. And the rest, of course is history. I find that if you have a dream, then if you look at someone, such as Stan Lee. You can be sure that a dream is to be realized, through hard work, and perseverance. Web Site
