Updated my homepage photo!

Wrestled with Photoshop for an hour or two, and managed to get a new photo of myself onto my homepage.  Artistically, I don’t like it nearly as much – the other one had a lot more orange in it and matched the text a lot better, plus had more “energy” – but it does save me from the embarrassment of having a homepage photo that’s 13 years out of date (!).  Homepage photos should not be old enough to bear children.  LOL

Anyway, I may change the photo out in the near future, but that’s what it is for now.

Photoshop is interesting and extremely complex – I am tempted to buy a book on it and learn how to use it properly, but I should live so long as to do everything that looks interesting.  Dammitall, life is too short.  And there aren’t enough hours in a day.  (And what’s with this “sleep” thing, anyway?)

    Looks nice. If you’re going to redo it, I’d suggest getting something with a macro lens so you come out nice and SHARP. Also, I like GIMP but I’m sure Mike can evangelize that. 🙂

    Cheers,
