I Love Photoshop

I couldn’t post these till now.

Last week, Kurt, Kembe and I counted down for Mike’s arrival. We couldn’t wait for him to get here. We decided to take pictures and "white out" where he SHOULD have been with us. It was our way of letting him know we were anxiously awaiting his arrival… and that he belongs with us on our team.

We took pictures (with Aaron Soule as the stunt double) and I traced Aaron’s outline to make it "Mike".

Here are the finals (you can click on them to enlarge):

In order from left to right, top to bottom:

Mike in his office
Student Ministries Staff Meeting
Storage Closet that needs cleaning
Reserved Parking for Youth Pastors
At Starbucks
Kurt & Mike in the loo (weird… I know)
At the Watercooler (no one really does this, do they?)
Out in the field – Westview HS

It’s important to help make co-workers needed and appreciated.

How do you do that with/for your staff?

Fake it till you make it, right?

Need A New Banner

I was thinking something festive for a new banner. Jocelyn has such a sweet Christmas-y feel to hers… I wanted to do the same, so I sat down in front of LULU and opened up Adobe Photoshop.

That was an hour ago.

I couldn’t pull out anything creative so I started reading other people’s blogs. I remembered how many cutie pictures Allison had on her blog, so I took a few pictures from her site just for fun. The next thing you know… I created a new banner for Jay and posted it up for him.

At least I got a banner done… even though it wasn’t for myself.

BTW… I don’t know why… but I have access to many of my friend’s blogs. Some would call me a bit of a "prankster" and when I think about it, I could actually do some serious damage on some of their blogs. But blogs are the ONE thing I won’t ever mess around with. Don’t know why that is… that’s just something I feel strongly about.

That doesn’t mean I won’t dream about it though.

Merry Christmas, Jay, and Happy New Banner.
