This is my first SSD layout and first layout using photoshop!! Before then, I had scrapped for a few months using Memory Mixer, haha. (summer of 2007)
And today...
I remember how frustrated I was with photoshop but had to get this page done for an SSD challenge, haha. It took me like 3 hours to do... today I can do a page in 25 minutes, less if I focus. Also shadowing and designing rules.
ETA - it makes me sick that my sister-in-law STILL looks like that... haha. She is going to be 30 this year and still looks 18.
