…new wallpapers! I installed the trial version of Photoshop CS6 Extended on the new laptop and decided to play around with the 3D features. Naturally these graphics had to include Richard Armitage in some way, shape or form. The end product is so far off from what I originally set out to make, but that’s how creativity works for me.
Everyone remembers those wooden letter blocks from their childhood, right? I actually think I still have mine somewhere. All I can say is that they would have been even better if they had looked like this! 😉
Unfortunately the laptop isn’t equipped to run the 3D features very well, which means that Photoshop crashed on me repeatedly. At one point I ended up with wooden blocks hovering all over the place. At first I found it frustrating, but later I thought it was pretty cool looking. So after I finally got the pyramid of blocks all put together, I went back and intentionally made the blocks float at funky angles. It’s silly, but I like it! 🙂
Me, My Thoughts, and Richard Armitage 
AdoRAble! So glad to see you are up and running again, my dear. 😀 And I fondly remember my alphabet blocks, too.
Thanks, Angie. I just realized I hadn’t responded to comments on this post…got a little sidetracked. I’m glad to be up and running again! It’s kind of crazy how attached I am to a 5 pound piece of equipment.
My husband has started referring to my new, smarter smartphone as my prosthetic hand, so you’re not alone 🙂
That happens to me, too, re getting sidetracked. Yeah, Benny has gently suggested I may be attached at the hip to my laptop (would that make it a hiptop?!)
I’m glad to see you’re havong fun, and back in the saddle,
Thanks, Leigh.
These are very fun 🙂 “yay” to the new laptop!
Thanks, Obscura! I had fun making them and definitely “yay” to the new laptop!!!
Looking good, Jas!!! Hope you enjoy the new laptop 🙂
Thanks Itsy! Once I got Windows 8 to look more like 7 things have been going more smoothly.
