Dan Stevers - AE lifesaver & Flickr Group

Dan Stevers is a great video tutorial guy! I've learned a lot from watching the few tutorials he has on his website. I hadn't touched Adobe After Effects since college (8 years ago) but after watching his tutorials, I was able to make something decent on my first try without spending two weeks on it. I'm so thankful for people who share their talents to further God's kingdom. Speaking of that...

I've also been spending some time on Flickr with The Church Marketing Lab group. The design above is one from that group. I have yet to submit anything I've done to the group because there's such a lag between when you post something for critique and when someone actually takes a look at your work and offers suggestions - though soon I may start using that as a way to get some feedback on my work. I thought when they hired the "media director" that he would be a sounding board for me, but things haven't worked out quite like that.

Freelance Design: Selena Sews

Proofs with the two I liked most at the top... This is the one she chose - definitely my favorite - although she chose the one with the sewing machine for a larger sign she was going to do cut vinyl for. I'm looking forward to seeing these in action. A talented friend asked me to help her with some designs for craft bag tags. If you're interested in seeing some of her side-hustle goods, check out her facebook page .

Just do something!

I'm so tired of hearing about how politicians need to "compromise" and do what that particular politician wants them to do. I'm tired of those same politicians saying that there needs to be tolerance when they're the most intolerant people in the universe. This debt problem that our government has is a ridiculous problem. Anyone in his or her right mind wouldn't purposely spend more than they took in OR pay $1400 for a hammer that cost $8.50 at the hardware store OR award billions of dollars (they'd have to borrow from a foreign country) to someone to study the effects of methane on ants or some other foolish thing. If I could speak with the leaders in congress and the house right now, and knew that what I said would make a dent in their stiff-necked stances, I'd let them know in no uncertain terms that they were all fired and that we're starting over. Pay off the debt we have so we won't be in such a bind, get rid of welfare (cause since t...
