It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything substantial here. Busyness has ensued, and this blog has taken a back seat. Needing a break from the routine, I decided to snap a photo and do some Photoshop work for a change, which I do really enjoy. I walk by this place every day, but I only noticed the picturesque nature of the scene this week. So I brought my camera with me the next day, snapped a few shots, did a little rubber stamping, sharpening and burning and viola! I thought about going black and white, but then all the color of the brick and the rose bushes would have been lost.

DesignMyRoom won a Limelight Award in the Best User Defined Experience category at the ad:tech awards ceremony last night. It was also recently selected as as an Official Honoree for the Lifestyle category in The 12^th Annual Webby Awards. I’m pretty excited as it’s the first time I’ve seen something I’ve been involved with at work make a running for some awards. Kudos to my teammates at andCulture for a job well done!

I’ve signed up with eleven2 Hosting and will soon be saying goodbye to Go Daddy. Now begins the hopefully non painstaking process of moving everything over to the new host. Fortunately my site is small and my miniscule reader-base probably won’t care if things go down or get messed up!
