Man, just checking my email before bed, and came to read the rest of the thread and now I just can't get my head through the door!
Thank you Mike K, for more than I can say here!
Nrchy - OUCH! ;-)
Albert - High praise indeed coming from you. I am flattered. Thank you. Texas is to damn hot for me! Love to visit you sometime though when the mercury is down and the barbecue pit is fired-up! As you know, I've made my living primarily as a photographer for the past twenty years too. Graphic Design is really a spin-off of what I do in photo-illustration. It's been a blast to work with new tools though. Thank you for your compliments! It's truly amazing that innovations like those of Paul Klipsch and Peter Walker endure in a world racing forward at the speed of light. His (Paul's) achievements both in audio, and as an inventor, a philanthropist, and a man were, and remain, truly remarkable.
Swampwalker - glad the LCD brings out the details! Gotta git me one of those. I still use (and prefer) a CRT for image editing (also happens to be an NEC), but LCD's are MUCH easier on the eyes. Thanks!
Satch - I hope I'll be hired to do more ads like that. It sure is great to combine my passions. The next one I'm doing for Mike and Maureen will incorporate some of my photography as well. As far as envy; I know you and everyone else also have enviable qualities that I do not posess. Cherish the ones you have, I'm sure they are plentiful!
OK, gotta go take a pin to my baloon head so I can get to bed now! My wife doesn't like it when I get too cocky and the big head is a dead giveaway. You folks all made my day! It's really great to have the efforts so appreciated by the very audience I created the ad for. Thank you all again for taking the time to post!
All the best,
Marco
