'Cause I'm a sheep meme

Because [livejournal.com profile] lowriseflare is my beta wingman and an all around awesome person, I wanna be just like her. So I can't resist posting this meme.

Ask me my top five [whatevers]. Any top fives. And I'll answer them all in a new post.

Also, it will be a good way to avoid writing the challenge fics I should be working on, right? Hee hee. *headdeskslam*

ETA -- Two Things: 1) Hillary Clinton rocks. I just watched a half hour interview of her with Fareed Zakaria and almost cried. She's brilliant and articulate and intelligent and awesome and incapable of being ambushed and just! Ahem. 2) I will actually probably just answer the fives in a response, because I don't want to spam everybody if I do manage to get a challenge fic done here or there. Heh. Big if.

You're very welcome. :) I haven't tried PS Elements, but I think these tutorials can be helpful even if you don't follow them exactly.

One of the things I love about PS is how you can brighten a picture, taking it from barely visible to highly cool-looking. However, the tutorial people obviously know how to do this much better than I do!
I know! I'm always amazed at what you can achieve with that program. I wish I was as skilled and creative as the tutorial people. Maybe if I have enough good caps to practice on next year... ;)

By the way, here's another tutorial I tried yesterday:

Pretty neat, right? :)

Wow. Yeah that is pretty neat. I can't wait to have some time to fool around with it. Thanks so much for all the links! I'll cross my fingers that I can understand the instructions when I get to them.
