Ok people, more than a year later I will ask the same question...what do you guys do for a living?!? And do you use Photoshop @ your work? I do! I'm a graphic designer at the world largest Industrial auctioneer (whatever the hell that means).
Share it with us peeps!

SpamCam -
Did you know that the term 'spamming' came from the monty python sketch? Ill copy something I read a while ago:
"The word spam was used in this Monty Python sketch involving a couple in a shop attempting to order a meal. All items in the shop come with spam. During the entire sketch a group of vikings starts singing the refrain "Spam, spam, spam, spam...lovely spam...wonderful spam". The song gets progressively louder during the sketch.
The term spam made the jump to the electronic world through chatroom spam. In the early 1980's in People Link chatrooms it developed as a way to see off unwanted members from a forum of friends having a conversation. When a new member tried to hijack the conversation, the existing members of the room would begin typing the lines from the Monty Python sketch referred to above. The remaining members would sit back and laugh, or get a drink, but offer no further comment until the unwanted member left. being 'spammed out of a room' quickly made the jump to other online mediums, most notably MUDS where any unwanted communication was referred to as spamming and the first rules against SPAM were developed as early as 1981 'No Spamming Public Channels'.
Today, spam is used in almost every area to describe unwanted and annoying messages."
I'll bet you it's true.

PS (and like software) has been a hobby for me for the last 3 years, then I decided to make it a career. I am a Legal Assistant in real estate currently (pays the bills for now). I am going to the Art Institute for Graphic Design to change professions.

In my spare time I manage the website www.proofthatgodexists.org, and NO DP, I AM NOT TRYING TO START ANYTHING

curious how many of you guys use photoshop on a daily bases for work, and if you you guys have designing experiance. i'm wanting to get into design/multimedia/visual comminucations, webpage development, flash etc. wondering how you guys find time to mess around on this site.....just get a little background on your skills and what you do
"I'll tell you what Zoom, you show me yours first, then I'll show you mine, as we kids used to say!... You've only done 16 entries in 1.5 YEARS?????, and an empty Zoom profile makes me kinda wary of your post, that's for sure.
How about it?
