The BS Blog http://brandon.sheley.org my life, my wife and my experiences online by Brandon Sheley Mon, 01 Dec 2008 18:38:27 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 en vBulletinSetup is Releasing Photoshop Tutorials http://brandon.sheley.org/vbulletinsetup-releasing-photoshop-tutorials/ http://brandon.sheley.org/vbulletinsetup-releasing-photoshop-tutorials/#comments Mon, 01 Dec 2008 18:36:41 +0000 Brandon http://brandon.sheley.org/?p=87 I’ve been able to find a guy who can do great Photoshop Tutorials for me over the last few months. It’s been a great addition to my forum, it was lacking some quality graphics content. Here is a book that will teach you how to use photoshop in a day.

Are you confused by most manuals when learning Photoshop?
Do you get frustrated by messy instructions?
Does more jargon make you want to give up?

Photoshop In A Day will save you time and save you effort.
At last, a clear and simple way of learning Photoshop.

You will be able to start immediately with the easy-to-follow tutorials.
The step-by-step instructions give faster learning and more progress.

Imagine working on genuine Photoshop projects within 15 minutes.

Correcting and improving your own photographs can begin in the shortest possible time.

I’ll list off some of the recent photoshop tutorials that I’ve posted in the forum. We are always looking for more, so if you are one of the lucky people to get a hold of this book, please share with us what you’ve done with your new talents.

It’s a cool job, I think I’ll like it for a while. I’m part of the Tech Support team that helps all the associates and store clerks in the stores if their networks break down. I pretty much have 100 questions that will be asked, ranging from the fix being rebooting the modem, to replacing files on their scanners. I’m able to remote into to the back office PC’s and the registers of over 4400 stores across the US and Canada. I was in training all week and expect to be in training for the next week if not two. I think I’m ready for my own computer and to get setup on my own, but I guess some more traning can’t hurt. The funny thing is, the girl that is training me was born on the exact same day as me..lol She’s a cool gal, and I’m glad she is the one training me. She is fast and it seems like she does everything correct.. so it would be better then learning from someone that has shortcuts….lol

Anyways, just wanted to post an update about the job, we got the crib up and have a slideshow setup, but it wouldn’t post correctly on the baby blog. As soon as I get that figured out, you all will have pics of the babies room so far.

later

Alissa had her sonogram this morning and I got my first views of the baby. We have some images that I’ll scan, but I don’t think my printer is even hooked up. I’ll try to get that all setup this week and we can update the baby post with the new images. This picture I took with my phone and had posted it on facebook, Within minutes I had a few people posting congrats. :)

I’m just happy everything looks healthy, heart and brain, kidneys all looked good bone structure as well :)

Now we can at least let everyone know what to buy, we’ve had so much support and several of the family members have already been gathering toys, outfits and stuff.. It’s been great :D

]]> http://brandon.sheley.org/found-out-its-a-boy-today/feed/ It’s been a busy few weeks http://brandon.sheley.org/its-been-a-busy-few-weeks/ http://brandon.sheley.org/its-been-a-busy-few-weeks/#comments Sat, 13 Sep 2008 18:36:00 +0000 Brandon http://brandon.sheley.org/?p=81 Alissa and I went out to Scott City 2 weeks ago for a Sheley family reunion. Hopefully I’ll get some of the pictures up, I have 120 or so of them, but I wouldn’t want to post all of them for the world to see.

It was really good to see everyone, Scott City was real windy, I mean REAL windy.. It’s crazy how windy it was.

Life has been good at the house, we are just about ready for a cookout that all our friends can come over and see the place. It’s been raining a lot the last couple days, so I’ll need to wait for the grass to dry to get the yard in shape.

We are heading off to a wedding tonight, I might have a drink or two, but I’ll have to drive home so not many for me.

I still haven’t had time to get the twitter application up, it’s still on the list tho :D

Thanks for reading everyone, have a good weekend

I’m going to disable the twitter post, it’s taken over my blog!

I just don’t post in the blog enough, but I do post a few twitter post a day.

If you want to follow me, check this out

I’ll see if I can get a widget on the sidebar so you can follow, but it wont overtake my blog. If it all works out, I’ll do the same for Alissa’s
