Perhaps practicing on a "Etch A Sketch" (an amazing new kind of technology type Thing-a-ma-Jig)
will help or perhaps an injection of Walt Disney's stem cells?

you can get a blank pad of paper & draw stick figures on each page till you get a flip cartoon
yes I know, no need to thank me, you are welcomed!

Crayons would be a lot better than this fking PC shit they gave GROG to work on. Today was a crappy-assed day, as you can tell. The keys are different compared to the Mac, and spent half the time trying to figure out how to get the stupid machine to do what I want. Felt good about the drawings, but got screwed up SO many times by the stupid machine. Technology . FK IT!

GROG still doesn't know enough about Photoshop to to be as fast as GROG need to be for this damned job.

Be unemployed again next week probably.

Now gotta go to GROG' other job-- cleaning damned Ape mugs.

LOL Grog, I feel kinda the same way about Macs. I use a PC at home for graphic design and stuff, I am sure I probably don't know as much as you but I am willing to try and help if you need it. I know the difference between Macs and PC's is pretty confusing. Hope things go better for you tomorrow. :)

Was at work until midnight last night,and will probably have to work all weekend. May have to farm out the glazing on the Goin' Primitive mugs to get 'em finished in time if GROG have to work every weekend. Probably have to skip Tiki Oaisis to get stuff glazed and fired if GROG do it GROG self.

Ape mug news: GROG trying to make a silicone mask tonight to mask off the ape from the fez so GROG can apply underglaze on the greenware, so if it works, it should speed up the process. Wish GROG luck. Lots of kiln firing in august and September. Need a bigger kiln.
