A little round up of stuff I’ve come across today. WordPress is still determined to make me as cross as possible, so please excuse the dots. I’m not allowed, apparently, to have empty lines.

Have a fun day, what ever you choose to do.

Based in the UK, TipSquirrel has what some have described as an 'unnatural obsession' with Photoshop. Although he spends his day either in Photoshop, reading about Photoshop or watching Photoshop Podcasts he's still not able to cobble together a reasonable tutorial himself. Fortunately, he has a talent for persuading very clever and articulate people to do that on his website. An avid Twitter fan TipSquirrel can often be found sharing links from TipSquirrel.com and other sites. This account also has him jibbering away about tea, scones, biscuits and anything else that randomly pops into his tiny little brain. For pure Photoshop links, TipSquirrel has a second Twitter account, Photoshop_nut. TipSquirrel is afraid of crows.
