Even with filters, you can still enhance your effect by drawing an outline and highlights on a blank layer.

Something special.

This is amazing, and perfect, and awful, and amazing.

My company has implemented a BYOD policy, which the iPad can comprise part of. With work apps it's basically completely deductible.

Salesforce has an application too, if that's your particular line of venom.

I'm not sure if this is relevant to you Zarban, but there's a Citrix app for the iPad, a Webmeeting app, you can get a digital version of RSA tokens, and it can hook up to your Exchange server.

You may want a Surface. Those things are like bricks.

Welcome aboard Dorian, it's nice for MasterZap to have another Swede to talk to  big_smile

Wait, rifftrax got people to give them $145,000?

Trey, I think DiF should do this to Lucasfilm if schmucks give you, say, half a million dollars.

I'm not sure if there's anything else to add to this conversation; the buggy whips are cheaper o'er seas.

Unless there's a clear differentiator in quality, cost is going to win out. Off the shelf solutions get better every day, and millions of hungry grads hit the streets each year, full of enthusiasm and utterly naive.

It will take paying customers demanding change to make a difference, and this is terrible. Despite making good money in corporate-land, all I really want to do is make lightsabers, grade, and give inanimate objects life. And it seems this is never going to happen, if I want to support my family by doing so.

Not sure how I've managed it, but I've built a Pandora station thingy that actually plays music I like.

I can't do top 5's, but I can do 9 that I like, which have made an impact (and that's culling the list a lot).

In alphabetical order.

Dizzee Rascal
Boy In Da Corner

Dizzee when fresh and pre-commercial, was fucking ground breaking. Boy in Da Corner, and his next 2 albums, largely defined Grime.

Imogen Heap
Ellipse

Self produced and perfectly formed, some of Imogen's best work.

Nine Inch Nails
Further Down the Spiral

This remix (although it's so much more than that) of Downward Spiral is quite simply one of the most important musical events that ever happened to me. This track, At the Heart of it All, should be listened to in the dark.

Patrick Wolf
The Bachelor

I'm not quite sure how I stumbled across Patrick Wolf, but I'm deeply pleased that I did.

Pop Will Eat Itself
Dos Dedos Mis Amigos

PWEI is critical to the early industrial scene, and this is probably their most commercially successful album. Progenitor to much of the music that shaped my troubled teenage years, I remember listening to their stuff in goth and industrial clubs when I was very underage.

Pulp
This is Hardcore

Pulp. This is one of their best albums, although I don't think it's the most popular. Lyrics, stripped back arrangements, pure fucking gold.

Shiny Toy Guns
Season of Poison

STG's middle album, and really the only one that I enjoy. This was a period of transition for the band - they had changed their line up and went in a very different direction. The album didn't sell, and they've reverted to their more mainstream sound and original female vocalist. Season of Poison stands out in the iTunes library, and it's worth listening to.

These New Puritans
Beat Pyramid

I'm not sure how to sort These New Puritans, or why I like their work so much, but every single thing they do I can't get enough of.

VAST
Visual Audio Sensory Theatre

VAST is ... difficult, and tied up with an ex, and memory, and stuff.
This first album still stands out as a brilliant piece of work, and I can listen to it again without being reminded of the past.
