Manipulating Photoshop

Lets face it, ProBlogReviews is not graphics intensive. That is due mostly to my lack of knowledge using such programs as Photoshop, Gimp, and the like. I did visit a blog that has potential tohelp anyone become better at manipulating Photoshop. It is Graphic-Identity, This blog is full of tutorials and tips for anyone with the need to learn and while I still have a certain fear of Photoshop, I do know where to turn if I ever need to learn it. I would recommend this blog to anyone that is into Graphic Design, whether it be for web sites, T-shirt printing, or just as a way to enhance their jpgs.

Caricatures

I recently posted a blog review of mom2my6pack and I really enjoyed her blog. It has changed some since that review. It has added a caricature of Dawn and her family that is amazing in detail. Now, I have the privilege of posting a review for the very blog written by the artist that drew that caricature. Rick Green is the artists name and Organized Doodles is his blog. Rick has an awesome talent in his drawings and his blog is amazingly well written. If the words don't capture your attention , the caricatures will. I feel honored to have been given the chance to review his work.

This next blog I am going to review is just AWESOME. There is no other word to describe Contestu. I was amazed by all the online contests I had never heard of but want to enter.

Now that everyone has been informed, I must go, there is money to be won.

Work From Home

I will be honest, I have fallen behind schedule on posting reviews as many more people have started to request them. I will find time to eventually get to everyone and I am going straight down the list as they come in so if you don't see your review today, just keep checking back. It is coming. When I first saw the name of this next blog I thought oh no, not another Work From Home blog, but after visiting the site I understand that I was being pre-judgemental . The blog is well written and covers areas I have not seen mentioned on any other work from home blog. It even goes into details about AdBrites new full page ad for the internet. This blog is a welcome break from all the copycat blogs that simply say put up a website and cover it with ads. I will be visiting it again, hope to see you there.

Niche Finding Tool

I review a lot of blogs, some good some bad and what I tend to notice about the bad ones are they have no originality when it came time to pick their niche. This new niche finding tool is awesome, it will help you locate a niche that is not the same as everyone else. Lets face it, if there are fifty gazillion blogs all telling us how to make money on the internet, why would we need one more? The more sites there are similar to yours, the more competition you have and that leads to less money for you. As a blog reviewer I would love to see a greater variety of blogs come my way as well. I encourage anyone that has been having trouble finding their perfect niche to check out the niche finding tool.

What Makes A Habit?

In his blog, Karol Krizka has a lot of interesting things to say about Habits and the way they can be useful such as in good study habits or not so useful if your habit is procrastination. He discusses how good habits are nothing more than willpower being exercised over a given amount of time until it becomes almost second nature to do what it is you need to do and less likely to put that off due to the "any excuse will work" monster that hides inside us all waiting for a chance to make us form bad habits versus good. To read more about building habits, I encourage you to visit his blog.
