Title: New Member from So. Alabama
Post by: Lb69 on February 05, 2015, 12:48:21 PM
Hi everyone, Larry here from Alabama. I learned of this site through Photoshop Gurus forum. I have already spotted one of my colleagues from there. I am more or less retired from the business world so I have a good bit of time for my other interests. I love Photoshop and using it for restorations. Always happy to assist when there is a need. Looking forward to working with some photos and you guys and girls.  :)

Welcome Larry to the Forum from Kansas. I too learned Photoshop from the Gurus forum and from Katrin Eismann's books. A lot of our volunteers came to us through NAPP and Matt Kloskowki's photo restoration classes at Photoshop World. I think you will really enjoy it here and hope to see you on the Forum again and if ever you have the chance come join us on a copy run. There you will get to meet the faces behind the photos we restore.

Not sure who one of your colleagues is, but one of our top restorers and board member Kiska Moore is from Alabama.

Welcome from Michigan Larry,

I also learned restoring from Katrin Eismann's Books and the online tutorials.  I also learned about OPR from the same books.  Restoring gives a lot of personal satisfaction.  Hope to see you on the Forum more.  This is the place to give and get restoring tips.

Thanks for the warm welcome (although I suspect it's not so warm in Michigan). My colleague I spoke of is from England but doesn't appear to be too active. I will encourage him to participate more.
Not to promote PS Gurus (I am a Mod there) if your not a member, check it out. It has 40,000 members now and lots of very competent artists and PS users.
