I was trying to find a CMYK formula for flesh tones.  There didn’t seem to be anything online.  I came up with these values on my own C = 0 M= 22 Y = 24 K = 8 Try it as see if you like it.

Some friends of mine just went live with a business I think is pretty cool.  Box Office Pop offers low cost affordable posters for High School musicals and plays.  I was able to help out with some aspects of their web design.  You should check it out. I love this poster they designed for The [...]

We really enjoyed the first Snow Day at the Great Park in 2009. So we packed up the family to enjoy the same event again this year. Unfortunately it was a bust. There were way more people than last year, it seemed to be double. In addition there seemed to be …
