By me :)

That is a picture of old Zimbabwe or Rhodesia from the 1890's.
I am a master Photoshop artist.

In 1890, it would have been Rhodesia.

that's really good. but how do you know the one dude's pants weren't actually pink instead of white?

Its a pole i think :)

Would you wear pink pants while you were living in Rhodesia?

In 1890 wasn't everything either dingy gray or brown? They didn't have Tide (TM) back then.

Would you wear pink pants while you were living in Rhodesia?

maybe if i was in a bossa nova band. was bossa nova around aback then? or maybe if i was sonny crockett.

Ignore the critics, Max. You did a very nice job. :) I'd give you the "beer" cheer, but you're too young to drink and I think that would be inappropriate. So, I'm giving you :D :D :D instead! ;)

Max...
I think Ted Turner is looking to hire you!!

It's a good skill to have. It was very rewarding to rescue a lot of our old family photos, and I had a tremendous amount of fun doing it. And not just the old, torn up, grainy black+white ones... even the color snapshots from just 20-30 years ago, just color correcting them made a huge difference.

Whos Ted Turner?

Check about the middle of the business activities section...

So why would he be looking to hire me?

It's a joke - when he bought out catalogs of old films, Ted Turner started to convert old black & white movies to colorized versions. It was hotly debated at the time and he took a lot of heat for "ruining" films that should have been kept as they were created.

he might want to hire you to help the braves, though.

Hey Max.....you seem to be good with color. Do you do hair? If so, you're hired.

So why would he be looking to hire me?
Because he was the main person who started colorizing b&w pictures...he might be looking for someone with your talent!!
Actually..I am not sure he is doing that any more....

Hey Max.....you seem to be good with color. Do you do hair? If so, you're hired.
Yes I do hair. Finished a photoshop Project with some hairy lady just yesterday lol :lol:

Can I be the shampoo boy??? :)

Hey max instead of doing this why don't you go read a book?

I've got a friend in Boulder that can hire you for $15/hour to retouch photo's of quilts. He actually offered it to me but I told him that unless he was also willing to give me free room and board and a car, the cost of living difference wasn't that extreme.

Yes, he works for a company that publishes a quilting magazing. We never tire of making fun of him for this.

He's 13 years old, and you're insulting him, where does that leave you.

It's obvious your not reading any books either.
