Hi puppylove,

I think I read in one of your post that you mentioned there is a good photoshop class? Can furbish me with more details? Cos all the photos I've posted so far are not photo enhanced (film photography style), was chatting with your hubby and he did recommend photoshop for the detailed editting. (he also gave me a run thru in PS elements but the s/w is not thorough enough)

I do agree in your statement that Digital Photography is 50% photo, 50% editting, so wish to learn more about photo editting. TIA for the info.

 

[brenwjwang]

I reckoned I leave the pro work to the professionals la.. heehee.. here's my giam chai one.. Hope to put some smiles on mummies' faces when they start work tmr on a Monday!
P/S: June, Sorry I didn't manage to get your son's name.. pls furnish and I'll add..

<font color="0000ff">brenda</font>,
Dun paiseh leh... your montages are very well done! Diff software, diff styles lah. Desmond has been doing montages for Trinity since she was born. He just shun4shou3qian1yang2 -'ka-po' all the 'smiling' photos u've collected fr the other mummies to create his own for our album!

We use Photoshop so got more features to play w.

Pls keep ur fun projects going!

U always send us scrambling to find suitable photos for ur themes. Can't wait to c your NAKEDishes one! oh, I haven't given u Trinity's sexy photo!!

Juz taken this morning during bathtime, kekeke... Wait for me hor!

<font color="0000ff">phoebe</font>,
Pls check email

 

[puppylove]

<font color="0000ff">daisybuttons</font>,
pls check ur sms & email.

Hv u tried the 'Flickr Uploadr'? it gives u the option to auto-reduce ur pic/file size b4 uploading. Can't avoid the monthly limit, but at least by reducing file size, u can upload more loh.

If u dun hv Flickr Uploadr, u can download fr here: http://www.flickr.com/tools/ (select: Flickr Uploadr for Windows XP, 2000, ME and 98)

<font color="0000ff">E-ling</font>,
You have nice eyes leh.. and yupz, i agree with all mummies here that you should have been a model.. try for young mom's contest this Mother's Day! we sure support!

<font color="0000ff">Ling</font>,
nice to meet you finally & i really love Sophie's dress too! And the sling she iz in.. dun worry! Jadelle is a very light sleeper too..

<font color="0000ff">Brenda</font>,
Nice to catch you again & cheery Arianne.. and forget the French.. tell them we are in Singapore and we don't call our Michaels as "Michelle" Haha!

<font color="0000ff">Daisybuttons</font>,
thks for hosting us and tolerating with the mess and clean up.. i hope everything is ok with your chair.. are the seat covers removable? if can, gotta take out and soak.. otherwise, i have seen those stain remover, spray on type from Isetan/ cold storage/ homefix store..

BTW, we love your place & Jovann's room!

And I think you look as pretty as pre pregnancy leh! *took a peek @ your wedding photos in the living room!*

<font color="0000ff">Phoebe</font>,
Javier must be so happy & blur by all the pretty babes! keke..BTW, i have to TT to you on Wednesday liaoz.. cos DBS dun allow funds transfer at this timing..

and I have 3 days of training, so, hope i can squeeze out the time to TT over to you!

it was fun to meet you pre & post delivery! And I do love your new haircut, though i thought it was a waste. You hair was sp. And yes, i lost all my 16kg gained.. plus 2 more! I think it must be the sleepless nights as Jadelle still insist on night feeds..

[joon]

to all the photographer-moms-and dads... <font color="ff0000"><font size="+1">GREAT JOB!</font></font>

daisybuttons,
ur bb dialogues are so funny! they are all perfect for the pictures. well done! u shld put all that on ur blog

sam,
u know the photo with clarisse (is it her?), jovann and javier (clarisse sleeping on jovann's shoulder) gave me a fright coz i was wondering "who is that SO BIG, can sit 3 bbs on his lap???" it's ur couch! coz the 2 arms by the side really made it look like a person la!!

puppylove,
i want to learn PS too! maybe Desmond can start a PS class for sept mommies/daddies! hahahahahaha

i tried my useless hand at photo-editing with disastrous results. almost edited mt left eye away (trying to get rid of the eyebags!!) and PF (my hb) had a pink square on his forehead coz i accidentally 'pasted' it there. terrible.

eling,
wow! u are one hot mama! even though i haven't met u yet, but i believe all the mommies and the compliments!!

doreen,
poor damien!

DN's sick too! his cough is getting more and more phlegm-y and his runny nose is getting worse too. it's like a river!!! i hope it doesn't get worse, otherwise gotta bring him to the PD again. PD said if it gets worse, might be bronchitis. looks like both our bbs on home quarantine! haha

hope damien recovers soon!

 

[wei_kuan]

brenda,
ur artwok is so nice. u using photoshop?

 

[crystallized]

daisybuttons!
the captions were hilarious!!!

i love the 3 boys so kpo craning their necks to check out the girls!

Arianne's lovely dress looks so pretty so her!!!!

yah hor, why Jovann & Arianne's height differs so much?

hahahahahahahahah! Enzo & Jovann tugging poor Arianne's dress? thats so funny!!!

oh dear, kena curry stains on the dining chairs?

i hope i wasnt the one. i only ate the curry at the end & carried it when i move ard, so dun think i spilled.

Selina
tt naughty boy so anti-social tt day man! dun wanna smile and play wif the other babies and i had to carry him most times. yah sam managed to capture him lookinghappy in the bumbo but actually i think he din like it.

brenda
the montage is great! this page rocks! i am gonna email my hb this pg so he can check his son out!

 

[emmasharapova]

crystallized... yeah.. it was darn farni.. we had such a great laff that enzo got a shock one he flipped on top of arienne that he starting screaming!!! lol....

brenda... good job with the montages babe... what's the next theme??? hehe...

 

[joon]

crystallised,
u said it! <font color="ff0000"><font size="+1">This page ROCKS big time!</font></font>

emma,
<font color="119911">I SAW ENZO ON TV!!!!!</font>
wah! i kept telling my dad, "Seethatbabyseethatbabyseethatbaby???? That's my friend's baby!!!!!" haha, didn't tell him that i haven't even met u yet. so how? is he leading with the votes???

brenda,
i have a humble suggestion for the next theme. what about a "Newborn - Oldborn" montage? (newborn pics against current bb pics) coz i was looking through DN's pics and golly! HAS HE CHANGED!

 

[joon]

Like so!

 

[joon]

hmmm... quite quiet huh? i think all of u on ur way to work... haven't reach office yet?

[daisybuttons]

<font color="0000ff">One Lazy Sunday Afternoon, 2 boys were relaxing at home reading the day's headlines, sharing a tall <font color="ff6000">Milk</font> Latte between them. Life is good.</font>

<font color="ff0000">Then in strolled a girl, pretty in pink. All attempts at trivial pursuits abandoned, the boys goggled unabashedly at her</font>
<font color="0000ff">Enzo</font> : *Utterly distracted* Wee woooo whee! chio babe! Jovann, check her out. Shall we date her?"

<font color="0000ff">So it happens that they went to watch a scary movie - <font color="ff0000">The Lost Bumbosaurus</font>. As you guessed it, it was the boys' naughty idea. It went well to begin with.</font>

<font color="ff0000">Then something scared Arianne and she started crying</font>
<font color="0000ff">Jovann</font> : *with chivalry* My lady, did that scare you? May I hold thy fair hands and thou shall be comforted"
<font color="0000ff">Enzo</font> : FLIRT...

<font color="ff0000">The Clock strike 12. The curtains came down and the little princess dissappeared in a puff of smoke, leaving behind Miss Bola.</font>
<font color="0000ff">Enzo</font> : *enraged* Look what you did,Jovann!!!
<font color="0000ff">Jovann</font> : Uh Oh.

[fairysnowberry]

Hihi sorry to intrude...

I just wanna find out if there's anyone interested in buying a tube of Desitin Original Diaper Rash Ointment from me? I bought too many tubes that's why i'm selling 1 off. It's a brand new, unopened tube (w packaging intact) and the size is 4OZ(113g). Exp date is Apr 2009.

As as as i know, the Desitins sold in SG pharmacies are of 2OZ size. There are no 4OZ sized tubes sold locally.

The price i'm selling at is $12.

Pls email me quickly at [email protected] if interested.

You can find out more about Desitin creams from this website.

Thank you. Cheers
