How was the T1i? Are there any flickr uses that...
I was super uber excited when I got it. It was a lovely camera and a HUGE step from my Rebel XT. Affordable and the picture quality was fantastic.
I did most of this page and back with the T1i: http://www.flickr.com/photos/likedaffodils/page10/
And here are a few users: http://www.flickr.com/photos/cararosephotos/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/esparist/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/beth19/

I’ve been having quite a difficult time with it too. It’s slowly becoming an every other day project :/ I hope to get back on track soon but I think all this stress has been giving me migraines daily.
I always felt I was disappointing people if I didn’t post everyday. But I think I get more disappointed posting someone I can’t stand looking at.
But I digress, I get a lot...

If I use a texture I post credit in the tags. See here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/likedaffodils/5365688854/
I’ll be happy to post more links though if you find that helpful :)

should i get the rebel xsi?
I’ve never used the xsi. I’ve owned the Rebel xt, t1i, 7d, and 5d Mark ii.
All of the Rebel series are brilliant cameras. Perfect first dslrs. They are affordable and the overall quality is fantastic. You can’t really go wrong with a Canon.
A few flickrites I know use this camera: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sealegssnapshots/5396407187/...

what's life about?
However trite and contrived this will sound, I think life is for living to better yourself and others. To love and be loved. To learn and to teach.

Photoshop :) It’s just a matter of putting an image on top of another image using layers. Then you can play with opacity and blending modes to get it the way you want.
You need to upload to a site like imageshack or photobucket. Then you just need to paste a link back with the <a href=”insertimagecodehere”> </a>code. I use photobucket. It already provides the...

what is a watermark good for ?
Watermarks are a good way to protect your work against theft. I personally do not use them, unless the work it commissioned: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=187545261270068&set=a.187545254603402.43247.152280324796562#!/album.php?aid=37744&id=152280324796562
to protect my profit.
I feel they often detract from the photo. And if people have their heart set on stealing, they will...

how do you create layer masks?

It’s a really great feature. I use Photoshop CS5 and that is where it is located. I don’t think Photoshop Elements comes equiped with layer masks or curves.

Swimmingly :)
I never use the built in flash so it really doesn’t bother me. I like natural light. In really sticky situation I have 2 umbrella lights and a speedlite 430x.
I like the focus points better on the 7d but most of the features are the same and they are similar as to where the buttons are located. It’ll take some getting used to but the full sensor makes it completely and...

is it all color curves that you edit?
I usually expand the frame using layer masks. Then a do a few curves, maybe add a solid color layer or two. Sometimes I add a texture.

Well, if there is one I don’t know about it. Which of course, isn’t saying much because I’m not very computer savvy.
The way I figure it, people are going to steal and will go to great lengths to do so. They will edit out watermarks, they will make up elaborate stories about how they felt or who their friend in the picture is when it isn’t even theirs.
They’ll get...

have you ever sold prints to someone? A few people...
I have indeed sold prints. It’ll probably be best to set up a paypal account. You should figure out how much it is to print the photos then what sort of profit margin you are looking for. I sell mine for:
4x6: $4.00
5x7: $6.00
8x10: $10.00
As some of my photos come square:
5x5: $4.00
8x8 $6.00
10x10: $10.00

your work is CRAZY good. end of discussion.
Thank you that means the world to me. I’m completely happy and welcoming of criticism, as long as it is constructive and helps me learn and grow as a photographer.
To me, that just felt like kicking a girl when they are down.

I’m having kind of a bad week with work and life and am fairly depressed. I am well aware of the state of my work lately. I’m having a creative dryspell and am completely out of concepts. I guess it will get that way with a 365. Having to create EVERY SINGLE DAY you do have your bad weeks.
But the joy of the 365 is you have 365 days to try new things and there is always tomorrow.
