“Creativity is inventing, experimenting, growing, taking risks,
breaking rules, making mistakes and having fun” — Mary Lou Cook

Start a FREE Blog for fun, to share your hobbies, or use as part of your business marketing... My favourite place to create a quick and easy Blog is Blogger at www.blogger.com. You may be able to start your blog within a couple of hours, or it may take a couple of weeks to finalise your design and create some Posts.
These are roughly the steps to publish your Blog on Blogger:
  • Sign in to Blogger
  • Choose your Blog address
  • Choose a Theme
  • Create some Blog Posts
  • Create some Blog static Pages
  • Adjust your Theme
  • Adjust the Blog Layout
  • Adjust your Sidebar
  • Adjust your Blog Settings
  • Preview and check your Blog
  • Publish your Blog online
  • Let everyone know where to find your Blog
  • Have a Blog Launch party!

Fixing up Photos

Photo Editing Whangārei
“The art of photography is all about directing the attention of the viewer.” ― Steven Pinker
There are many different photo editors that can help you fix your photos. My normal favourite is Adobe Photoshop but when I'm out & about & need to do some quick photo editing online I like to use Pixlr. Pixlr offers a wide range of photo editing options, it's available online (with no need to sign in), & it's completely FREE.
Some of the photo fixing I do with Pixlr includes:
  • Adjust a photo that is too dark or too light
  • Adjust the colours if it's too pale or the colours are not quite right
  • Crop off any unwanted areas
  • Remove any marks, scratches, or unwanted items
  • Add in any bits from other photos
  • Straighten the photo if it needs it
  • Sharpen or Blur areas of the photo
  • Add some text if needed
To try out Pixlr go to pixlr.com

Business Cards Whangārei
“Design is thinking made visual.” – Saul Bass
Business cards are easy, cheap, & fun to have. Print a business card as a tiny portfolio, a quirky invite, a list of all your contact details for family & friends, or as a mini business promo. The most difficult part of a business card is deciding on a design! Luckily there are many online resources that can help get you started to create your perfect business card design.
1. Check out some Business Card websites:
  • www.carddsgn.com
  • cardview.net
  • www.cardnerd.com
2. Make your own Business Card design – try out www.canva.com
3. Print your card or order printing online:
  • At your local Printer
  • At home or your local Copy Shop
  • Online at www.vistaprint.co.nz
  • Online at www.zazzle.co.nz
