The one in which I procrastinate

Because procrastination is something I never do. If by never I mean it's one of my favorite endeavors...

Anyway. MckMama posted a photoshop tutorial, so naturally, since I'm supposed to be catching up on some online ethics discussions, I thought I'd give it a try and see what happens. Here's a little monkey montage: 



Hmmmmm. What do you think? I ran into a couple snags working in photoshop. I picked three pictures I didn't think needed editing before I threw them together, but when I opened the first picture in the editor it showed the dimensions as 55 inches by 30 some inches. Huh? Then after I resized the canvas it wouldn't let me move the little side pictures, it kept popping up an error message saying they couldn't be moved because the result would be too big. I was able to fix that by decreasing the size of my canvas. I don't really understand how I did what I did, but it seemed to work out reasonably well, so we'll leave it at that :)

Ok, that's enough procrastinating for me for now. It's late and I have literally hundreds of discussion postings to sift through as well as post my own. So now I move on to answering how Pragmatism would respond to the idea of universal healthcare, as well as my take on Islamic and Hindu ethics. Blech.

Edited: Ok, so when I view my post in a new window, you know in the actual way a person would see it if they looked at my blog (that's a pretty big if too), the picture appears as if it has a little frame around it. Is that normal? How can I make it look seamless? All right, now I'll stop procratinating :)

Editing the edit: So it appears that all my pictures show up with that little framey thing around it. Still wondering if there's a way to make that disappear. And apparently still procrastinating...and making up words (framey Becky? really?).
