Template: The Great Hunger

:cool: This is a bread we make in our country - it's called "pitka" and it's very
delicious. I left the photos because the template looks much better with them. For the background I scan a serviette and I think it's good.

MMMMmmmm...bread!

[srussell]

Love it... Pass the butter, please!

[Marion]

Makes me hungery looking at it. Great job! Good idea for background.

BTW from a design standpoint I really like the way you split the photo of the bread in four, it gives the image a nice texture. Looks really nice and integrated - like from a magazine. Plus on a metaphorical level it gives a sense of dividing or sharing the bread. I think you discovered the one theme that every single person on earth can relate to, fresh bread. :D

We seriously need to think of having a ScrapbookMax! convention in Las Vegas or New York, or somewhere! We can have Aniradulova cook all the bread, Steve can supply the embellishments, Corey can do the shapes, Marion can do the motto, Jojo.......

Wait, I got to think, don't want to leave anyone out! I'll bring the chips and salsa!

Granny :rolleyes:

Did anyone know that I'm really a chef? Really!!! Honest to goodness!! I graduated from the Culinary Institute of American in New York in 1978.

I just made tamales for a party this past weekend... I'll see if I can find some pictures of the yearly Christmas Cookie Extravaganza....

Sure , I'll cook for the party...

[Corey]

Mmmmmm, shapes and salsa... My favorite. :)

[JoJo]

I'll bring the wine, & we'll make a real party of it:D

[Marion]

Goodness Steve, you are full of talents! Layouts, music and now cooking too!
I am impressed (or are you making it up as you go along? Just wondering)
Just kidding!

Hi Marion,

I guess at my age, I just ended up accruing different skill sets (although my spelling has something to desired)... It's all too weird to make up anyway... Not to toot my own horn, but here goes...

I've been cooking since I was knee-high to a grasshopper, then after high school, I got my culinary degree... I still cook just about everyday, but not for a living anymore. :)

I've been playing music professionally since I was a senior in high school, now I do production in my home studio. I just finished a title song called "Kids Learn Spanish" for a Kids DVD set... I played 10 instruments and sing lead and harmony vocals. My wife and I were on the road full-time for 6 years in the late 80's.

I also have a BA in Electronics from DeVry, so I've been around computers, programming and technology a while. I've been doing multimedia programming and game development for about 15 years now, so I kind of had to learn to do graphics out of necessity. (Sorry, no degree here!) CDROMs, games, webpages, etc. I started writing a scrapbooking program about 3 years ago with another guy, but that fell apart.. :o

Indigo Rose has other products I've been using for years and I got the announcement about Scrapbook MAX! and that's how I ended here...

Now I do the scrapbook design because I enjoy it and I don't have to take myself too seriously...

And most of all I enjoy sharing my work with fellow "scrappers"... :D

P.S. Are you impressed yet? LMAO ;)

[Marion]

Well yes, of course! glad you're on our side!!!

Marion

[Granny]

Good grief... They had music and cooking way back when you were a teenager? :rolleyes:

Just kidding. A person after my own heart! In that case, we will also have you entertain us, and do the dishes after!

Marion.... Where is the motto for our Convention? Oh, ok, I'll give you plenty of time to come up with it. Don't want to pressure you or nag... You have 1/2 hour to do it! :D

Granny :eek:

[srussell]

Yes Granny,

Yes, they actually had music in the 70's & 80's ... You know, the Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Journey ...you know .. real music...

And I start cooking with clays pots over open pits ...

Steve
