DROPBOX 

I came across Dropbox for my computer and my iphone.  I had heard a bit about it, but never really looked into it.  It was recommended as a top 10 app for the iphone on one website.

I've just begun using it.  I have so many photos on my phone and it was slow going to email the ones I wanted to have on my computer so that I could use them for my blog and other items.  Using Dropbox made it so easy to have all my photos there so that I could call them up and use them.  It is also easy to put photos from my computer into Dropbox so that they can also be viewed on my phone.  

I also have a number of files on my phone that were too large to email it to myself so that I could have them on my computer, which is where I wanted them.  With Dropbox, I can send my files there and then move them easily onto my computer.  So easy!

Dropbox is free.  For the iphone, it is found in the AppStore.  For a computer, it can be downloaded from dropbox.com

I recommend this app.  It's fairly easy to use.  There is a good help section in Dropbox itself.  It covers off a multitude of topics and gives clear instructions on what to do.

You Can Draw in 30 Days

I have taken numerous drawing classes over the years and have always felt that I learned a lot and that they gave me a lot of techniques that really did improve my drawing.

When I was at Chapters this past week, I came across the book You Can Draw in 30 Days by Mark Kistler.  It states that it can be used for those who feel that they can't draw, but it does cover the basics along with challenges for those who feel that they are ready for it.

I decided to buy this and work through it to see what I could get from his technique.  I also thought that it would kickstart me into doing more drawing.  

I won't be posting my drawings every day, but I'll probably post them every week.  So, check back for my results and my review of the lessons.  Just click on the above tab "You Can Draw in 30 Days".
