Hahaha!! Tonight I found a handful of my first lessons in Photoshop from when I was taking graphic design classes at Terra Community College. I remember opening Photoshop and Pagemaker for the first time on TCC's Mac (I can't remember what type of Mac, but I definitely remember when we upgraded to the G3 iMac). I saved all of my files on 3.5" floppy discs at the time, and when we got the G3's I had absolutely no idea what to do with the brand new zip drives that came installed on them. I remember think to myself, that fat slot is the future! I remember being required to buy a zip disc for class. I marched over to the book store and was stunned to find they cost $25 to $30. But I remember the trade-off was that they could hold a shit-ton of information. I still have my old zip discs in my drawer beside me, as I type this. I'd love to go back through the rest of my old files... some of which were last modified in 2002. Eventually I'd like to archive all of the images I've ever created... I have nearly everything. It will take days and days of scanning, but the payoff would be having a good home for all the hard work and passion I put into my early design work.
