A Statement of Confusion

For many moons now, I have been in dismay at my inability to pinpoint exactly how other bloggers do it. By "it" I mean all of it. Photo collages, words on pictures, new sources, new topics. Does everyone walk around being followed by a DSLR? Does everyone have amazing photo editors?

I mean, I know how I do it - through agonizingly slow and old photoshop programs... and I get the desired results... but there must be a better way.

A few guesses I've come up with:
1. People on PCs have better photo editors than a Mac's sorry iPhoto
2. Picasa? I'm not sure exactly what they do on Picasa but I'm guessing it's involved.
3. Polyvore. I know I'm on to to something here

Am I close?


Don't get me wrong. I am thoroughly content with my own words-on-pictures art. I just can't imagine everyone in the blogosphere/pinterestland uses photoshop. Or maybe they do. 

back when I was slaving over Adobe Illustrator to make these

 Is Adobe ever involved in the process? Paint? Preview?
The suspense is killing me.

  1. Picasa and I are best friends! That's all I use because that is all I know how to use:) Don't stress, be happy. Remember that your blog can't be your #1 priority, your life and loved ones are.

    And you seriously need to try out that pizza recipe, it is my favorite thing to make. The recipe will make 2 crusts so then you'll have one already made for next time

  2. ditto to picasa! i don't know anything about photo-shop, and I am pretty low-tech in general, but picasa is really user-friendly!
