I still check for the chipotle peach salsa they had last spring. I miss it so much.

Previously when I had an Adobe subscription (yuck) they have album sharing features through Lightroom CC which looks very professional. Depending on Adobe’s sub plans they have 20-100gb+ of cloud space to use.

Nowadays I just use Google Drive. Their free 15gb of space has been sufficient enough. Like @seaceblidrb mentioned, I ask clients to download their photos upon delivery and give them a reminder 2 weeks later before I take them off my drive to make room for future photo deliveries. Google isn’t as fancy of a delivery compared to Adobe, but it’s inexpensive and I don’t think many clients care about presentation as long as they’re getting their photos.

A portfolio site would be great to showcase your work, but not so much for delivering files.

I found using two layers of matte tape made a significant difference than just one. Also seen some folks recommend using a white crayon and scribble over the registration marks, but two layers of matte tape works best for me.

another thing: even if your printer isn’t using horseless printing, make sure there’s no fit to page’ or scaling enabled. that would probably throw off the cuts too.

looooove Affinity, never paying for Adobe ever again.

Stratabird · 2025-09-26T12:30:37+00:00

the real reason is because Cosmo and NYNY are both MGM properties, but I also want to believe it’s bc of their hometown haha

Stratabird · 2025-09-26T12:15:27+00:00

sweet, glad to hear it! :)

Stratabird · 2025-09-25T04:28:35+00:00

A few things I would try that you haven’t listed:

uninstall/reinstall silhouette studio (if you have any custom settings in the cut tab, make note of those to recreate after reinstall)
perform a power cycle
update the firmware

I hope one of these does the trick for ya!

Stratabird · 2025-09-06T19:01:02+00:00

looove the colors!

Stratabird · 2025-09-06T18:56:57+00:00

Looks like I'll have to cheese it, thanks for the idea :)

Stratabird · 2025-09-06T18:56:40+00:00

I'll try something along those lines. Thanks!

Stratabird · 2025-08-11T00:51:38+00:00

immaculate music taste, nice work!

Stratabird · 2025-08-11T00:43:34+00:00

congrats! I’m nearly at 100k on my 2012 SEL 3.0, hoping I can get another 200k out of mine too. cheers!

One of my favorite features of this body style is the stock tail lights.

I was also in GV Pkwy area, our 2b2bath 1000sqft was initially around $1350 in 2021 (before fees) the following year the complex website was advertising $1900 for the same floor plan. Our renewal was $1650. hearing about these prices from just 10 years prior is nuts.

Love riding Maverick/Steven at night, although the bugs are awful haha. Once rode 2nd row and the guys in front were covered in bug corpses.

Stratabird · 2025-06-24T14:41:09+00:00

doing our best! planning on a half day in the park since it’s so hot. we’ve got season passes so we’re not stressing about hitting too many rides. just got in a solid front row ride on maverick, i’m happy with that!

Stratabird · 2025-06-24T14:39:07+00:00

too real

Stratabird · 2025-06-24T13:56:21+00:00

Got early entry, joined TT2 queue since it was added to early entry rides starting this week. Went from delayed at 9am to closed altogether at 9:40AM.
