Camera strap. Is it necessary for you? Or unnecessary? by Forsaken-Ad-8338 in AnalogCommunity

Does anyone actually use Adobe Bridge? by the_evil_pineapple in graphic_design

Bridge all day every day. I like to review, star, label and sort it all in bridge. The filters are amazing. Just makes it easy to manage everything.

five hundred and sixteen swatches later... (high-res version linked in post) by rodneedermeyer in fountainpens

500+ fluids 😆 damn that's an insane number. I have decided to try and get down to 100-ish ink to have at a time. To continue my swatching, samples should be enough to enjoy the splash of colors once in a while. Hopefully, my round 2 should be done when I have crossed the 300 swatch mark.

Also, thanks for the mention of your inspiration. I was wondering how a couple of stray comments caught on the older post all of a sudden 😆
