In this YouTube video below, you can watch me use the GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP) in order to bring a texture and a photo together with very little effort using layer modes in GIMP. If you look closely at the image above, you can see the finished effect, a picture of my father interspersed with a subtle flowery texture.

Let’s do something great together! Interested in doing something like this with your company? You can reach me at 609 553 9498, john@lemasney.com, or as lemasney on various social networks.

I would love the opportunity to help you, wherever you are, whenever you are ready. I always enjoy talking with groups and individuals on topics like technology, training, open source, and design.

I decided to update my Facebook profile picture to commemorate my transition from Rider to Princeton. I wanted to show the growth and possibility of Princeton, capture the new start that it provides, and the glory of working at one of the finest universities in the world.

Emotional Walls

If you’ve ever truly loved, you’ve likely added bricks to your wall. It’s nice to peek over it most of the time, but from time to time, it’s a relief to have a shield from the pain and despair of disappointment.

“One reason people put up emotional walls is to manage what happens next. But this sense of control is a myth. Because in reality, things play out like they’re going to and you have far less power over other people than you imagine (or you’d like). There’s a sense of If I, then she will that’s also a myth. You just can’t predict or control other people’s behavior.” – 4 Truths About People Who Put Up (Emotional) Walls | These Little Waves,
