The Associated Press has an article about Kodak's venerable Kodachrome film and it's imminent demise. Sad, very sad indeed!

As a documentary wedding photographer, I custom-design albums for each of my clients. That's right. Every single album design is unique. No two clients will ever receive the same album design layout. Why? Simple. Each client is unique.

But this post is about a terrific set of Photoshop actions that photographer Andrew Funderburg has created called – Fundy's Solution On Steroids.

Andrew and I struck up a conversation and he has generously agreed to provide Tiffinbox readers a whopping 25% discount for the next two weeks when you use the following discount code: September08.

Check out the video tutorials that will help you set up the program. Dig deeper and you will find that Andrew also offers an Album Proofing program that will allow your clients to check out your awesome and, yes, unique album designs on their monitor and allow them to comment on the images and layout, giving you a faster turnaround on the album making process and more cash in your pocket.

For me, using Fundy's actions is a no-brainer. Click the banner below or the links above to buy Fundy's Solution on Steroids. Remember, you are getting an awesome set of actions at 25% till the end of September.

To celebrate the 60th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission (HREOC) is holding a photo competition based on the theme – ‘Dignity and justice for all of us'.

They are looking for images that reflect the theme of the competition and provide a unique approach to a human rights subject. For some, the photograph will record a moment that celebrates dignity and justice; for others, it will capture fundamental rights and freedoms being recognized; or it may be an observance of what human rights means to you.

It's been a long time since I posted here. I am looking at some options – perhaps moving my site, completely redesigning it or better yet having it redesigned by a pro who has the time to do it. My time these days are spent on my professional documentary wedding photography website and blog, so forgive me while I try and make a living.

The point of this post, however, is this. If you are a blogger and you aren't reading Remarkablogger on a daily basis, you are shooting yourself in the foot. Actually, make that both feet.

Michael Martine who runs Remarkablogger has a cool new opportunity for you bloggers who feel no link love from the world. Go, nay, run to his recent post about boosting your traffic and simply follow the directions there.

Then, wait and watch. Pretty cool, eh?
