Learn how to use selections and layer masks in Photoshop to create composite images and apply targeted adjustments. After covering the key concepts behind selections and exploring Photoshop's selection tools, Tim Grey delves into a variety of advanced techniques that will help you make accurate selections, create seamless composite images, and apply adjustments that do exactly what you want them to do.
One of the key concepts to understand when it comes to layer masking, is that black will block while white will reveal. And when you're creating a composite image that means you're blocking or revealing certain pixels within the image, so that you're revealing other pixels. So for example, I might block certain pixels from this egret image in order to reveal the cloudy background below. And of course, since we're using black and white to determine which pixels are visible, it only stands to reason that we can use the Brush tool to put those black and white pixels in place. Of course, first I need a layer mask, so I'll click on the thumbnail for the layer that I want to mask.
In this case, the Egret layer or the upper layer in the stack. And then I'll click on the Add Layer Mask button, the circle inside of a square icon at the bottom of the Layers panel. And that will add a white mask, meaning that all of the pixels in this layer are currently being revealed. But we can change that very easily by painting on that mask. I'll make sure that the mask itself is active, so that I'm painting on the mask, not on the image. You can see that the mask is active, because there are prop corners around the edges, but I can also simply click on that thumbnail just to make sure that it really is the active item here, so that I'm painting on that layer mask. Then I'll choose the Brush tool from the Toolbox, and I'll press the letter D on the keyboard to get the default values of black and white. And since I'm working on a layer mask, that will be white for my foreground color and black for my background color.
I can then adjust my Brush settings, so I'll adjust the Hardness of the brush for example, perhaps taking this down to around about 50% value. The optimal value will depend in large part on the size of the brush that I'm going to use, but we'll be able to adjust the setting here in a moment. I'll also make sure that the mode is set to Normal and that the Opacity is set to 100%, and then, I can move my mouse over the image and adjust the Brush Size as needed. The left square bracket key will reduce the brush size and the right square bracket key will increase the brush size. And then I'll press X on the keyboard to set the foreground color to black so that I can block some pixels.
And at that point, I can simply paint within the image. Once again, I am painting on the layer mask not on the image itself, and so, the black that I'm adding to that layer mask is causing pixels on this layer to be blocked. They're no longer visible and so we can effectively see through this layer down to the layer below, which happens to be my cloudy sky. And so, I can continue painting as needed in order to block portions of the image. In this case, that would involve painting throughout the sky so that I block the sky from my Egret photo, revealing the cloudy sky down below.
If I were to make a mistake, of course it's relatively easy to fix. For example, let's say that I was painting and I cut off part of the beak here. I can simply press the letter X to switch my foreground and background colors so that white is now my foreground color, and then I can paint over that beak area to reveal the beak once again. And then press X to switch the foreground color to black, and go back and correct my painting or clean up that result. Now, obviously, I have a bit more work to do here to get a perfect result, but you can see that the process is relatively straightforward.
I can paint with black to block pixels from the current layer or with white to reveal pixels until I have a perfect composite.

Dwayne Smith spectacularly finished what Sachin Tendulkar started as Mumbai strengthened their claims to a place in the Indian Premier League knockout stages with a thrilling last-ball victory over Chennai.
The Indians' chances of chasing the Super Kings' 173-8 seemed to have gone when they lost seven wickets for 25 runs, following a century stand between Tendulkar (74) and Rohit Sharma (60).
But that was reckoning without Barbados all-rounder Smith, who first of all kept his cool while four other batsmen were making ducks around him.
It still appeared Mumbai had run out of steam until Smith hit the last three balls of the final over, from Ben Hilfenhaus, for a six and two fours to finish with an unbeaten 24 and sneak a highly-improbable two-wicket win.
Lasith Malinga (3-25) and RP Singh (3-28) had earlier been responsible for six of the CSK wickets but opener Murali Vijay (41) and West Indies all-rounder Dwayne Bravo (40) ensured a challenging total.

Associate Professor
B.A. Literature, SUNY Purchase, 1976
M.Phil. Comparative Literature,, CUNY Graduate Center, 1985
Ph.D. Comparative Literature,, CUNY Graduate Center, 1991
Lisa Goldfarb's research and teaching interests are in the fields of comparative literature (French and English) and critical writing. She focuses on 19th- and 20th-century European and American literature, and is particularly interested in modern poetry and poetics, the relationship between music and poetry, philosophic questions in literature, as well as the literature and history of New York City. Her interdisciplinary seminars on related themes include "Belief and Skepticism", "Sound and Sense", "Reading Poetry", "Wallace Stevens and the 20th Century", "Modern Poetry and the Actual World", and "The Music of Poetry and the Poetry of Music". Professor Goldfarb has taught a foreign study course in Nîmes (France) and has accompanied student travel and study groups to Cuba, Prague, Athens, and Ireland. She is a recipient of Gallatin's Adviser of Distinction Award and NYU's Great Teacher Award. Her book, The Figure Concealed: Wallace Stevens, Music, and Valéryan Echoes , focuses on the resonance of Paul Valéry's musical poetics in the poetry and prose of Wallace Stevens. In addition to her many journal articles on modern poetry, she is co-editor, with Bart Eeckhout, of a volume of essays, Wallace Stevens, New York, and Modernism (Routledge, 2012), which considers the impact of New York on the life and work of Wallace Stevens. Professor Goldfarb is president of the Wallace Stevens Society and associate editor of The Wallace Stevens Journal . Professor Goldfarb served as Associate Dean of Faculty and Academic Affairs from 2007 to 2014.
Along with Bart Eeckhout and Natalie Gerber, Professor Lisa Goldfarb edited Helen Vendler's Wallace Stevens, a special issue of The Wallace Stevens Journal (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2014). Professor Goldfarb co-wrote the introduction, "Fifteen Ways of Looking at Helen Vendler's Wallace Stevens" and her essay, "My Invisible Teacher: Helen Vendler on Wallace Stevens" appears in the same issue.
Professor Goldfarb, along with Bart Eeckhout and Juliette Uttard, organized the spring 2015 conference, "Wallace Stevens in France: An International Conference." At the conference, she presented her paper, "Thinking through the Senses: Stevens and Valéry, with Echoes of Proust."
Professor Goldfarb was chosen to be a visiting researcher at the Sorbonne (University of Paris, 4) for 2014-2015, and was a GRI faculty fellow at NYU's Paris site during the spring of 2015. In March 2014, she gave a guest lecture at the University of Antwerp, "Time and Memory in Stevens' 'Postcard from the Volcano' and 'A Dish of Peaches in Russia.'"
Professor Goldfarb and Bart Eeckhout were editors of a special issue of The Wallace Stevens Journal, entitled Wallace Stevens and W.H. Auden, published by Johns Hopkins University Press in 2013. Goldfarb contributed her article "'An Unalterable Vibration' or 'An Altering Speech for Altering Things': Stevens, Auden, and Symbolist Poetics" and co-wrote, with Bart Eeckhout, the introduction, "Stevens and Auden: Disparities and Affinities" to the special issue. She and Bart Eeckhout co-chaired and moderated a session on "Helen Vendler's Wallace Stevens" at the 2014 MLA convention in January.
Professor Goldfarb's essay "'Thinking-Intuitive Types:' Poetic Affinities in W.H. Auden and Paul Valéry'" was accepted for publication as a chapter for Auden at Work, a volume of essays edited by Bonnie Costello and Rachel Galvin (Palgrave MacMillan, forthcoming 2015). She co-organized the May 2014 international conference at the University of Antwerp, "Poetry after Wallace Stevens," and will deliver the paper, "'The Huge High Harmony:" Wallace Stevens' Musical Legacy.'"

30 year old woman | McDonough, GA, USA | Seeking men 25-35 within 50 miles
Active within 3 days
You only live once..
I am looking to find someone who enjoys many of the same things that I do in life. I enjoy spending a majority of my time with the people who matter the most - my family and friends. It can be something as simple as going out for dinner and drinks, a live concert, bowling, tailgating and going to a Braves game, or even a night in watching a movie. I love country music, and I am always up for a good tailgate and concert. I am at the point in life where I am over the whole bar scene and am not really looking to meet someone there, so I figured I had mine as well try the whole online dating thing and see where it takes me ;)
Dining out , Gardening/Landscaping , Hobbies and crafts , Music and concerts , Shopping/Antiques , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Billiards / Pool, Bowling, Other types of exercise, Running, Tennis / Racquet sports, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
Valdosta State University, Valdosta, GA
My favorite type of music would definitely have to be country, but I also listen to other types of music. My favorite food is pretty much anything from Mexican to Italian depending on my mood!
When I have free time, I enjoy Braves games, tailgating, concerts, live music of any sort, bowling, hanging out with friends and family, shopping, playing tennis, working out

Made this for a dinner party, not a single drop left!! I took your advise and used a ice mold with fresh peaches and a few raspberries it it! What a hit!
I coudn't find peach nectar, so I used frozen peach concentrate, it was a little thick, so I added some sprite to thin it down a bit. Was a hit, tasted just like a bellini!

Importance of the causal structure. Solid line has direct causal influence ("direct" means that causal influence is not mediated by any other variable that is included in the study). Dashed line indicates there are two possibilities, but we do not know which holds. Dashed line without any arrow heads indicates there is a dependency but we do not know the reciprocal dependence.

Drink-o de Mayo?
Is Cinco De Mayo For Sale By the Alcohol Industry? In the 1960s, Chicano activists in Colorado promoted a boycott of Coors beer in response to employment discrimination against Latinos at Coors breweries. Coors had two problems. They had to fix their image with Latino consumers, and they had to figure out some way to get college students to drink more beer in May. The solution: start sponsoring Cinco de Mayo! Thus, even though Mexicans in Mexico celebrate their independence day on September 15th and 16th, Mexican-Americans are more likely to celebrate the May 5th anniversary of the Battle of the Puebla, which is not even commemorated with a national holiday in Mexico. In fact, the Battle of the Puebla was a skirmish in the Pastry War, a French intervention in Mexico that began because a French chef demanded several thousand pesos to compensate him for Mexican military officers looting his pastry supply.
Happy Thanksgiving or Is It?
Happy Thanksgiving or Is It? In 1939, Franklin Delano Roosevelt responed to pressure from the National Retail Dry Goods Association to move the official date of Thanksgiving back one week to the next-to-last Thursday of the month. FDR hoped that this would enliven the economy by adding one week to the Christmas shopping season, but he received considerable political flak for tampering with what many viewed as a sacred religious holiday. (Thanksgiving is considered sacred even though it only became a national holiday due to lobbying by the editor of a 19th century woman's magazine.) New Deal-era Republicans were especially bothered by the calendar change and one essayist at the American Enterprise Institute still seems to carry a grudge. Congress later resolved the issue by passing a resolution in 1941 that designated Thanksgiving as the fourth Thursday of November.

HSBC "lift" by Grey London

Richard Haley will join as chief finance officer in October, having previously held a number of senior roles at Tesco, while former managing director, Nial Ferguson, moves into a new role of content and marketing director.
Ferguson joined Future from Emap (now Bauer) in March 2008 as group publisher for T3, and was appointed managing director Technology and Film & Games in July 2009.
He was only promoted to group managing director in December 2013 and had been tasked with leading the company's transition into a predominantly digital business.
However, in May, and after disappointing financial results, the chief finance officer turned chief executive Byng-Maddick declared "Future's business model isn't working hard enough".
In other moves announced by Future today, Jeff Turner becomes commercial director for advertising. He brings 16 years experience to the role, including senior commercial roles at Telegraph Media Group and KGB deals.
Paul Layte, previously at Carphone Warehouse, has been appointed commercial director for consumer revenues and will be responsible for circulation, subscriptions, digital editions, trade marketing, affiliates, consumer and product insight, data strategy and international licensing.
Emma Harvey will lead the newly created Product & Technology team, as product and technology director, Michael Venus joins as HR and communications director, and Charlie Speight continues as senior vice president of Future US, having been promoted to the role in April 2014.
Byng-Maddick said: "I am delighted to be working with such a strong team with a wealth of media, retail, and technology experience; this is the right team for the next stage of the Future journey and I am looking forward to working together with them."

"Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in SPEECH, LIFE, LOVE, FAITH, and PURITY."
—2 Timothy 4:12
Tom Toombs is not just another funny face. He is an inventive communicator. Preaching, drama, mime, juggling, balloon parables, illusion, comedy and his energetic characters portray the gospel truth. He has been featured in major youth conferences throughout the county and recently on the Rebecca St. James tour.

Our Mission
Our mission is based on Deuteronomy 6:5-7: "And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength. And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up." (NLT)
Not only must we love God with all our heart, but we must consistently teach our children about the Love of Christ and make it a priority to be in constant conversation about the gospel message. Our mission is to equip families with the tools they can use to strengthen their faith together.
At Rez Kidz, we dream of parents and their children committing together to make their faith a priority. We dream of boys and girls who light up with excitement when they walk through the door and leave in wonder about a King who loves them. We dream of families committing themselves wholeheartedly to the commands of the Lord. We dream of watching the gospel message change lives, one family at a time.
That is our mission: to share the gospel of Jesus Christ and to encourage, equip, and build-up families as we glorify our Savior.

The object of Blackjack is very simple: to achieve a total that is greater than that of the dealer, and which does not exceed 21.
You must consider your cards and your dealer's card and remember, if you go over 21, you lose.
You win if:
- Your total is higher than the Dealer's total.
- The Dealer goes over 21 or "busts".
If your total is the same as the Dealer's total it is a "stand-off" and you neither win nor lose.
If you go over 21, or the Dealer's total is greater, you lose.
The values of the cards:
- Picture cards (Jack, Queen, King) each count as 10 points.
- An Ace counts as 1 point or 11 points, whichever is better for owns of the hand.
- All other cards have their numerical value.
Blackjack is a combination of an Ace and any 10-points card.

The player is dealt an initial two card hand with the option of drawing cards to bring the total value to 21 or less without exceeding it, so that the dealer will lose by having a lesser hand than the player or by exceeding 21. Since the 1960s, blackjack has been a high profile target of advantage players, particularly card counters, who track the profile of cards yet to be dealt, and adapt their wager and playing strategy accordingly. While in our implementation we do not teach counting, we do offer basic strategy hints to train you on how to improve your odds.
Many rule variations of BlackJack exist. Our implementation offers most common casino rules:
- Play with 4 decks
- Decks are reshuffled when there is less than 20 cards left.
- Dealer stands on soft 17
- Player can split twice
- Neither surrender nor insurance are offered
When hints are enabled, player would need to confirm his choice if it's not the most optimum action.

Casino Blackjack
Regular Mode is a completely realistic blackjack simulator (card order in the shoe is randomized during the shuffle). Shoe is 6 decks by default and is shuffled 3/4 of the way through. If pro features are enabled, these can be customized. You start with 1000 chips and $10,000 in the bank. You can "borrow money" if your bankroll goes negative. Stats are tracked so you can see your performance over time! Start a new session anytime from the stats page.
New in version 1.5: You can enable many of the "pro features" for free! Note that this will also enable an ad bar at the bottom of the screen but you can always uncheck the setting and turn the ads and pro features back off. The pro features include:
*Expected Value (EV) calculated live for every play based on the up cards.
*Customize the rules, # of decks, and when decks are shuffled.
*Lots of stats tracked for both the current session and overall including stats on your double downs, splits, and hand distribution.
Plus 3 additional game modes:
*Cheat Mode stacks the deck in your favor. Despite what some reviewers seem to think, the deck is randomized in Regular Mode. However, in Cheat Mode it is harder for you to bust and less likely for you to pull a low card on a double down. If you'd rather win than have realistic odds, Cheat Mode is for you!
*Sim Mode allows you to prepare yourself for any scenario you may face in a casino. Its not actually a blackjack game - you can't win or lose bets - but it allows you to see your EV for any possible hand. Click on either of your cards or the dealer's first card to choose the value of that card and see what your odds are. Click a card again to change its value. Not sure if you made the right play while at a casino? Enter the hand in Sim Mode and find out!
*X-Ray Mode: Wouldn't you like to have a pair of X-Ray glasses at the blackjack table that allow you to see the dealer's hole card? Now you can with X-Ray Mode!
*Note on permissions: These are required by Mobclix for ads. However, you must enable pro features for ads to be run at all. The choice is yours.

Thread: Help me understand please.
March 8th, 2013 #1
Help me understand please.
Could someone help me out here? I just have a question thats been in my head for awhile now and I was hoping I could get it answered here. I've been studying anatomy for awhile, but I don't know exactly what to do with it. I still can't just draw people/characters of the top of my head even with some reference. It just looks like I'm copying what I see on the paper with some minor differences of my own. How do I get anywhere near sketches like this? I know a couple of these are developed on the computer, but for the mot part the actual sketch/drawing stage is done traditionally; the way I prefer. I feel I'm using my books or practice time in a non productive way for learning and need help.
--The attachments are just general images from my concept reference folder, but I'm trying to relay the idea without posting a bunch of pictures. If I did something wrong with the pics please let me know.

Can you post some of your drawings of the human figure? Anyways there's a lot of things that go into drawing a good character, not just studying anatomy. Once you know the fundamentals of form and perspective, you can use those tools to help you make better drawings. As you are still a beginner you should draw the basic forms first and focus on anatomical details later. Get proficient with stick figures, or mannequins, and building basic forms on those. Perspective is important too, as you always need to consider what the viewpoint(eye-level) of the drawing is and where parallel features converge to.
A good way for using reference is to first draw the conception, or thumbnails, of what it is you want to draw. After, use reference to help you to construct the figure; but you absolutely have to consider the eye-level of the reference and the eye-level of what it is you want to draw. You need to adjust your thinking in order to use the reference without ending up with a perspective-incorrect drawing.

Here is what's in my sketchbook that I've been doing with basic anatomy so far.
March 8th, 2013 #4
You have a really good start, keep doing the anatomy studies but also ones from your imagination, the fix them by looking at reference.
You just need to remember that it takes a long time. A very long time, to get really good.
March 8th, 2013 #5
Also don't forget to try to apply some observation from life, even something as simple as looking in the mirror and sketching what you see. Helps to sort of associate what all these building blocks actually form.
March 9th, 2013 #6
Ah, I remember feeling like this. This question plagued me for a loooong time, and its only in the last year or so that I get it. you need to remember not to just copy, but build the figures you're studying from the ground up. It looks like you're doing some studies from Bridgman/ Hampton/ Ron Lemen type of books, and those are very important. But I spent a long time copying them over and over without feeling like I was learning anything. It wasn't until it clicked that you can't just copy, but build and correct. For example, when doing your torso studies, instead of just copying what you see, build from the inside out. Start with a gesture, then build solid shapes on top of that. Make sure your shapes are in correct perspective in relation to your reference (that the cube/cylinder that you're using for the ribcage isn't leaning in a way that goes against the way your reference is leaning for example). Once you have that, then build the anatomy on top of your shapes, using shapes that are similar to the muscles you're seeing, keeping THOSE shapes in correct perspective with the bigger shapes you started with.
The point i'm trying to make is, you're not just trying to end up with a exact copy of what you're seeing, but rather you're working on A PROCESS for approaching the subject you're studying, so you can use that approach to recreate that subject. Getting an exact copy IS important, but only as a way to check to make sure your process of gesture/structure/shape/anatomy is effective and correct. If you are already doing everything I mentioned so far, than I apologize for the needless rant, because you're doing it right, and you only have to repeat the process several hundred times with all kinds of subjects and reference for it to finally "click." Either way, good luck!!

@ silentjosh847 good advice'
Learning anatomy: Start with the bones. Learn how the muscles attach to bones. Add that information to shapes and volumes and then you can start creating believable figures from your imagination.
Bridgman/ Hampton are good books to study from. I would also add Artistic Anatomy by Dr. Paul Richer, Robert Beverly Hale or something similar.
and of course draw from life.

One thing to keep in mind is that to transition to drawing people you need to start to concentrate more on the whole than on the parts. Its all great and useful doing the muscles on their own and getting into that detail but always go back to the whole with gesture drawing and construction and drawing from life. Its the whole that is important.
You will develop your own simple lay-in/lay-ins for the character that shows the whole character posed communicated what ever it is you want to communicate and then you can then you can add that muscle detail and all the extra cool stuff afterwards. Hampton and Bridgman stress this. Also if you check out the David Finch DVDs he talks about that specifically also.

It looks to me like you are using the Hampton book (correct me if I'm wrong), to me he explains putting the figure together really well. I studied the book non-stop for a year and I still struggle, it takes time. Probably not as long as it takes me - I'm slow on the uptake . Try doing what I do to practice; grab some ref (photos or a willing victim to sit for you), grab the book and start drawing whilst actively thinking about what you've learned and trying to apply it to the figure in front of you. Refer to the book when you come on a part you are stuck on. To me this helps cement what I have learned into my brain way more than simple repetition. The other thing you could try is to get a photo, drag it into Photoshop or whatever, add a new layer of white, drop the transparency so you can see a toned down version of the photo underneath and finally on a new layer see if you can 'build' the skeleton or simple construction shapes on top. If that makes any sense! Imagine it like an x-ray.
Hope that helps some.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) - Arkansas doesn't enter this season with a proven top-flight running back under first-year coach Bret Bielema.
What the Razorbacks do have, however, is a stable of young runners - led by sophomore Jonathan Williams and freshman Alex Collins - who they hope are ready to take on the Southeastern Conference.
Both of Arkansas' top two running backs from a year ago, Knile Davis and Dennis Johnson, are now in the NFL - leaving the Razorbacks without the 1,134 yards and 10 rushing touchdowns they provided last season.
Williams averaged 5.1 yards per carry in limited action last season, and Bielema says he is the team's "go-to" back this season. The Texas native has been pushed, though, in preseason camp by Collins - one of the top recruits in the country.

Buttercup Baby Blanket by Kristin Omdahl

© Interweave Press
Buttercup Baby Blanket
This pattern is available for download for $5.50.
This pattern is also available in Seamless Crochet, available in print and eBook form.
I love this three-dimensional flower motif, and I think it creates the perfect texture to wrap up and snuggle with your little bundle of joy. The two-tiered flowers have a whimsical, feminine appeal for your favorite girly-girl. The motifs also serve to make a surprisingly dense fabric that is warm and cozy. The simple edging creates a nice contrast with the body of the blanket and provides an attractive, crisp finish.
1 motif = 2½" (6.5 cm) square after blocking.

Why do guys like to spank?
I understand wanting to grab a girl's ass, but this always confuses me. Not that it's particularly a turn off, I just don't see the appeal.
Most Helpful Opinion
Well... I could get into the "absolute reasons", like the want for power and dominance that's so deeply engrained in our male psyche by now that we actually like doing that kind of stuff, in much the same way that a mother loves her child because her genes are in there, but that's been done to death, and it's so scientific and boring...
I'd say the value of it is more important than why we do things... Mothers love their children because they share the same genes. That doesn't make the love any less valuable.
And in the same way, guys like to spank because it is deeply associated with power and dominance that we are genetically predispositioned to. Who cares? It's fun...
So there... We just like it because we like it. Done and done...
Have a nice day ^^

I just got this version on my Galaxy Note 3, waiting to get it on my iPhone
Sent from the iMore App
Use BBM regularly? Then you're going to be pretty stoked to know that version 2.2 of BBM is coming soon to Android and iOS. This release will focus on streamlining the BBM experience. The goal of the update is to make it easier for new users to join the BBM community and make it faster and easter to add contacts. Details and more after the break.
Here's what you get to look forward to with version 2.2 of BBM for Android and iOS:
BlackBerry has cut down the number of fields it takes to sign up. You only need your name, email and password to get started with version 2.2 of BBM. To make becoming friends easier, BlackBerry has made it so that users can become friends just by clicking the BBM invite in an email. There will be no need to send a PIN invite back.
And finally, a bonus for those who don't like to text and would rather send emoticons. Version 2.2 of BBM adds 16 new emoticons. A hotdog, maracas, a hacker, and hot lips are just some of the new emoticons you'll be sending your friends.
BBM version 2.2 will be available in the Google Play Store in a few hours. While iOS users should expect to see it in the coming days. Grab the app if you don't already have it and you'll be get the update when it becomes available.
Anybody out there using BBM? How does it stack up to other messaging platforms for you?

Quite a considerable one - in third world countries, bbm is still the preferred way to communicate, regardless of platform used.
I use bbm on daily basis, to communicate with people overseas. The update description sounds pretty disappointing, as none of this appeals to the business community, which used to be their bread and butter.

Amen! Long overdue.

Really only use it communicate with work buddies overseas. Wish the the created an iOS 7-like look and feel. Every time I use/look at it I feel it's horribly updated but guess can't complain since it's FINALLY universal.

*EDIT: "TO communicate" "THAT THEY" "OUTDATED" lol mind thought faster than my fingers.

Agree. Guess I jumped the gun seeing as this will only be version 2.2. Here's to a redesign in version 3.0! (Raises glass)
Sent from the iMore App
Yeah the design just feels so clunky when the rest of the OS is so silky (debatable lol) smooth. And yeah I pretty much only use it for overseas and people without iOS but maybe with a redesign I'd be tempted to use it more!

Finally faster and easter to add contacts! :p
Posted from my TARDIS!
I am not too excited for the new stickers/emoticons. I would rather want BlackBerry to focus on stability.
BBM is still not optimised for iOS

Boy walks through Tiouri slum in the southern Libyan city of Sebha on Sept. 21, 2013, which is populated almost entirely by stateless Tuareg and Tabu tribesmen. (AP Photo/Paul Schemm).
TRIPOLI: Fresh clashes erupted Tuesday in the southern Libyan city of Sebha pitting supporters of slain dictator Moamer Gadhafi against government forces and former rebels, a military source said.
The latest fighting was sparked by the arrival of government reinforcements who aim to dislodge the Gadhafi supporters from several positions they occupy in and around the desert city, said Al-Ferjani Akila, of the Sebha Operations Centre.
There was no immediate word on casualties.
"Clashes are taking place between the army and former rebels from Misrata on one side and supporters of the old regime on the other," he said.
The coastal city of Misrata saw some of the bloodiest combat of the eight-month uprising that toppled Kadhafi, who was captured and killed by rebels in October 2011.
At least 88 people have been killed and 130 wounded over the past two weeks in fighting between rival tribes in Sebha.
The fighting initially pitted the Arab Awled Sleiman tribe against members of the Toubou, a non-Arab ethnic group that has long complained of being marginalised by Tripoli. The Awled Sleiman have also clashed with other Arab tribes.
Gadhafi loyalists have taken advantage of the chaos to launch repeated attacks on the city's Tamenhant air base, according to local officials.
