Clipping Masks

 July.25th.2006 • 7:29PM No Comments

This is the story of a guy and Photoshop. Clipping masks are your friend, that”s all you need to know.

When it comes to me and Photoshop, I won’t mind documents with loads of extra layers - as long as I have complete control of them.

This is the story of a guy and his first company. Said guy felt it was time to start the next phase of his career, and Revyver is it.

About a month ago, after the Facebook fiasco, I said that I had a few things up my sleeve. Well, this is one of them. Actually, it was the only thing I managed to finish by my self-imposed July 1st deadline. So, Revyver (re•vy•ver) is the name of my new company — but it’s not just a design company, nor will it be just a design company.

The Revyver Logo

Revyver stands for many things as it is derived from the word “revive”. The revival of my entrepreneurial spirit (caused by the events of late) and the will to revive ...
