After all the excitement of the Conference and workshops (our last spring workshop was last week) we now have a fairly quiet period at Landlord Law Towers.
Time for us to plan and work towards new projects, and also time for me to learn some new software.
I have recently bought Photoshop, an unbelievably complex program, with which I hope to be able to do my own web banners and boxes.
My first effort is the HMO Basics series logo, based on a photo I took a few years ago (pictured).
Big thanks to Nick Tadd of Property Tribes who kindly gave up some of his time to give me some pointers the other day.
