How many of you have done this?

So I was sick earlier this week, but I was working with Photoshop anyway.

I then proceed to sneeze all over the screen.

I come back like a few hours later, and I have a file open and it has close to a few hundred layers. And I am like what the HELL is that colored spot. So of course I am turning layers on and off, and I can't figure out which layer it is, so then I make a new layer and send it to the very top, and I grab the eye dropper and select the color I want and then grab the airbrush. So I am moving the brush around and its not doing jack... So I look at the pressure setting and I crank it up. Still it does nothing. At this point I am getting pretty pissed...

then I grab the magnifying glass and zoom in. And the damn spot stays in the same place.

I reach up on the screen, and with a wet finger rub the discoloration off of the screen...

I felt like such an ass...

Anyone else done that?

no, sorry dude. but that's something to keep in mind. one of my monitors sometimes has a slightly red spot in the upper left.

Ouch, that is disgusting...booger spot, whulaeeeiajnggaaahumph...

If you set up an real canvas and sneezed a cupla times, you could do...eh...art of it ;)

Hope you're feeling better now, tho. I suggest we all start wearing helmets with,... I don't know the english word...visir...the seethrough glass on helmets..., on it.

Fearing the moment a girl with the monthly thingy posts something slightly similar to this post ;) , I mean...

"...I bend over to pick up something and sneezed, and as I was nude, the entire screen was covered..."

WHUHAAA !

never done that - but I do the "caps-lock-is-on-what the Hell?" with my cursor sometimes in photoshop. I dumped the preferences, and almost re-installed it once.

HA HA HA HA HA

I figured that out like, reeeeeally early into my days of photoshop usage, entirely by accident. I love when people freak out when that happens. That and the tab key. I love when I view an image full screen (F+F then TAB) which frames it in black, and hides all your options. People end up having to Ctrl+Alt+Del almost every time just because they're can'r learn ANY hotkeys.

When did PS get hot keys??????

Once, during the summer, a mosquito landed on my screen and I tried to right-click to delete it.

Never worked.

I bet it'd be a funny prank to pull on someone to make a copy of their desktop pic, then place a fake icon on it, making it look real enough, but have the fake one be something really embarassing, or just otherwise irritating like 'MY PORN COLLECTION' or, 'SUPER VIRUS '03'

This would be especially funny on a company or school computer, especially on a faculty member or boss's computer.

You've been outdone:

LOL... I'm here at Au Bon Pain in cambridge, massachusetts... I see this stuck up looking woman with her 17" powerbook sitting on the far end of the restaurant..

so I sit wayy on the other side, where I can see her face, but she cant really see me. I take out my 12" powerbook and put it on the seat next to me...

then, for those of you who don't know, OSX has this networking thing called "rendezvous" that will automatically show everyone on the network with OSX (that has it on as well)

since this place is right in the heart of the MIT campus, there is free MIT wireless net access as well..

I open up rendezvous and hope that she has it on. she does - even better is that her rendezvous name is set to something that looks very much like an AIM sn...

now if you guys use iChat, you know that when someone direct connects to you, it doesnt even ask you, it just auto connects and they can send whatever..

so I open up iChat, sign on some name I never use, DC to her, and goatse her her immediatly. EVERYONE behind her GETS UP, THROWS OUT THEIR FOOD AND LEAVES!!! then she is sooo embarassed and PISSED that she packs all her stuff in a hurry and RUNS out of there
