We are also introducing a photo-contest this month, which (based on last month's traffic) we are expecting hundreds, if not thousands, of submissions."

St. Patrick's Day Photoshop Brushes

St. Patrick's Day Photoshop Brushes
From Stephanie-March 05, 2008.

Interestingly, St. Patrick's Day has been moved from its usual March 17th spot this year to March 15th. "Uh... wha?", right? Well, the Vatican approved it last year, and it was done to avoid conflict with "Holy Week" this year.

This marks the first time the date has been changed since 1940. The next conflict with Holy Week is not expected until 2160.

This set is mostly made up of shamrocks and clovers, including both three and four leaf clovers (for luck!). Some are scattered, some are textured, some glittery, others are sporting some pretty Celtic designs, and there's even a few swirls with shamrock designs thrown in!

Also included are a leprechaun, a pot of gold, and the letters "St. Patrick's Day" spelled in clovers.

Good things come in this small package, including Live View, which enables users to hold the camera away from their faces and interact with their subjects - ideal when capturing photos of children, for example.
