This started out as an experiment since I didn't think I could even pull it off, if I knew it would've turned out as good as it did I would've put more of a story behind it. O well, it makes up for in Visual Effects, ENJOY!

Except the “update” is Photoshop CS6. For everyone else, Adobe suggests they follow “security best practices and exercise caution when opening files from unknown or untrusted sources”.

ArsTechnica had a live blog from the Apple WWDC Keynote. Highlights seem to include new Mac Pros, and MacBook Pros with Retina screens, and iOS 6.0 which has their own Maps software.

The Apple vs Samsung battle continues, with Samsung now suing the Australian patent commissioner. Samsung hoped the review would effectively nullify the patents, which sit at the core of Apple's case against Samsung's iPad rival tablet, the Galaxy Tab 10.1.
