Thanks to everyone who stopped by AIGA Portland’s booth at WebVisions, May 26-27th, to participate in our Photoshop Layer Badminton Challenge.

There are no good guys or bad guys (Okay, maybe a few, but much change is coming from corporations.). There is no formula. And people from disparate backgrounds are collaborating.
