Laguna Beach Bikini

Digging through our files we found this early magazine that was devoted to the digital darkroom–Popular Fauxtography from January 1995. It had articles and tutorials devoted to computer image processing. At that time Photoshop 3.0 had recently been released, which contained Layers. which greatly enhanced the creativity of Photoshop artists.

Back then, magazines only cost 25 cents. And you paid 16 cents for a White Castle hamburger. A new Chevy was about $1000 and a house sold for $8000, which was two years pay for the average American worker. My how times and prices have changed!

Unfortunately the magazine is no longer published, no doubt a victim of the very revolution that it helped spawn. Surprisingly, even then people were trying to get that Dave Hill Signature look, even though he was only about eight years old. Hmmm.
