Lorem Ipsum*

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text used in the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker which included versions of Lorem Ipsum.

I'll be adding more information as I create a web version of my teaching section; however, in the meantime below are the photos I use for my demo of Photoshop™ that came from an early version of Photoshop™ as well as other royalty free images or photos I personally took.

Once the photo loads, hold down the control key on a Mac (right click for PC) while clicking on the links below to save the images to your computer.
