STEVE FOR PRESIDENT!
I know this is on a United States Federal Reserve Note and being that your British I hope I am not insulting you. If you take offense to this, I apologize in advance. Happy 50th Birthday!

Hi Steve
This week I've decided against making you youger, older, or undertake some activity that you probably wouldn't do anyway.

So many congratulations on reaching the big 50! Have fun today.

Because of the downturn in the economy you will note that people can't afford colour any more.

The poster you can't read is for "The Mousetrap" a play that has been running in London for longer than Steve has been alive!

I really like that Josephine - I think that style is what Steve describes as Steampunk in his new book - very well executed. I think in the future colour will probably only available to the very richest people but as long as Black & White is this much fun they can have it

A second attempt as I wasn't happy with the dynamics of the background in the first as it looks like Steve's flying at several hundred feet.

中国的南极仙翁,代表着长寿智慧。送给史蒂夫先生一个泥塑寿星,祝生日快乐身体健康!背着新出的photoshop cs4,看来史蒂夫又有新书要出了,不过中国目前只有cs2版的。要是再出新书,最好也在中国发行中文版的,我的英文很差!

Nice one GKB - I nearly went for a stamp motif myself

Does Steve really play the accordian Wayne? Truly he is a man of many parts ... some of them still moving ...

At the back of Steve's new book, in the About The Author section, it says he 'plays the piano well, the accordion moderately and the guitar badly'.

Man of many parts indeed.
