As I write this, Jennifer Daniel is facing rival Jillian “Not Jill” Tamaki in a live round of Layer Tennis. That’s a competitive sport in which two designers take turns altering each other’s work while online onlookers judge the results for style, wit, and Photoshop chops.
Today’s match is at http://layertennis.com/090410/. Or you can see today’s (nearly) completed qualifying matches:
- Zeilenga vs. Ebarb, billed as “a tale of two cities,” namely Sheldon, Iowa against Brooklyn, New York.
- Walsh vs. Kelleher, a Brit-Kiwi matchup.
