My name is Dave Fitzpatrick and I have been into photography (as an amateur) for my whole life and into computers…well…since before computers became personal. I use Photoshop extensively for general photo clean-up, for photo-art, and also as a tool to help make special effects for my other passion which is video slide shows. For these shows I use Photodex Producer and often post my special effects to the Photodex sharing site which is located at www.photodex.com where my shows can be found by searching on fitz9016.
My other great passion is writing special effects software. I try to come up with unique effects which cannot be found other places and I try to write programs which make Gee Whiz effects both simple to do and affordable. I am the author of VisiSketchPro and HighLighterPro which can be found at www.mediadigitronics.com . Examples of what these programs do can be found at that site as well. Occasionally, I will also post specific, one-of-a-kind effects for download and free use by anyone who wants them.
It is my hope that I can continue to contribute to the multimedia arena in general and the video slide show community in particular. The multimedia space made possible by the web enables people across the world to share there lives and artistic creations with others in a way that was totally impossible just a few short years ago. I hope that the work I do in some small way helps to promote that communication.

Hey Dave!
This looks great. I linked your blog to my site along with your other one.
Cute kitties!
This is a very nice blog. Well done and thanks for the link to my Proshow videos.
It’s interesting that your kitty is named Issy as we have a small dog named Lizzy, which started out as Isabelle.
