This article on emailing gave 32 tips on etiquette. Although many of the tips were common sense, I found a few of them very informative and helpful. For instance, "Make it personal." An email should be personally addressed and include personal content. Mass emails aren't very appealing. Templates can be used to save time however. If a company is asked the same question multiple times, such as directions to it's building, or how to subscribe to a newsletter, templates can be pasted into the email.
Another way to make an email sound more personal is to use the active voice instead of the passive voice. "We will process your order," is more personal than the passive, "your order will be processed today."
Another tip was to use the Bcc: field rather than the To: field. If the Tl: field is used, the recipient knows to whom the email has been sent and in the case of a mass email, it's not as personal. It also publicizes someone elses email address without permission.
Original Superman
Edited Superman
I used opacity, the eraser, and the clone stamp to add the red cape. I used the black and white function to make the cape stick out.
Rotten Apple
Good Apple
Here I used the clone stamp feature to fix the rotting part of the apple. I turned down the saturation to make the picutre less yellow. I used the paint brush to write "good apple" on the board and I used the lasso and paint bucket to change the color of the shadow.
