OVERVIEWAel (pronounced: “aYel”) Dabria is a man in this 50s who lives in an apartment alone. He requires no sustenance and exists solely to serve mankind. Periodically, an envelope is pushed under his door with directions and a name. Once received, he sets the timer on his watch for an 8-hour deadline in which he is to find the person’s whose name he’s been assign to and create a solution for what they need the most - to find a place to call home. Failure results in the assigned individual's journey to the afterlife, prolonging Ael's earthly sojourn.
Having endured this duty for 10 years, Ael reaches a breaking point.

Yeah, Canva is really easy, Leonardo Ramirez. I like the price for Canva Pro ($14.99 a month).

At some point, I’m going to have to try Pro, Maurice Vaughan. I haven’t used the pro version yet.

Canva Pro has great features, Leonardo Ramirez. I use the Picture Background Remover a lot.

I wonder how that feature compares with photoshop, Maurice Vaughan which is what I use to remove a background. I'll bet it's a lot quicker.

I can remove a background with Canva Pro in seconds, Leonardo Ramirez. but sometimes a part(s) of the picture will be missing. I think it depends on what type of picture I use. Do you ever have that issue with Photoshop?

I absolutely do, Maurice Vaughan. But it's pretty easy to enlarge the file and reduce the size of the tool for those hard-to-reach spots. That's why I go between the two.

That's cool, Leonardo Ramirez. I wonder if Canva Pro has that option. I'll check and see.
