eww… two big concerns. Never good when you have to second guess. Other than that, though, it’s pretty cool? Did you take a look at any of the competing applications like, Buffer?

Love it… Fun and challenging!
My guess…???

Hi LD,
Thanks for posting your question! Just to clarify, are you trying to input your city on your firm profile or the job listing? Let me know your firm’s name, so I can take a closer look.
Also, we are in the process of a redesign, so your feedback is very helpful. Thanks again!

Interesting to know. Does that work well for you?

Andrew Spiering replied to the topic What tools do you use to manage multiple social media accounts? in the forum TECHNOLOGY 11 years, 3 months ago

Audra! This is great. Interesting to hear a double screen beats HootSuite. When you use your mobile device, is there an app that you use to manage your accounts? Or, do you just switch from one to the next?

Wow. That’s impressive. So, you don’t use anything like HootSuite?

Hi Cara,
Great question! I have used the KIP 3100 in the past and have liked how it performed for the most part. It is a scanner/plotter combo with slim dimensions that work well in a small space because you can stand it up against a wall. The only two problems that I encountered were the scan quality and the paper feed.
The scan quality is n…[Read more]

Glad to help! Let us know how it goes…

Andrew Spiering replied to the topic Looking for a vine for dry shade in the forum PLANTS & HORTICULTURE 11 years, 5 months ago

Great question. Here are a couple that I have used in dry shade around oaks:
Ficus pumila (Creeping Fig)

Creeping Fig does well in sun or part shade and takes little irrigation (depending on where you live). It can cling to walls and does not need any support. Though, you should keep it pruned back. I have seen it become top heavy and pul…[Read more]

So glad that you shared this! Thanks!

Andrew Spiering replied to the topic What do you think of my portfolio cover? in the forum PORTFOLIO & RESUME 11 years, 5 months ago

Beautiful photo. I agree with Brian Lin, and recommend losing the “of works”. It is already implied and it also make the “I” look like a “T”.
Also, I have to agree with Ernst Glaeser. The cover is beautiful but it does not communicate “I am a Landscape Architect” instead “I am an awesome photographer!” Something to consider…

Hey April,
Check out Plant Lust. They have a good plant database, information, and photos. I also turn to Monrovia and San Marcos as go-tos.
Hope this helps!
