3. It is quite possible someone contacted your own non Pinoy authorities and they put in the request. That is because you were not detained or shaken down.
4. Until you find out why you were denied entry, you are dealing in Lotto land. You don't say if you were photographed, finger printed etc.
5. If you have no idea why you were stopped. A few years ago, how are we supposed to know.
6. Isn't it odd you were denied entry and you have a Pinay fiancee?

Posts: 637Denied entry
So a few years ago, several years ago now actually, I was denied entry into the Philippines at the airport in Cebu. No clear reason was given. I was detained for a few hours, then put on a flight back to Hong Kong, where I was living at the time. My question is, what are the chances of this happening again? I have a new passport now, as my prior one expired. Anybody have any input on this type of situation? I honestly have NO idea why I was denied entry the last time and I'm going to visit my fiancee's family and I sure do not want this to happen again. Thanks in advance for any insight.

Posts: 451Actually, if you are in the US or another Asian country, you will have a better chance of finding a professional photo shop. In the US art shops, can do some stuff but they do offsite. Like Hobby Lobby on the cheap end. I think the uni student work might work but it depends on experience. Photoshop is expensive as are the computers or mac used by most companies. It is different from digital manipulation as most use very specialized tools.
If you are in a big US city, try firing up an app that looks for people to do contract or errands.

Posts: 451Your answer is in the question you asked. It depends on how professional you want or mean. Most design companies have staff that can do digital manipulation at a price. They also do design and output for old and new print / digital mediums.
Print / copy shops can also do digital manipulations but they don't want to spend too much time. They are cheaper than the design companies but want to quickly knock things out.
Smaller photo shops that used to print out photos and passport photos have the basic setup to do the stuff. It depends on how good the guy is behind the counter. In the past, purchasing some extra service or prints would be enough for the guy to do a quick 15 minute touch up.
Photoshop has a learning curve. There are apps with AI for mobile devices that do a pretty good for almost no cost.

Posts: 1056Photoshop Query
I need some Photoshop work for posters. Basically they are pictures of adult models, no private parts or copulation shown but I need the end result to be spicy and catchy and to have the artist's eye, something I am totally devoid of. Naughty but not X grade of maybe the standard of fiverr. I have seen lots of small Pinoy businesses doing such things but any time I have given memory sticks etc to such concerns, they have come back with multiple viruses as Pinoys seem to be a mixture of hopelessly bad and hopefully good. That said, from the little I've seen, they do seem to be good at knocking up fake IDs etc which are of no interest to me. Because of the sensitive X rateish nature of the work, I would prefer to deal in person than work through the likes of fiverr. Has anyone had any experience of such companies where you can walk in, discuss the project, give a legit order and get a reasonable job done?

Posts: 1056Turkey Giving Christmas Advice
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXZCDIJQpK4
Here is a nice American giving advice on living in the Philippines. He forgets the cost of his lady friend who nods away during the video. He also mentions buying a house. In her name I am sure they are both nice people and a nice couple but she probably figures she struck a very good deal, a constant cash flow. If he can afford it, well and good. He ladles his expenses in US $, instead of pesos. He talks about training regimes but she probably knows about that. He reckons $840,44,000 PHP a month, plus start up costs.
When the lady is asked to give her take, she goes on abut her schooling (but does not mention who is paying for it). Some informative comments, for and against.
