Yahoo!

So, I'm posting this from my brand-spanking-new Toshiba widescreen laptop. I finally went and bought a Toshiba at Best Buy the other night and had the pleasure of telling Dell where to stick their delays and cancelled that order.

I've spent the past few days loading software and transferring files. It's a drag and it seemed to take forever, but I think I'm officially DONE and working on the new one full time as of today. YAY! Very exciting stuff.

So I sat down to make a surprise freebie for you guys last night, only to have PSCS3 pitch a fit and not want to open. I had to uninstall and reinstall SEVERAL times before I could get it to take properly. That basically ate up my entire evening, so no designing was completed. I still have to reload my presets and stuff because those got wiped out in the process. Maybe tonight I'll get to be a designing fool. There is going to be a learning curve, because this software has a lot more doo-dads and bells and whistles than CS did. Still, I'm very excited to play.

For those of you in the U.S., I hope you have a fun holiday weekend planned. We're going to a cookout at our neighbors' house for a little while tomorrow and have some yardwork to get done. And maybe, just maybe, I'll get some freebies made. 'Cause I'm in a sharing mood.

I am so glad that you got your new computer and have it up and running!!! Hope that you enjoy using it, which I am sure you will. Is way better than sitting around waiting for that **** Dell.

Go, YOU! I've got a weekend without husband and child and had a huge spend up at my LSS...even tho' I am mainly digi! But with no one to squirt my glue on the carpet or use my chipboard as a coaster, I feel like gettin' a little dirty. Hope you have fun playing too!

great to hear you have your new computer at last. You will have to do a quick review of pscs3 to tell us cs2 users what the changes are....
Hope you have a great long weekend, here in Australia, it's Sunday right now and we are celebrating Fathers Day, have a good one ;-)
