2010 - new date, same old.

Hm... I think this may be my first post of 2010!

So, what's new? I pretty much passed chemistry (not the exam yet), though am considering retaking the test, to get a better overall grade. I've got straight As for the lab exercises, but Cs for the test, which unfortunately count towards 66% of the grade. :(

Much as I love Photoshop, it's not the most computer-friendly graphic software. I have been testing Seashore, which is usable, but only a step above Paint. Now, if anyone has any recommendation, I would love to hear them. I need software (preferably free) that reacts to pen pressure, has layers (though I'm flexible about that) and most importantly works on a Mac. I tried ChocoFlop, too, and it looks pretty good, though it is just a preview and works kinda weird.


I know there is someone on my Flist who watches Dollhouse. Now I'm of the opinion the show turned out splendid, especially the latter part of the second season - everything falls apart nicely. Especially in last night's episode. :) It also works best if you ignore everything you know about Joss Whedon shows, mind. There's little funnies, little snark, plenty of existentialism, existentialist angst and mind-screwing.



I don't much care for cell-shading. It's annoying!

Why yes, there is a storyline attached to it, why do you ask?

... for the love of god, someone take it off my hands (and head)!

I don't know if it works in mac but have you ever tried Paint Tool SAI? some may say is like photoshop, but while photoshop is commonly used for manipulation, SAI is made for real painting, and specially if you have a tablet, is very easy to use and learn~ and if you hear some opinions, eeeveryone loves the way the colors blend in it.it almost paints on its own~

I support this this!

Sadly, Paint Tool SAI is for Windows only. :( This makes me a sad panda...

I do love Photoshop, but it is too tasking for the computer. PTS, unfortunately, appears to be Windows-exclusive, which is a shame. :(

awww! shame! SAI isn't a tasking program at all, is very light and shuts off and on instantly =(

Damn. Maybe I should think about getting a PC next...
