Sat down at my 'old' computer with the new mother board and tried using Photoshop exclusively to work on an image from April before I forgot how to use the software. Truth is, it's the only software I was able to reload for the moment. Now I kind of wish I had just gotten a new tower with more memory and a faster speed, but I would have had to give up Windows XP. Maybe I'll have a little time to spend here soon.

Beautiful photograph, Cindy. So Saved & Faved instantly!

About computers: I have two DT computers, one with XP and one with Windows7. The comparison is nost honest because the one with W7 is a newer so faster one with much more memory, but I still think that W7 is better because lots more of (improved) possibilities.

Regards, Cornelius.

Lovely image of the daffodils with their different colours Cindy. I have windows 7 now since about 20 months and I must say that it beats XP in speed and easy operation.

I'm still using Windows XP Cindy, and love it so I think you made a good decision keeping the old tower, your be able to reload the old software no problem.

Such pretty flowers with good colour. (o:

This is a lovely photo Cindy and it is great to see you posting.
I agree with what is said about Windows 7. I have used it for a long time now and it is easy to use and faster the Win XP.

Soft and lovely shot Cindy. I understand your dilema as I delayed getting a new computer for a year to keep XP but the faster processor in the new'puter and Windows 7 have my old photoshop program working better than ever. It's been a month now but I'm used to 7.

This is a great capture of these Daffs! Great DOF too - an ideal entry into the contest. Im still working with XP at home, but windows 7 at work. I guess Im sort of used to them both. As long as I can still do my photo's at home, then Im happy!

Quite beautiful, and in a well balanced composition. Don't care for the border, but that's no surprise. Not that it isn't color complimentary. It simply attracts attention away from the subject, and the subject is already pushing it's borders.

My dear Cindy, oops dear agent SALEE,
This is very beautiful image.
BTW
With my new computer with Windows 7 my old version [not mine but a gift all the same] of PhotoShop would not work at all. So I have changed to other kinds of software which were, of course, free. I am not going to waste money on anything instead of treats etc for my dearest little doggie LOL

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
