Yup! This is a Jasc product (PaintShop Pro) with a plugin that
someone
has made for PSP and it's that which isn't working! :o(

There are alternatives to Microsoft and the whole Windoze thing, you
know.


Yup, but Windoze is the only OS I know how to use and my memory is so bad
that it's pointless even *trying* to learn something else! :o(

The last time I used Windoze on a regular basis was in 1995, and that
was Win 3.11. It's *great* not having to put up with all that crap -
especially since it's got a lot worse since those days.


Yup, Windoze 3.11 is what I was taught on and I've been using Windoze
ever since!

P.S. Although any computer is likely to make you scream at some point.
Although what's making me scream at the moment is iTunes's inability to
play .flac files directly, coupled with the inability of the flac
converter I found to put sensible metadata on to the files it outputs.
Translation: lots of bloody typing. Oh yes it can convert the files in
a flash, no worries there - there are some advantages to four fat and
fast CPUs and a multithreaded converter - but then it takes me twenty
times as long to type in the track names and whatnot. Harumph. I've
got a computer to do that for me, so why isn't it?


I wish I knew but that has just got wizzing over my head... sorry!
