why did i think i would have NO problems whatsoever with the new computer? and with the two most important things: the scanner installation and photoshop. on the last day of my small_gifts extension. i think i tried to install the damn thing 7 times before giving up and taking it upstairs so i could connect it to my sister's computer and scan the drawing there. i tried with the cd, and i downloaded the drivers. twice. my cousin was supposed to burn photoshop on a cd for me (mine was so scratched it couldn't even be read), but he never got in touch with me. i even got infected with a couple of trojans, no doubt from all the crap i downloaded and dubious websites i visited in a panic. thankfully my sister had cs3 in a portable version, but it crashes every time i tried to use the save for web option. and it's in spanish. i've been using the english versions since i started using photoshop in 2003, i still can't get used to using it in my own language.

anyway, it's done and posted. i hope i can fix the scanner problem soon because i don't want to beg my sister to use her computer every time i want to scan something. and i have a ton of things to scan.
