You're pretty damn high tech for an old fart! I'm only 62, and I totally wasted (due to befuddlement) my Christmas gift of a few years ago....Paint Shop Pro 8. It's never been used.

Doctoring pics is something I'd love to be able to do.

I took a couple of online college courses for the Photoshop CS3 but that just gave me the basics. I actually learn more from online tutorials for free.

I have Paint Shop Pro 7 too. It is simpler than Photoshop but still a good program. I tried reading tutorials, they just confused me so I just messed around a lot. You can't hurt anything, go for it. Paintshop is set up different from Photoshop, the toolbars are different but most of the terminology is similar. You can do a lot with basic adjustments and the clone tool.

There was a period when I was too sick to go anywhere. I just messed with photo editing. The kids tried to keep me supplied with books but I read fast and even used books get expensive. I'd go nuts with nothing to do and I hate TV.

I work on the basis that it’s O.K. to be poor if your resourceful LOL. Being broke and clueless leads to poverty!
