(Yet Another Well-meaning Newbie)

I've been lurking for a week or so now and finally decided to come out and introduce myself. I am a writers, web designer, programmer, and amateur photographer. I am also a wife and mother.

Lately I'm also on the unemployment lines. I guess that gives me time to hone my skills but I'd rather be honing them while getting a paycheck. I work with both PhotoShop and PaintShop Pro, moving back and forth between them simply because while there are many things PhotoShop does better than PaintShop Pro, there are still a couple of things that PaintShop Pro can do that PhotoShop can't do.

Since employers don't seem to be knocking down my door, I have been spending my time lately on re-designing my web site. I've finished the main part of it and am working on a new photo album.

I'm looking forward to learning from the rest of you and maybe even getting brave enough to enter a contest or two.

Howdy, wewlcom to [pa], I love the acronym!

Anyone brave enough to use PSP (like you and ... me) should have no problem entering the contests, it takes a lot less bravery :p

Hope you're time on the unemployment line is short and your time here, long! Really looking forward to seeing you around the community! Be sure to have fun and if you have any questions be sure to ask (I've learned that from personal experience!)
