Flickr sucks hardcore, lets just start with that.

A friend convinced me to try out flickr, and while I liked it due to the fact that I could instantly post my pictures to Tumblr, it SUCKS for EVERYTHING else. So, I'm going to post my photography on both pages again, I have A LOT I need to upload to DevArt because I was gone for so long.

It's official, premium's over. Doesn't really bother me, I'll still be posting new pictures, when I take them.

There's the possibility of me getting a new camera at the end of this school year.

I'll also hopefully be getting a new computer, a laptop, during summer, I'm working in my Dad's shop, making some money. So, new computer, much better than the one I have now, Photoshop (hopefully CS5 when I get the laptop) should run really well on it.

Um... Yeah, that's it, just wanted to update my journal for the first time since I said bye to your guys. Sorry 'bout that.

So, for people who actually care to read my Journals, I'm leaving.

It's not like I was actually a deep community member, it's not like I'm a great photographer, and it's not like I write great journals.

I'm leaving because I, for one, don't take any new photos, I've barely picked up my camera in months... I guess you've probably noticed if you've looked.

I'm leaving because it's a drain on my pocket, premium isn't that expensive, but it's still money coming from me, and I need all the money I can get.

I don't want to turn this into a depresso emo thing, in fact I've been doing that with things way to much lately, I just wanted to tell anyone who actually reads this Journal and watched me because they thought I was a decent photographer, that I won't be posting anything more.

Actually... I /might/ post some stuff in the future, but I doubt it.

Oh another thing, my main computer crashed with photoshop, so there's another reason right their stuff won't be posted, until I fix it.


UPDATE: I feel like a total prick for even having posted this, but oh well. I'm not leaving I guess XD, I kinda am getting back into photography, and I love DevArt to much to leave :3, I have canceled my Premium Membership although... it seriously hasn't run out yet, so I'm like ???

I fail and feel so blah =/.

That Windows 7 review is just a LITTLE bit behind XD, not that it matters, no one looks at this =/.

Um, Windows 7 is... okay. It's not that great but it's better than Vista, I'll tell you that.

It's got a lot of the same security that Vista had so I'm finding that I will accidentally start something not as an admin and then have to redo all my work again when I'm saving something to /Program Files or another protected folder.

The UI is amazing, really easy to use and get used to, and the (pointer movements? Forgot what they are called) REALLLLYYYY come in handy, great for writing essays or doing projects.

It has started to run slower. Really slow actually. I've defragged only a few times since I've started using 7, but it doesn't tell me I have a large percentage of fragmentation. Might be because I have the RC version, but I don't think so. (or because my computer is 4 years old and only registers a like... 3.5 rating XD)

Um... what else... Oh, the changing wallpaper feature is awesome :D, yeah XD.

There's a Startup folder in the >All Programs area, I don't know if that was in Vista or not, but it can come in real handy.


All in all I rate Windows 7 in
usability: 8
look: 10
feel: 10
awesome stock wallpaper: 10
overall: 9

Compared to XP
usability: 9
look: 7
feel: 10
stock wallpaper: 2 (seriously they sucked)
overall: 8.5 maybe (I'm not averaging these)

Oh, and you're going to have to get used to some different folder layouts, like, instead of /Documents and Settings/(user name) it's /users/(user name).
Also, the boot screen is way cooler than Vistas :D:D:D:D:D.


...I have no idea, I'll edit this if I think of anything else.


Other news:
I haven't been working on any new Journal skins AT ALL, oh well =/.
Photography has also gone to blah, haven't done anything for the past forever =/.

So, I'm GETTING to making a Windows 7 review, but I just haven't actually done it yet =/. I will tell you, that it has been getting slower :C, kinda annoying but meh, still faster than XP.

Anyways, I'm fixing my room up right now, I have a queen sized bed that takes up like 3/5ths of the whole room lol, so I'm going down to I think it's a twin, I unno, who cares. But yeah, I'm making the area next to my desk my white backdrop area, and I'm going to be bringing my keyboard up here sooner or later because I really need to work on getting better on that thing.

I'm planning on saving up for a Canon EOS Rebel XS, of course it's going to be refurbished 'cause that's like SUPER cheap, fer rizzle. But yeah, I'm going to start saving up, I probably won't be able to buy it until like December, but oh well, it will be my Christmas present to myself XD.

Also, check out my newest photo, I didn't take it my friend did, and isn't is awesome :3. I <3 it a lot, LUFF YOU TAYLOR!

Um.... yeah, so that's it I think...
