Yes. The previous avatar was Maleficent in her dragon form, but I think it was too small for anyone to see. I'd still like to crop this one so that maybe Maleficent will be easier to see, but I need to wait until we can afford the student version of Photoshop, which is aproximately 1/3 of the retail price.

Many thanks to Eric who found the pic and posted it on his site so I can use it.

eh, if all you want to do is crop a picture then you can get a demo version of PSP that will do that for free.

Forget perfectionism: go with impatience-ism Photoshop takes WAY too long to load just to crop one little pic.

:) Depends on the speed of your processor. I've never had that problem myself, and I was working on a 3 yo computer. However, that was an old version of Photoshop.

How much RAM do you have on your machine? And which processor?

Oh, like I'm supposed to know that.

256 mb of RAM and a celeron, as far as I know.
It's a Dell Inspiron 2600

Hmm, thanks. I don't know why it would run so slow on your computer, but it is a good thing to watch out for if I ever get it.

PS will ALWAYS take longer to load than PSP. It's jsut a bigger program.

That's not the point.

That's the point. The slowness of PS, not it's slowness in relationship to another program.

And I'm beating this to death because . . . I don't know.

I have PS 7. It loads perfectly fine and quickly. I would say that they both run at about the same frequency.
