| | Thanks, Alan, Kiska, and Patricia. I've been working hard in Painter lately. If I live to be 200, I might just master it!  |

| | | Finally pulled out a book to learn about Painter, as I have been unable to do anything other than make a mess with this program so far. So here is my first attempt using Painter after reading a few instructions. By nature am a feet in first person, and learn on the fly rather than read any documentation, reminds me of a tin of varish I purchased, that on the lid stated "when all else fails, read the instructions"
