Hello from an Old Soldier

[crutledge]

My name is Charlie and I am retired after 30 years in the US Army and 15 Years as a Government Contractor.

For a hobby to keep me busy, I am a Book Maker. Ebooks, that is. I format books in the Public Domain and post them to mobielread.com for anyone to read.

This has brought me eventually to Photoshop. I started with GIMP but it has too many limitations and promised upgrades.

I saved my pennies and bought Photoshop (with a hefty military discount) and it is not as difficult in most cases as I thought. I use it for formatting illustrations, including captions into the image, and building covers.

Like any new user, I have questions and hope to find some answers here. I hpoe to find some answers here.

Thank you,
Charlie

Hi, guys,

No wonder I'm having problems with PS. I can't get into the forums.

Attached is an image of what I get when I try to enter any forum.

I've got intresting bug with psg forum and googlechrome today too. I've been redirecting to facebook.
Reason is that links somehow remaded to start with facebook as root.
So first what came in mind was clear all hostory, cokies, etc. It helped.
Try it.
