Urgh, sometimes I hate it when companies release newer "better" versions of software when I liked the old one perfectly well and the new one is driving me nuts. Case in point: I had OpenCanvas 4.0 Plus on my computer before, and loved it. Went to download it again and had to download 4.5, the new version. Installed it, input my serial #, tried to use it, and it's pissing me off. I can't seem to get the same lines with it and the methods for changing brush sizes and stuff seem much more cumbersome. Maybe it's just me, I dunno.
*5 minutes later* Aha, victory. I had to go the less-than-legal route, but I have the old version now. Least I do still own the program properly and have a legal serial code and stuff. ^^; Had the same problem with Office 2003 - no way to legally download it now and input the serial code from the version I own, and I've lost the CD. If I ever find it I'll delete the illegal one and reinstall the legal one... could just upgrade to 2007, of course, but I don't want to go through the learning curve, particularly.
Wonder what's next on the list... *sigh* Working my way through my list of programs to re-install. Reading race in fandom meta whenever I get bored. XD Think I'll go have a bath or shower now... been in front of this computer virtually since I got home. o.o I missed you, baby. *hugs computer protectively*
