....there's more than one froup you know. As for what it has to do
with Mac addicts...well, I'm just showing off what you can do with teh
PC and a 6 year old version of Paint Shop Pro. Since you bring it
up...I'll put up a challenge to the Mac heads. Take one of the bases
(either mine or the original) and reverse engineer your own...let's
test yer skillz! Granted most major graphics proggies that are
available on teh PC are also available on teh Mac, however despite
that, the point I'd like to show is that Mac users are generally
deficient, unproducing, talentless fuckwits (there are a few
exceptions). Now then, if you'd like to uh..."advocate" the Mac
religion and try and sell it to people...well now, here's your big
chance, show all the unbelievers that Mac Lusers have just as much
skill as PC users...or don't. `, )

And if there are any more fuckwitted <strike>questions</strike> whines
about topic relevancy I've prepared the following primer:

A26 and AAVFFF - my home froups, A26 is all about technology and how
it applies to...well anything really, from graphics to networking to
web design to you name it. And Flonkers are generally artistic peeps
and we like all sorts of art in all sorts of mediums.

As for alt.html, well that froup isn't JUST about HTML (wouldn't be
much to it if it was), but more generally about web coding and web
design. Graphic design is apart of web design.

The two graphic froups should be obvious, since the post is about
graphics.

There now, see that wasn't too difficult...oh, but I guess you won't
have anything more to whine about now...tsch...gee what did I do!
