*lol*  Yep.. a major case of using what you know!  *gives javvi the Award 
for best MS Paint artist*  It took me 4 1/2 years to even figure out 
Photoshop (since all I had was the bootleg and a not very helpful how-too 
book).. still hadn't taken a class in this yet, but at least I found an even 
better classroom-in-book deal for PS 6.  But, like you Javvi, I refuse to 
use anything else.  MS Paint totally boggles me, and the Gimp and Corel gave 
me fits.  So spolied with Adobe stuffs I am. :P

Awww...  Well, I sometimes feel like that too, in my New Media masters 
degree.  Everyone else at least had something to do with media/art/computers 
in their undergraduate degree.  Not me! But then the profs tell me just how 
great my ideas are, and I calm back down.  ;]

Yah!  You go girl... sometimes self study is the best way to go, cause you 
have time to learn it all.  (I'll admit I learned soooo much more about PS 
when I started making those Palace avatar dolls)
