Testing the Photoshop Programs

Good.
Evening.

​From Philadelphia....

   So I've been testing these Corel Photosuite Programs, ranging from the PaintShop Pro 2022 to Painter Essentials 8 and a number of others.
   The 1st-thing is the Fact that, AS I FEARED, this Silver Laptop's graphics card needs to be replaced. That is already slated for NEXT MONTH'S AGENDA, however!?
   THE GOLD LAPTOP, is slated TO BE BROUGHT BACK UP & RUNNING, THIS MONTH!
   Now? 
   What's important to that is because the Gold Laptop HAS A BRAND NEW VIDEO CARD ALREADY IN IT...!
   The Gold Laptop is the Laptop that was used to get MOST OF THIS WEBSITE UP & RUNNING & is the one that I had where the OS crashed & burned, destroying years of work, as the info was UNRETRIEVABLE.
   -_-
   Mind You, I forgot that THIS WAS A MAJOR EVEN THAT COST ME LITERAL YEARS OF TIME. 
   My OLD DESKTOP?
   Had an OLD Photoshop program on it which I used to touch-up & finish THIS DRAWING:

Byron Maxwell
CAM-87

   And all these are?
   Are simple lens flare effects from that program.
   That Desktop was stolen by the Slum Lady & Slum Lord when I was trying to leave from the Slumhouse that I was renting a room from.
   They didn't like the Fact that I was completely honest with Them when I pointed out to Them that I was only stuck RENTING A ROOM FROM THEM?
   Because I couldn't find a Dayjob fast enough to pay for My Then, HINTERLANDS-APARTMENT in Upper Darby, so...?
   Instead of simply ACCEPTING that I couldn't, I kept trying to find a NEW DAYJOB THAT WOULD PAY ME ENOUGH TO KEEP MY HINTERLANDS-APARTMENT, instead of simply accepting my situation & spending My Time LOOKING FOR SOMEPLACE WITHIN THE PAY RANGE FOR THE DAYJOB I HAD AT THAT TIME, which was A WENDY'S.
   And specifically, it was the Wendy's on 69th Street in Upper Darby.
   The Slum Lady-&-Slum Lord thought I was another one of THEIR USUAL BLACK-AMERICAN VICTIMS, as far as renting goes.
   But the moment I started moving in all kinds of computer shit & such & then ALWAYS PAID ON TIME & SPENT MY TIME UP IN MY ROOM.
   Focused on REACHING THIS POINT I'M AT NOW, well...?
   When I said IT WAS TIME FOR ME TO GO...!?
   I was thee ONLY TENANT ACTUALLY PAYING THEM.
   -_-
   So they WEREN'T KEEN ON ME FINDING OUT THEY WEREN'T EVEN LEGAL AS A ROOMING HOUSE, so I told Them simply cut My Rent in half, I'll pay that for 2 months & then BE GONE, nah.
   BECAUSE CRIMINALS GONNA CRIMINAL!!!!!
   So in the End THEY STOLE MY DESKTOP.
   So the programs I just got ARE LITERALLY BRAND NEW & IT WASN'T LIKE I'D BEEN USING THE DESKTOP PROGRAM FOR ANYTHING INTRICATE, so!?
   I'm LITERALLY RELEARNING FROM SCRATCH!
​   So today I was testing around with the Painter Essential Program & did some basic shit:

   I worked on the eyes & tried to regain My Footing with LAYERING.
​   Then I moved on to coloring the Face....

   SPOILER ALERT!!!!!
   It is NOT GOOD FOR ME to do this kind of work ON A LITTLE-ASS LAPTOP SCREEN LIKE I'VE BEEN DOING DURING THE DAYJOB...!
   My Eyes HAVE NOT BEEN HAPPY WITH ME.
   But as You can see I filled in the fangs, the whites of her eyes are now light-yellows!
   So on & so forth!
   Then I decided to do some body-work coloring of her hardpoints & filling out fur & working on her ears & such...! 

   So that's a QUICK-UPDATE!!!!
   My Dinner is here, so I need to eat.
   And get some actual sleep with Auto-waking & having to go in to the Dayjob....
