I used it for a gallery of bits of some of my writing. Then I discovered that I didn't know enough to keep my stuff safe (LONG time back now) so I "went to school" on that. And took the site down. Odd thing though - it was that site that got one of my short (VERY) stories published (well, assuming they ever managed to do so....)

It was a little book of under 1k word submissions, most of which were - outré - to say the least, from a small pub house in AU. My little tale was.... nothing like any of the rest of it.... Someone who played Skyrim and posted on the old beth forums found my site online (after I'd long taken it down - so someone in China or wherever had scraped it), and when I mentioned something about the little tale, she put two and two together and contacted me.

I did a DMCA so they took the scraped site offline, and she hooked me up with the pub house. Anyway, I'll post the story where it belongs.... but this is the reason for CopyScape of course. Which I didn't know about at the time....

I know video tutorials aren't your thing.. but if you are having issues with something on GIMP... This guy Magical Fantasy Tutorial is really good, uses both his voice and screen buttons.. highlights and stuff.. he's clear and.. well I like him more than a lot of the kids.. and some of the others.

Thanks, I bookmarked it. My brain just doesn't learn well from vids - but having it as adjunct to print tuts might be a good thing!

What I do is watch it once.. so I know what is happening, then write out my own step by step directions..

That is generally what I am following, those directions, it's just easier for me to follow along that way.

Well, I like it. I don't find it overly "busy". It has a very Celtic feel....
