But, altho I use notepad to do most of my forms and writing functions. I do not know how to use this program. Is someone available to help out the desperately dense? But brave enough to ask! </p> <p>I am a 3D graphics artist, so I am not so much unable to work the tech end of a puter, just unsure where and how to start. I could use a good mentor. Any offers? I mainly need to not only learn how to maintain my upcomming web site (*add pics and text, which I sort of know, but am not comfortable with) and to learn more desktop publishing.</p> <p>ThanX for any support and advice.<br /> Ariana </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/3572#post-37410 Sun, 06 Jul 2008 13:40:33 +0000 billybob1 37410@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Oh ok :)</p> <p>I did not know of this. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/3572#post-37408 Sun, 06 Jul 2008 13:30:58 +0000 copmom 37408@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>billybob1.. maybe it's because they're still in the midst of changing servers?

My problem comes from having to share 1 computer with the other 5 people in my house! Oh, and then there is a small problem of slower that dial-up access! :) I usually just stick with the games around 15 MB or smaller. Too much bigger and they take 3 or more hours to DL.
