High time I got 'Apophysis Glitches' off my front page!

It refers to an older version of Apophysis, though I expect it's still relevant. Maybe things will improve with Windows 7? Not that I'm rushing... I've had enough troubles with that laptop, and I'm not seeking out more before I have to!

I'm now using Apophysis 7X and 2.09; 7X is working well but 2.09 keeps crashing. It seems to crash less if I only have one variation checked in Options.

I don't mean this to turn into Apophysis Glitches II, though!

I have hundreds of older works in my folders -- Apophysis, Tierazon, Xaos, Bryce, Paint.net, Photoshop Elements etc; some of them I have been meaning to trot out to both dA and Caedes (though not the same wallpapers to both sites). Some are waiting on my desktop as I write this -- I meant to post them before this but was distracted. Anyway, they may appear over the next wee while.

Earlier, I reshuffled my Favourites gallery.

My 'Abstract' collection is getting quite big, so I'm slowly breaking it up into smaller folders. Pieces in my Bejewelled folder (for example) won't be in Abstracts any more. I need to slim it down! If you happen to be hunting for new deviations to feature on your journal, you might like a look -- there's variety there. I can't promise I got the categorization 'spot on' in every instance.

Not all my favourites appear in the main gallery... I was trying to make it easier to look at, without pages and pages to wade through without a break. (The ones at the back of a big collection probably never get seen!) So don't forget to visit the individual collections.

I'm unable to do a proper feature, as I'm not subscribed... but have been feeling lately that I don't have the heart to post some thumbnails and not others! It doesn't seem quite fair, and they are all beautiful works in their own different ways.

Thank you to my friends and watchers, both on dA and Caedes! I am quiet a lot, mostly because of our very low download limit. I looked into changing to another ISP but so far I haven't seen anything I want to put my trust in. Despite the silences and slow reactions, please know that I appreciate you all and enjoy your postings.

Hopefully you will find new friends and favourites through this journal entry! You can see my Favourites Gallery here.

I'm from the UK and enjoy all sorts of digital art: fractals, 3D, vectors/vexels, fantasy, science fiction, photomanipulations and so on.

I have a particular interest in desktop wallpapers, which is not how I started, exactly, but it's how I came online with my pictures and to learn new skills. I have a small cache of wallpapers on Caedes.net (under the name Tootles). If I could change that name, I would, but it's too late now!

At home I have two cats and a huge collection of bears. My latest hobby is Racing Frogs... I got up early this morning just in case I could buy a trap upgrade before the dragonflies of the day started coming in!

Perhaps that's also why I like it on dA... the madness, community and colourful dragonflies... though it can be overwhelming at times.

Current Residence: UK
Favourite style of art: Abstracts, 3D, photomanipulations, vectors
Operating System: Mac OS X
Wallpaper of choice: Walking with Orion by Moodflow
Skin of choice: My own
Favourite cartoon character: The Angry Beavers

Hi StarLite, glad to see you here! I don't post much here, but I've been thinking of posting some pictures just to let people know I've not given up on my dA account. ;-)

Same but opposite here .. I neglected caedes a bit for a while when I started experimenting here.. But I figured that the community there is wonderful and I decided not to leave it. :)

Glad to see you here as well and 'thanks for the watch' :D
