1. We admit we
are powerless over the need to create graphics and that our life revolves
around "making one more graphic before I _______." (insert one: "go to
bed, feed the cat, cook supper, go to work...")
2. We believe that
a power greater than ourselves exists, and it's name is PaintShop Pro.
3. We have made
the decision to turn our lives and what skill we have over, to the care
of graphics utilities, that they may help us create that which we cannot
do on our own.
4. We have made,
and continue to make, a searching and fearless inventory of the web to
find copyright free graphics, and also of our computers, that we may delete
old graphics to make room for new ones.
5. We admit that
we cannot make good, modem friendly, graphics without the help of Gifwizard
and L-view Pro.
6. We are entirely
ready to let any graphics utilities we can find remove all defects from
our graphics.
7. We humbly ask
that our computers not crash due to all the graphics stored therein.
8. We have made
a list of all the persons who make better graphics than we do and are
willing to try and outdo them.
9. We admit our
jealousy of those that make better graphics than we do and appeal to them
whenever possible to teach us how they did it.
10. We continue
to take inventory of our hard drives and web sites and promptly remove
any "amateur" ("how could I have thought that was good?") graphics that
we find.
11. We seek, through
"help files" and source code, to learn every nuance of other's secrets
so that we will always be making better graphics.
12. We have had
a spiritual awakening as a result of stealing other's ideas. We have tried
to help all other novice graphic junkies to make better graphics by sharing
our knowledge (but not enough that they make better graphics than us).
