photoshop success~~~
As always, piracy wins. I've been fighting with Adobe, because I fucking pay for a subscription, but the authenticity checker stopped working for Windows 7. So even though I was using Photoshop 2020, which is compatible, it couldn't get through the "did you pay for this????" check. So, I tried running CS2, which I used for a huge chunk of time, hoping it would be enough.
IT WAS NOT.
Apparently, I'm just used to a lot of the features in newer PS that CS2 just doesn't has. I've been just dealing, but today I decided that no, I don't want to live like this anymore...mostly because I wanna make my new layout but I wanna work on my actually nice computer. My laptop has continued to have problems, and I don't wanna have to do the wipe/reinstall thing, even though it'll probably fix it.
Maybe.
Who can say???????
But yeah, I eventually just went over to r/Piracy, found links to some torrent trackers, picked one I liked, and found a cracked copy of Photoshop 2020. It was done downloading and installing in under half an hour. WHYYYYYY did I spend so long fighting with Adobe about this?????????? I'm just frustrated because I legit pay for this and I can't fucking use it on my computer. Should I maybe upgrade Windows? Probably! But I like Windows 7!!! I hate change!!! XD
Anyway. I have Photoshop now, as well as all my brushes & etc. So I guess I have no excuse...except that I have to go through the whole manga to find images I wanna use :TTTTT
