My New Year's Resolution
15 years ago
So, it's a new year, and all that rot. Sorry this journal is almost a week late for the topic...I ran out of painkilers and my doctor was on holiday, so I couldn't do much other than lie in bed, ugh. I've finally got them refilled and I'm fine again now, though. Hooray!
Anyway, as you may have noticed, I've been really slacking off for awhile now. My New Year's resolution is to finish up my queue and start taking commissions again! I just recently installed Windows 7 on my new huge 1TB hard drive (got 'em for Christmas, I'm a nerd), so I'm still working on getting everything set up. My much smaller HD is still hooked up though as an extra drive, so I've still got my WIP art!
Surprisingly, Windows 7 really isn't giving me trouble, and I'm liking it a lot! I LOVE the new taskbar, especially the way you get a little mini preview when you hover over items. It makes it a lot easier to multitask while playing WoW...haha...and everything seems to run faster, oddly. Maybe it's the 64-bit thing?
So, sorry to keep everybody waiting! I'm gonna try to get this year off to a good start! Gettin' those badges done for Spotz and PlagueRat ASAP, and then I'll sort out how I want to handle public commissions. I'm really hoping that I can raise enough money from commissions to get the really annoyingly expensive new tablet I want!
Peace out, yo

7 IS faster than vista.. tho it sounds like the last one you had installed was XP cuz I had vista on my laptop before they did the upgrade to 7 for free hubbub. and boy do I love 7! its like XP and vista had a baby. I like that I can hover over the corner *show desktop* to hide the windows temporarily... to see where a file is on my desktop so I move or hide just one window X3. that and while I use it less you can shake a window and all the others poof, shake it again and they come back... and I never use the one similar to alt tab... but puts the windows across the screen diagonally to choose from.... ugh now I can't remember it lol

OP
What's this bit about the shaking things? Someone else mentioned to me before and I had no clue what they were talking about...I still don't know how to do this. D:> And what is it supposed to do..?
