Eventually........


All singing, all dancing computer! Does everything...well almost!
-
It has taken a week but finally I am up and running again. A lot of the time has been taken up putting back the programs I use and the hardware - printer, scanner, etc - but something I put back on didn't go down well with the computer and it all went tits up so poor Martin had to re-format AGAIN! But this time I was exceedingly careful and so far, so good! Hopefully it will all hang together and I can get back to my quilting, sewing, reading, having fun.....
-
I have no email addresses because in all the cafuffle they disappeared so if anyone who likes to keep in touch with me or just wants to, sends me their email addy I'll be well chuffed! In fact I'll be delighted as otherwise it will take me ages to collect them all again. (email me:valeri.b@ntlworld.com) Into every life a little rain must fall but I feel as if I've had a deluge and I'm soaking! Why is it that of all things mechanical computers can affect one's quality of life so much. It was a bit like losing a hand for me. I use EQ5, Artista software and art packages such as Photoshop and without them I'm lost.

If anyone reading this is an EQ5 expert I need help. I've saved everything and got it back into the program successfully but although I have the fabrics I scanned in for my latest quilt in there they arn't showing up in the library. How can I save them into a library when I haven't got the original scans? Can I save them from the sketchbook? I really really don't want to have to scan the fabric in again as it took so long! Again, any help will be greatly appreciated!

  1. Can't help with the EQ question, sorry, as I've sold mine. We are SO dependent on computers now, I hate it if I can't use mine. Well done Martin for his rescue job.
