Post the Photoshop version you started with.  I was a 3.0 guy…list is here.
3.0 was and will always be my favorite. I saw that startup screen a million times.
p.s. Robert, is that you?
UPDATE: Yup, it’s Robert! :)

A little while ago, MOO were running a competition inwhich they gave me a unique discount code that could only be used by somebody who had never purchased from MOO before. If they used it, then I&#8217;d get entered into a draw where I could win a magnetic rope from Photojojo. So, I tweeted the code around (as you do) and didn&#8217;t really think much more about it until I got an email from MOO a couple of weeks ago telling me I&#8217;d won!As Photojojo are based in the US, it&#8217;s taken a little while for it to come but the magnetic rope appeared today! What is more awesome, however, is the fact that it came with a free little dinosaur!! I&#8217;ve not used the rope yet (as need to choose some photos to hang up) but it&#8217;s waiting on my bookshelf&#8230; and it&#8217;s being protected by the dinosaur which I&#8217;ve named &#8220;Humphrey&#8221;.

I’ve not used the rope yet (as need to choose some photos to hang up) but it’s waiting on my bookshelf… and it’s being protected by the dinosaur which I’ve named “Humphrey”.

If there’s a single (hugely impressive demonstration) of the speed and overall power of the iPhone 3G S, it’s this one. When this is going on in my dashboard mount, the iPhone almost becomes a safety hazard. The smoothness and agility with which the map pivots and spins, slyly and slowly as when a road follows a slight bend, or wildly when I bang a U-turn in a parking lot, it almost shocking. It’s not an update-update-redraw-update operation. The map pivots as smartly as the needle on an actual compass. It’s such a slick and impressive feat that I found myself sitting back to appreciate what was going on. “I’m looking at satellite imagery being pulled down dynamically via a 3G connection, upon which a road map is being drawn, upon which traffic status is being drawn, which is constantly moving and turning so that my current location is always dead-center and it’s always turned to face the right direction.” It’s truly one of those times when I’m grateful not to have been born in 1849.

This is a self-management experiment. Living by myself and reporting to no boss makes it easy to fall into a mindless routine. I have not been living up my potential as an ‘untethered creative person’. My lack of discipline has allowed me to drift into a hazy groove. I need some accountability.
Here are my “STANDARDS” for the next week. Each day, I aim to meet all of them, and will keep track of my success or failure.

Eat each meal within 1 hour of 9:30, 1:30, &amp; 8:00
One 3-hour creative block
One 1-hour book reading block

They are pretty ‘low’ standards. The question is, “Even with low standards, am I disciplined enough to stick with a plan for a whole week?” — If yes, next week it may evolve into a slightly more demanding form.
I will post the first week’s result here, next Sunday night. By then, there should be twenty-one check marks on there. Do you think I will get a perfect score?

Great idea, Jakob. I&#8217;m gonna try this (sans meals, which I don&#8217;t care about), too.
