Can Somebody Help Me?

Honestly,these first five months of 2009 had made me really,really depressed.Really,really sad.And angry nonetheless.And I'm mad at myself for not be able to channel it to a positive way properly,plus I'm the type of person that end up keep it to herself in the end (and that's why this will be a short rant,really,heheh).I hate with the fact that why I have to go through all these obstacles meanwhile some people around me get it the easy way.And this wasn't the first time.And I started to think that the word 'reality' and 'lucky' doesn't bring any significance to me anymore.I've lost my faith to any thoughts of that.

Firefox + Google Chrome = OTP

Call me a screw-loose if you want to,but I love surfing the net using both of that browsers at the same time.You might read reviews on either of them already,some might say that Firefox is way better,bla bla bla;or vice versa..to me,they are meant for each other! Now,I was thinking,if there's a human version of them,I wonder who could that be...hmmm.

Okay,I know you're wondering how come I could be such a screw-loose for saying this? No doubt,Chrome's really fast.And yeah,I agree on that! What I really adore about Chrome is that whenever I downloading files,it's never been easier.In terms of the speed,I mean.Based on my experience,almost 90% of the time I managed to downloaded the files on a slow Internet connection (the important keyword here is patience,guys).On the other hand,with Firefox,it was like a 50%-50% chances,even when I have implemented my patience (for your information,my patience factor is waaay less than the average human).

Firefox's been my favorite since.....*fails to remember when*.Anyway,it's never been this cool that this browser can be personalized from the plugins,themes and up to search engines of our choice! Thank goodness for this amazing creation! One of my favorite plugin is Adblock Plus (*pokespokespokes* the scattered ads on the blogosphere).Unfortunately,Chrome doesn't implement personalized-plugin-feature.And so,the ads are visible while surfing.

Anyway,this is just a review by an Internet junkie-that's me.It's all up to you and your browser of your choice.Most importantly,don't force your computer/laptop if you're intended to try out both Firefox+Chrome at the same time,especially when your system's spesification is not at the maximum level (mine ain't too,although I wished for a Sony Vaio or an Apple notebook :P).Results may vary,guys.Keep that in mind.

Alternatively,I would suggest that you try either one of them,especially for those who are new to both browsers.Since they're freeware..yeah,whatever rocks your boat.

Whoa...Photoshop CS4??

Let's see,I've been using CS3 almost 6 months now.So far,so good.When I heard (sometime at the end of 2008) that CS4 had released,I was stunned.Well,I hope that it won't happen soon.I'm referring to the situation where I wanted to download brushes,only knowing that I can't use it because CS3 doesn't support brushes that is made in a higher version of Photoshop...unless the brush maker provide image packs.But then it's an another story altogether...

Slightly off-topic this one,I noticed a trend among some of these graphics-related resources site.

Yay factor: They provided lots of pretty brushes!

Nay factor: When I clicked the link which says 'brushes',I found out it wasn't in the form of .abr OR .jbr! It's in image packs,wtf.

What's the big deal,Angela? Okay,lemme get this straight.The word 'brushes' and 'image packs' are spelt differently,and so they give a different meaning,although technically,they are connected.I've never felt this cheated,really.Most likely,I'll end up won't save the image pack(s),even if its pretty anyway.I just hate doing the 'define brush presets' thingy.Plus,if it does exist in the form of image packs,then how does the 'image' on the 'image packs' appeared?

Owh,never mind.Let me give way to Shikamaru and his very famous line,because he knows exactly how I felt that time.

Here is a suggestion for those of you out there to look less idiotic.

a) Replace with the word 'brush' link in your site with 'image packs' or 'image packs for brushes'.See? that's clear and concise.Optional feature,tell your visitors reason(s) that you provide image packs.

Oh yeah,my last paper was yesterday..so today,I spent my half day here in the cyber cafe.And I'll be heading back home tomorrow for 1 month+ semester break..but before that,I've posted some of my designs at my LiveJournal:
