So... what was so important? Well, I had struggled with a problem and it seemed that I wasn't going to get a resolution. I hate to give up; it's both a blessing and a curse. When my hard drive failed last month, I had to reinstall everything. I had been using a Photoshop Plugin from Topaz Labs for a couple of years and it was one of my faves. However, after the hardware failure, I lost a ton of emails - one of them being the license key for this product. I'd searched everywhere for it for nearly two days. This particular product has been replaced by two new products; which, if all else failed, I could purchase those and have the same capabilities - but... :( So, I sent an email to Topaz Labs and they re-sent the license key. Yay!!!
Moral of the story... keep the licensing information in a safe place.
What does the above photo have to do with this? It won a couple of contests and was processed using the PS filter that I now have back in my toolbox. :)
