You are welcome, of course. You know me all too well. ;D
CS3 is TOTALLY worth the upgrade for both Photoshop and Illustrator. I still only have CS1 at home but we have CS3 at work and I will sometimes go to the office in the evenings or on weekends to make walls there.
Oh, the PC comment has to do with the side of the screen that operating systems use for desktop icons, Windows to the left, Mac OS to the right. I don't always design with a bias for either format - its often a compositional thing, but I know the majority of computer users are likely on PCs and most Windows users I know have LOTS of icons on their desktops. Meaning they'd be all over the main image here, whereas on my Mac, say, all the icons end up in the empty area of the wallpaper. :\ That's why I said that - because it makes my wallpapers a little less functional for PC users.
I put my icons into quicklaunch, leave the rest in the start menu. Plus I'm not big on installing anything and everything, and remove all nonessential crap they put on prefab PC's anyways. My latest I got with no additional software, I was glad they finally let you pick what you want in it. I looked at barebone kits, but they were most costly than the customizable desktops. Honestly, I would never cough up the $$ for a Mac when for a fraction of that I can get a very fast XP machine and install Linux should I feel the need to play with visualizations. :p
I've been testing Linux distros, they have come along very nicely. I need to post screenshots.
As for art... my mini semester ends next week, hopefully after that I'll art some.

*nods sagely* I should. Quite frankly I am a bit disappointed at the minimal turnout. XP

That image just melts my heart. I love how you take the time to make me pretty wallpapers, clearly you're reading my moods :D
How does CS3 to previous PS versions or CS1? Do you think it's worth the upgrade? Not that I would part with my PSP5, just making conversation :D
Forgive the ignorant PC user, but why poor PC fans? What PC myth have I missed now? :p
