Hello, All.
I'm Forrest Richey
S[ometimes]AKA Ficus strangulensis and have been dabbling in the micropress and mail-art [most of my web presence is at IUOMA on ning] since 1990 and am considering adopting Affinity as my main image manipulation app.
[corel photopaint v9 keeps running afoul of windows-10's updates and, most recently, windows-10 'killed' my Canoscan 5600 scanner.]
I'm also running ubuntu 16.04 but do NOT want to port my workflow over to that 'box because I don't have the drivers required to use my printers and scanners.
Currently using windows-10 64bit and Corel Photopaint v9, Filter Forge v6 and Google's Deep Dream for altering images used in mail-art.
I had thought I was coming here to get the Affinity windows beta but apparently missed it so I'm waiting to see if I can justify the price without trying it.
I'm open to anyone's thoughts and feelings about my switching from photopaint and Corel Draw v9 to Affinity
Y'r [new] ol' Bud,
Fike
