Right, working from home today was actually not bad, and I'm settling into the new job, bits I need to learn and speed up on, but overall, not bad at all.

Of course, the advantage of working from home is I get to bring home the work laptop. The only problem with the work laptop is it's about two years old and my predecessor had been using it heavily. With no maintenance routine or temp file clearout. Let's here it for an 18Gb hard drive with 3.5Gb of temp files and 0.98Gb free space, shall we? Oh, and shall we look at the defragment report and see it's more red than blue Way more red than blue.

Still, it's chuckling along nicely with some maintenence routines, and I've got time now to see what else is loaded on it. Given it's a marketing and print design firm within the IT sector...

Hmm, shall we hear it for a fully registered and legit copy of Adobe CS2. I think we shall.

Now, can anyone point me towards some basic level tutorials for text based gif animations in either ImageReady or PhotoShop? Because, y'know, I could google, but there are far too many decent icon makers out there reading this already, so I thought I'd ask...

On the subject of cool icons, I yoinked this one from [livejournal.com profile] mapp earlier, innit cool?

Heh. I'm thinking of going for CS3 sometime soon, well sometime before I have to pay more for it due to no longer being a student.

Design firm? I thought you were working at a sales and marketing company but I may have got that wrong. When you said how good the new job was, I thought it was due to the honeymoon period of being landed with it (and the alcohol talking), but with a free laptop and the entire Adobe Creative Suite for free it's suddenly more believable.

This is the closest I've got to an envy-themed icon.
