Hello,

This is my first post to this group. I'm looking forward to learning more about Corel Paint Shop Pro X2 Ultimate.

By trade, I was a major university administrator and teacher. Unfortunately, I was forced into early retirement at age 50 due. in part, to an inherited movement disorder in my arms and hands called essential tremor. I am now 58 years of age, and to quote a famous Rock-n-Roller, Jerry Lee Lewis,
there's a whole lotta' shakin' goin' on!
:D


Since my hands and fingers shake considerably, everyday tasks are challenging, especially anything requiring fine motor skills. However, I've learned to be very patient over the past 46 years; the tremor started when I was 13 years of age. And to think I wanted to be a surgeon... REALLY I DID! My dad was a surgeon and he wanted me to practice with him. About 40 years ago, I worked my way through college as a hospital orderly. My job required me to prep patients for surgery, including shaving their body hair at and around the incision site. To see the faces of those patients... :shock: well, PRICELESS! Needless to say, I chose another field since most people would probably choose not to have me
CUT ON THEM!
:lol:


Well, I really should get back to my introduction. I recently purchased the new Paint Shop Pro X2 Ultimate software. I've been using various versions of Paint Shop Pro since version 7. As I'm able, I scan and retouch old photos of my family and friends, and develop family history DVD slide presentations. It's a very slow process, but I can do it. I am also an amateur genealogist and I teach others how to trace their family history.

Thanks for the opportunity to share and learn more about this software!
