And…we’re back!

To our delighted astonishment, all the functions we’d given up on trying to make work on our damaged Mac suddenly started, with no further prompting from us, to work… the installers for Adobe Bridge and Discord, that we’d been futilely double clicking (and trying all the recommended workarounds to get to open) two days ago, suddenly opened…

… not only that, which gave us beautiful Bridge and full access to Midjourney, again, but Bluetooth suddenly started working properly, again, and, most wonderfully, our iMac could suddenly see external disks, again…

… we have zero idea why these things suddenly fixed themselves, and we don’t actually have much faith they will stay fixed, given the things that have happened with our beloved iMac, but we are delighted to be able to use Midjourney, again, and delighted to just be able to do our thing, again…

… we spent time, yesterday, going through all our recent work which we were lucky was still on TimeMachine, (we have another, even older iMac on which we do all our Photoshop work, since Adobe and Apple got together and tilted the playing field, making it impossible, on new computers since about 2020, to use any of the Adobe products anyone had legitimately payed big money for, you now have to pay Adobe vastly more money to use those products without ever owning a physical disk… our 15 year old iMac is running El Capitan, and has been disconnected from the net for the last 5 years) and realised how far behind we’d gotten in our posts, so we’d actually started getting a post ready…

… and here it is! Beautiful punkettes in a delightfully rough style we really like… it suits the subject matter perfectly…

… we particularly like this last one, we’d love to develop this style further… but, before we do that, we still have a heap of other stuff, all different styles, to post.

We are really happy to be doing our thing, again, and, with a shiny, totally up-to-the minute new iMac already payed for and soon-to-be-shipped to us, we are hoping this one will keep working for the two weeks that is supposed to take, but won’t be surprised if it doesn’t, but we’ll also be philosophical about it (:
