The legs good then? Outstanding! Or at least out sitting. No more pens and needles. Pain-free is good, MacPloos. You're taking care of yourself and that's the best Artistic expression anyone can have.

Paint on, for England! for Brighton! and for your fine self! (. . . oh, and of course us, what loves ta watch your cavalcade o' paints.)

Not sure, but the White Cliffs of Dover isn't exactly a blank canvas for just any old muralist. Bet you could do a grand mural there, wot?

So bring me up to speed. Why can't you use your Wacom stylus again? You said your tech flew the coop. But what was he shouting over his shoulder at ya through his cloud of dust? It was working now it's not. Why not?

You sure that considering the painting you're working on you didn't mean you're both "knockered"?

You are sounding like you and your mouse are pals out on the town till all hours, with one tuxedo between you. You wear the top hat, and your mouse wears the tails.

Hi Capt'n Mac yeah spot on fell arse over tip last night blood from left leg so bunged on some TCP so we'll so what the nurse says
when she comes this morning OK CIAO SLAINTE

D Akey
11-10-2017, 03:49 AM
Tsk tsk. MacPloos, brawlin' wif yer mouse? And he done threw ya. Well we now know who put the "artist" in "martial artist".

I trust you're aware that the old saying that tells you how to set the clocks, "Spring forward. Fall back." does not suggest that you need to physically perform the acrobatics of it. It means you adjust the time on your clocks in a particular direction. . . I think. My druids in the yard went AWOL so I have no advisors on Time at the mo.

But do take care of yourself, my dear fellow. Hope the fall wasn't too bad. Skin is a lot more tender after a certain age. You can look at it cross-eyed and it bruises. Are you having that kind of trouble in general or was it only because of the fall?

See if you can get the nurse to fix your tablet pens. Won't hurt to ask.

Go man go!!!!!!!! And easy does it 'till ye gets yer sea legs again.

So you're experience a sort of personal Renaissance reviving the old Roman civilization. Go man go, Mikey diAngelo! Paint that ceiling.

Hope the walking is something you can build up with practice. Keeping the body moving is very important, lest it think you're not going to take it out of the garage anymore.

Say hello to your mouse for me. He's doing you a good service. You should give him a chunk of Gouda or palette knife out a swath of Camembert as a treat.

MacPloos, did you get your pens yet? Time to post a letter to Santa.

You seem to be handling the mouse just fine. But of course a stylus is always better, especially when you have gotten used to it. Hope you are having a good winter, keeping warm and that you're walking about your living space on a regular basis. You gotten any snow yet?

As to myself: I thought I had a detached cornea. was getting flashes out of the corner of my eye -- nose too close to the grind stone I suspect. Ophthalmologist says it's that my vitreous fluid leaked a bit is all. And as the flashing is subsiding I think I can get back to doing art. It's now the floaters that bother me though. Anyway, there's no pain. Just the distraction of it. Ah, the dimensions of life. Fetch hither my guitar!

Here's a hoot. My mom and step-father are on a cruise to Panama -- at 92 the both of them. His knees are very bad but other than that he's fine. Hope they're having a grand time of it.

WC Fields: "RANCHO CUCAMUNGA! Ah yeeessss. . . They've got your pen. . . that's quite a pickle."

Okay. I bought my grandson near Manhattan something from Amazon UK a few years back and I ordered it way in advance of his birthday thinking it would take weeks to get through customs and all. Well, it got to his door in like 14 hours. I looked on the tracking page the day after I bought it and it said it had already been delivered. I contacted Amazon UK and they said that it showed it had in fact already been delivered. It had to be a mistake. I then called my son and they had actually gotten it.

Will that speed happen with your pen from RANCHO CUCAMUNGA? Hell if I know. However, it might not get snagged in customs going your way. Or they could take it on a slow boat to China, all by itself, alone. And head that direction. But the usual time could be like around a week if they put it in the mail that day you order it.

Anyway, nice impression of Santa Claus in that last painting you posted. He's on shore leave in his civvies. Probably heading down to that part of town to get a head start on finding if some of the gals been nautical or nice.

I can't guess the time for you to get the pen, but lots of the shippers probably have taken on extra help for the holiday rush. So you may not have to wait too long. But I dunno. When you order, you might want to mention you're a ripe, jolly old elf and 'tis the season to be good to Santa Ploos. And sing a few rounds of Here Comes Santa Ploos.

Yeah, the fires have been bad, but fortunately for me it's calmed some around my immediate area. This is good because aging parents heard all the news from all the on-ship scuttlebutt, but when they returned the air quality had gotten back to pretty good. Thanks for asking. Still there are lots of folks who didn't make out so well especially up the coast. Those winds were pretty darn nasty gusting up to 55 mph. But the winds seem to have died down mostly and hoping it will stay calm. They said on the radio that the temps have risen unseasonably like 10-15 degrees because of there being so many fires. And some of the fires are still going elsewhere from my area.

So yeah. As in your pic of the fumador matador, it's a smoking killer.

Like John Lennon said, "Life is what happens when you're making other plans. . ."

and I think most artists can agree that at times Art is what happens when the world makes other plans for us. All your experiences are going into the mix in one way or the other.

It's good to know you have various people knocking on the door.

Sounds like you might as well chuck the clock into the hands of one of your visitors as a door prize for all the good it does you as a device to regulate your activities. I'm in the same boat.

Speaking of the TV show "The Crown" and King George, I was just watching it and in the first episode as he was being dressed, they had him say a limerick, which I should think he did to help him not stammer. I thus, for historical purposes, and so that your tongue remains supple, I shall recount for you for historical interest and for you to recite as a practice for your elocution.
Now if you would, please repeat:

There was a young lady named Sally,
who loved the occasional dally.
She sat on the lap,
of a well-endowed chap,
and said, "Gee Dick, you're right up my alley."

I love this monarch! I have even thought to recite it at the Christmas table, just to see if anyone's listening.

Now that I have your attention, get thee back to the painting. Your production numbers are flagging, mate.

Bear in mind, to quote ol' Manny Shakespeare, "The paint's the thing." And be sure to ask Santa for a replacement stylus.

One suggestion a-fore ye buy one:
Especially if you're looking at an off-brand cheap-o,
ask them in the General Chat Forum Section if that one

Well done MacPloos! So you finally got your tablet. That must be very satisfying.

But you have me confused. You own a Cintiq 21 but you don't have a stylus for it? And all you need is a stylus to make it work? Or is the Cintiq not working at all?

So you bought a tablet. That's a good thing so you can get back into the swing of the functions of the stylus once you get more accustomed to not touching the screen with it.

I think she looks very nice. It reminds me a little of the style of Edvard Munch. Cool! Go man GO!!!!

I dare say you gave the Cintiq a hefty workout as any professional who had a quota to meet. It served you well and if you can't fix it, I think you should put it out to pasture for stud services. . .that is if it's a male.

You may want to look under the screen to check. It all should be visible since it's no been fixed. Oh aye. Spaying and neutering was no an option, MacPloos.

Doesn't look a whole lot different from the one you did with the mouse. Did it handle differently with the stylus? Could part of the issue be the settings you have within ArtRage for the tools as you use them and not so much either the mouse or the stylus pen?

Could you not adjust more as you go? Perhaps that would make more of a difference in sharpness? Sorry it's so frustrating. Give it time to get warmed up to painting again. You may be a bit rusty is all.

As to the Canadians, I looked up the horrible assault. So you remember those things as part of your life, not just from internet articles.

The shaky hands is normal if you're hovering your hand over the Cintiq. As you rightly suggest, it'll settle in once you get to resting the hand a bit on the screen and raise it bit for the longer strokes. I can't do fine work without steadying my hand unless I'm doing big sweeping gestural stuff which is alright for the early stage blocking in. But my style is tighter with detail like yours.

I can't speak to all your troubles, but the last bit re: your password to log in to your iPad:

Unless your house is filled with unsavory types, there's probably not any danger in writing your password down where you can look at it quickly.

Have you considered writing it on a piece of painter's tape or masking tape you have stuck to your device so it's handy at a glance?

If you're worried, then don't. But it's a thought, depending on whether it works at your security level to do that.

Good luck with the other bit. I can't help cause I've never used it.

So sorry to hear all your troubles Mr. Ploos. I wish I could have stopped you from using Reimage - they are scoundrels! Years ago before a change of ownership, they were a great site to go to repair computer problems and I would use them a couple of times a year to keep my computer running smoothly. But the last time I used them after the changeover, my computer was completely ruined and I wasted money. They tried to talk me into spending more to correct the problems caused by them but I cut my losses and closed them down.

There are many reports about this company on the internet - here's one - http://www.pcsoftwaresbay.com/registry-cleaner-reports/36-reimage.html

You can remove them by using this app https://geekuninstaller.com/ it's safe and free - I have used it for years.

I found a couple of videos showing how to reset your Ipad without password - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDOY6bwhqU8

NOW, Keep an eye on your notifications for private messages in the upper right of your screen when you're logged in to the Forums (like now). You may have to scroll to the top of the page to see it. But it will be lit up next to your forum name and say you have a new message once she's replied. You can take it up with her from there.

Good luck shipmate! Keep us posted. And stick a piece of tape to the side of your screen and write your password on it with some permanent pen.

02-23-2018, 10:46 AM
if anybody can contact Hannah ask her for a new password

for me for my IPad ok thanks a Bundle:D

If this is just the password to log into your iPad (not the ArtRage site, or using the ArtRage app), then you should contact Apple support, unfortunately my magic support powers only extend so far.

I can give you some suggestions to get started though.

First, which password is it? There is pinpad code you enter to unlock the screen for security. There is also the password for your Apple ID account, which you use to buy apps, and change some personal settings.


AppleID

If it is the password for installing apps and reinstalling your iPad data, go to https://iforgot.apple.com/password/verify/appleid and enter your AppleID email.

You will then be able to choose a new password, just like you do for the member area.


Passcode for log in screen

Is the password you can't remember the number pad one to access to your iPad? If this the the one you need, it will be harder to fix. You may need to contact Apple support so they can walk you through the steps.

The first thing to try is just to start iTunes on the computer and connect your iPad to it. You can then let it sync and restore everything.
If that does not work you may need to reset the entire iPad.

Go to this page for step by step instructions https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204306

I can only tell you to do what is on that page, so if it does not work, use the 'contact Apple support' option at the end.

No need for all that traditional mail jazz. You have a private message here on this here website, by jingo.

Once you're on as you are, where you can post in your thread, you also have access to your private messages. Are you aware of that feature? Who knows how many people have tried to contact your venerable self that way.

I *think* this will take you to your private message spot. When you get there, look around and you should see your messages to you there. I think she may have sent your password there as well. It's your own personal message that the public cannot see. Just you and the administrators like Hannah Rage.

Well, I blame the Jasmine tea. It's got yer head spun roond, and seein' mirages. Pass yon pot. I could do wif an cup meself.
Passionate. . . that's the stoof, oh aye.

Seeking out the ladies for a bit of practice, dear Eighty+?
Well, I blame it on the Jasmine tea. It's got your head spun around and you are seeing mirages. Pass the pot. I would like a cup of that myself, if it's conjuring that kind of scene.
Passionate. That's the proper attitude, yes sir.

Coming along nicely with the family photo, matey.

As to your shootout with the outlaw Josey Wales, I think it was his Welsh accent what caused the misunderstanding.

You said "Hoot mon" and he thought you said "Shoot man" or as we say in the Wild West and in dime store novelettes, "Alright you mangy low down snake in the grass, DRAW!"

Glad to see you dodged the bullet. Wish I could say the same for ol' Welsh Josey.

This gunplay reminds me of a tombstone up on Boot Hill what read:

Here lies Lester Moore
Four slugs from a .44
No Les
No More

NO WAY! The Cintiq be hardware, MacPloos, an' there's the truth of it, oh aye. The software driver may be screwed up in which case that just needs sorting, which shouldn't be impossible.

Lady Cintiq just appears to have passed on to Boot Hill because her eyes are rolled up in her head in exasperation with all this flip-flopery. . . and besides she thought it was about new foot apparel, confused as she was, so she dashed off to get some new boots. You can see the problem.

Take special note: the 21" Cintiq should not be used as a 21" TV tray for yer breakfast cornflakery. The milk you spill would no do for your electronic muse, lad. Not a'tall a'tall.

Remember this and put it on your bathroom mirror as a morning mantra:

"Thy Cintiq, She Be Notefully Lactose Intolerant, Shipmate."

Also make that one a sampler and hang it over your fireplace. It can ne'er be said too much. Software. That's likely the one and only problem.
