You Never Know



When I first decided to learn to use Paint Shop Pro, I envisioned working with photos. That quickly expanded to creating graphic images. Now I've found another use for graphic skills.

I have long been a lover of Superpoke Pets. That wonderful blend of social network and graphic creation. For those who have never played, the creative elements includes different settings (habitats), which is inhabited by your selected pet. SPP provided items which you could purchase for your pet's habitat. Although it eventually included purchases for actual money, it originally included thousands of items that could be purchased with virtual currency. Some folks added a few items of furniture to their habitat. Others got more elaborate. Some greated some incredible mosaics and works of art using items in incredibly creative ways.

Now, three years later, Google has announced that it will shut down SPP in about three monts. Our family wasn't ready to give up the creative element, so we've been using PSP to help us save habitats and items, so that we can continue to create using PSP.

The image above was created in Superpoke Pets. Click on the video below, to watch it come to life. Check it out, if you'd like to see why so many people are hooked on this game.
