Why I joined the Garden of Creators: I had purchased a new computer in October, 2002 that came pre-loaded with the Anniversary edition of Paint Shop Pro 7.04 (PSP), and although I was excited about having this graphics program, I had no idea how to properly use it ... I was already a member of "Women of Strength and Inner Beauty" (WOSIB) since March 2002, so I decided to give the Garden of Creators a try, as I knew that other ladies were learning PSP through the online lessons offered by this Garden.

I started in the "Beginners" class in December 2002, working my way up to the "Intermediate" class in October 2003, and finally in January 2005, I moved into the "Advanced" class, as I felt I had mastered much of Paint Shop Pro through my WOSIB classes (I am now working with versions 8 & 9 of Paint Shop Pro) ... I could never have learned PSP without the Garden of Creators, and I shall forever be grateful for the online classes offered by my "creative" sisters !!

The best thing about the Garden of Creators: I love that you are never "pushed", but that you are allowed to learn and move at your own pace, and when you're ready to move to another level, you are fully supported by Kince & her Creator assistants ... You also can work any assignment you choose, as long as you complete the one for your level each week -- Learning at your own pace, with supportive Creators behind you, allows you "create" to your heart's content !! ... I dearly love being a member of WOSIB and the Garden of Creators, and I give them both full credit for helping me master Paint Shop Pro !!
