Show Off Your Creative Workspace
I have both a home office and a mobile office. I spend much of my day in one or the other. I like surrounding myself with "stuff" -- pictures, books, objects that provide me with visual and mental stimulation. I'm also working on bringing more order to my workspace.

How about your office, studio, cubicle, or corner of the room? I've posted a peek at my work-in-progress home office and Jim Q. has submitted info on his office in his apartment (so neat and orderly!). What kind of work area do you have? Show Us!


HTML to RTF Challenge
If you have some time and the inclination, skelley24 has a little problem that needs solving -- trying to get an RTF file to look the same as a corresponding HTM file.

Do You Remember PageStream?
I've heard of it but honestly hadn't thought of this program in ages. Thought it was long gone. Well this thread about PageStream was posted in the forum way back in 2004. But dguzman revived it just this week with a post about his experiences with PageStream in the 80s/90s. Got me curious so I went looking. PageStream for Windows, Mac, Linux, Amiga, and MorphOS is still alive and kicking. The most recent beta (Windows) and RC versions (Mac) are from 2009. Looking for a low-cost ($99) alternative software? It might be worth checking out.
