How interesting that you should start this thread, I was only laughing with my husband a few days ago at the old images I created using Apo 1.0, they were indeed very basic but I loved them at the time. My "style" has changed a lot and I agree wholeheartedly with the idea of letting images "ripen" before posting them. I bit like sending a letter to a boyfriend you have fallen out with - write it, read it, save it and then decide whether to send it or not but don't send it in the heat of the moment!! Another analogy is that of clothes and haircuts, let's face it what we thought looked great several years ago looks pretty ghastly (or hilarious) now. Back to Apo, I agree styles change and the program has changed in such a way that it is possible to create images that would have been almost impossible even 12 months ago. When I go home this evening I am going ot have another look into the archive- I have a feel many may end up as trash and a few kept for thew sake of nostalgia like pictures you painted when you were kid at school!!
