26/02/07 - Quick update (And regarding advertising)
As much as I enjoyed working on Landscape Studio and building a community around it, unfortunately it didn't pay the bills (and while my new job does, it doesn't leave me time to work on Landscape Studio). So while I may not have any software updates, I have altered the web site a little (including the addition of Google AdWords to attempt to at least break even). However, I do promise that if I have a fair amount of free time in the future I'll put some effort into Landscape Studio. I'd also very much like to hear from you all - how you've been using Landscape Studio, what you've used it for/in conjunction with, your thoughts and suggestions, etc.
Wishing you all the best!

15/09/06 - Quick update
It's been a while since the last update, and unfortunately it may be a little while longer - I've just started a Masters course, a new job (American Express) and a programming contract (A mobile game, released soon), so I'm sure you can all understand why a freeware project has to take the backburner for a while. Rest assured that I haven't forgotten about Landscape Studio - there's big plans on the 'todo list'.
