How have you been running them? : Variations and OvPro that is.

Are you, as instructed, using them intensively, one after the other, 
in the following fashion? :

Drag a directory of (large) Jpegs to Variations.
REPEAT
a) Double-click on a thumbnail image to display it as large as 
possible but in a window.
b) Write some text (gibberish is good enough) in OvPro
UNTIL (a line of pixels appears). [usually within 10 mins, maybe just 
3 mins]

You can of course, continue, until either more lines of pixels appear, 
or one or other app (Variations or OvPro) crashes with an error. The 
error can be different each time, as I recall.

Or are they (Variations and OvPro) just sitting on the icon bar doing 
nothing much?
