I don't want to get into a flame war over this, but El Gringo certainly read as saying that Jostein was imagining these things and/or was too useless to use the tools involved (software & tripod/camera etc) properly. If you have a look at what Jostein has on his website and read some of what he has written here you will easily see that the suggested 'uselessness' is a load of tosh. And to say that to someone without taking the time to make even a basic evaluation of the person is poor.
The points might be valid in a general sense - but directing them a Jostein with no justification is not. I am still hoping that it is just the way that emails distort the meaning behind what someone is trying to say. > -----Original Message----- > From: Antonio Aparicio [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 09 July 2004 10:57 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: *istD anti-aliasing? > > > Hey Rob, El Gringo wasn't attacking anyone, he was just making some > valid points about sharpness and the *istD and peoples perception of > it.
