I'd never buy that sucky book, merely from looking at the poorly designed cover! The author must have approved that messy layout, and that same person is trying to convince me he knows how to make an effective web page? Hah! He can't even design a decent, catchy book cover! Good luck getting me to even open the book! keith whaley -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
