The last few times I've turned the PC on, I've learned how to use curves and levels to make a nicer looking image, and how to clone out dust. Then I learned how to correctly resize images and DPI for printing. Is there more to photoshop? Oh yeah. Do I need to learn it? Nope. I can do everything I need to, and it was actually pretty easy to learn. >> You really should do yourself a favour and learn to do more with photoshop. It is an incredible tool. In fact, I would say it is one of my most valuable pieces of photographic equipment I have.I spend a lot of time just playing with it and learning various techniques etc. If you are lucky enough to have a version you may as well get the most out of it... Vic < I have PS 6 on 3 machines and Elements on 1.I mostly use PS 6 to do minor adjustments with pic's from the D1.Levels,curves some cloning etc.I know there is a ton more to learn, just gotta do it:) I have 2 teenagers who work for me on my on site jobs and i usually watch what they do.They know more than me.I just tell them what i want to see in the photo's(they are both amatuer photographers too so that helps)they do it and print.Works well. I have a book but its basic,shows results but not always how they got it done,but it helps. I like 2 things Elements has,the colour tool and the fill flash. Have not done layers persay but my front cover for this years yearbook may be an overlay,so i'll have to play there. Basically like driving a porshe in downtown Toronto,lots of power just can't use it wisely:)(but one day) Dave ---- End Original Message ---- Pentax User Stouffville Ontario Canada http://home.ca.inter.net/brooksdj/ http://brooks1952.tripod.com/myhorses Sign up today for your Free E-mail at: http://www.canoe.ca/CanoeMail
