Dear list, I have finally recieved my upgrade to PS CS. It was on backorder for 8 weeks in Australia! Needless to say I am extremely pleased with the added functionality compared to PS 6.0. However I am having some probs. I am not sure if my problem is caused by CS or XP. Saving a file as a psd gives me a normal preview in the Photoshop file open box as well as the file browser section. When using the Thumb view in the Windows XP browser, AOK. But when I make a contact sheet using contact sheet 2 and save it as a psd file, the thumbs view in PS open box and in XP shows either a black box and the file name or a black page with very small coloured artifacts on the top 1/10 of the page. In properties I get a normal preview and also in the photoshop open box preview at the bottom, if the file is clicked on. This is not a major problem, but it is annoying. Its like having a new car and something is rattling somewhere, but only when you turn left on a sunny day! Modifying then resaving the file as a psd does not help. Saving it as a Tiff, then resaving it as a psd and the problem returns! Obviously the Contact sheet plug in does something to the file that sticks with it. Opening it in PS 6 and resaving as a psd fixes it! But if I make any changes to the file in CS, it won't let me save it- a message saying the file is in use and cannot be saved!!. I have uninstalled and reinstalled CS to no avail.

Thanks Frank Styevko from Australia Sorry in advance if I have done something stupid, but its a cold winter here in Melbourne, I'm in the middle of a bad Flu, and I have just finished 3 consecutive overnighters in front of this box!! Thats my excuse anyway! =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
