Corel Photo Shop X2

Yes definately me "watching ?" a cricket match at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai (formerly Bombay). With a bottle of Kingfisher at one side. Some friends from the Barmy Army took it for a joke.

I'm not a boozer really, but in the heat (around 40) it was tiring.

I too am not much of an expert when usining PS2, but I try and learn, I find the jpeg optimizer the most useful facility for reducing the pixel strenth of my pics for my websites.

Really the jpeg optimiser is only useful if you nhave photos to be put on the internet, it retains the same size, however it reduces the pixels which means that the pics dosent take forever to load on your screen.

What you really need to reduce your large pics for printing or putting on wallpaper is to use the "resize" option, maybe even reduce by 50%.

Where in the USA are you, I am coming to Maryland this October to a wedding. Never been to states, right now I am on a job in India, and its very hot.

I'll give this a whirl.

Thanks Victor and Lyn.
