Hi Cheryl, Al those things will work on Jpegs. However, if you want to change the format quickly, easily and for free, 'FastStone' has a tool that will batch convert Jegs to most things and will also resize and insert a watermark if you want it to. All with one click. The tool's a little bit hidden but well worth looking for. If you get stuck give me a shout on here. I don't suppose you can PM...

Photoshop frustration
Paul, I have just installed and successfully run the sample "hello world" action as detailed in the hidden elements tutorial in Elements 4. I would assume that if this still works then other actions should still run. cheers Al.

I thought it was pretty much covered in the thread title Zatoichi - 'I will make a video tutorial about anything in photoshop.' :D My mistake, many apologies. I retract my request for help in the hope that the member concerned will return.

Does anyone else *not* use photoshop?
I started playing with PS about 3 years ago and although I've hardly accumulated any true insight into the programme I really enjoyed what I COULD do with it. From there I decided that to further my kowledge I would need images I'd made myself-SO I bought a Fuji s602z, not because I wanted to take photos -because I wanted to explore PS.Have kind of got hooked and got me an Olympus e300 and I s...

Acdsee vs Photoshop
U can get photoshop cs2 thru ebay full version for about a $1000 I think - u could even probably buy cheaper thru an american seller - I bought adobe creative suite cs2 (photoshop, illustrator, golive, acrobat, indesign) for $1500AU thru an american ebay seller - promptly posted and recieved within 2 weeks.

Photoshop help.
The key to getting to grips with photo editing using Photoshop Elements or Photoshop is to keep things as simple as possible. If you get things right at the picture-taking stage, most images will require alterations to contrast and a bit of sharpening and not much else. An awful lot of courses try to get into the more nitty gritty tweaking of images. You need to walk before you can run. S...

Faststone Photo Imager
I LIKE FastStone Image Viewer -- it will open Pentax DNG RAW files that my PhotoShop 7 will not and it is very quick to downsize for e-mailing and forums.

Is everyone PSP Mad ?
Photoshop has been around for many years, mainly in the printing industry design and graphics areas. A very powerful tool and is not just used for manipulating digital or photographic images, it takes a while to become fully conversant with it, but it is worth it in the end. Another programme is Corel Photo Paint this is included in the Corel Draw set up, again it is very similar to Photoshop a...

I use the Kodak Digital GEM Airbrush plug-in for skin softening. It can soften skin without affecting detail in hair and other facial features. You can fully control the softness and what detail you wish to retain. The only drawback is that its a tad expensive - around £50.00. Details and trial available at: www.asf.com
