    batch reduce resolution

    Apply the changes to one image whilst recording an Action. Go to File/Automate/Batch Processing and you will find your Action in the drop down list. You can now apply it to an entire folder of files. Sark PS...Look in the Help files if you need more info on recording Actions

    Scratch disk speeds

    Welles, Hi. I guess that's why they recommend it. I had just assumed it was for faster performance. Clearly not the case. Sark

    Low Light and Digitial Photography

    Even with traditional film, low light means faster film and grainier images. Slower film means slower shutter speeds and blur (without a tripod). The same principles apply to digital. You just get noise instead of grain. Personally, I would go for a sharp, albeit grainier/noisier image over a...

    Scratch disk speeds

    One point I forgot to mention. I had a look in the Photoshop manual last night. Not a single listing in the Index relating to Scratch disks. I could find nothing about it in the whole manual. Considering what you pay for the boxed version, you would think they would make some effort with the...

    Scratch disk speeds

    My drives a slower 5400rpm unit, so a new drive is in order I guess. Thanks for repling sPECtre. Sark

    Scratch disk speeds

    Hi all. According to the blurb, PS prefers its scratch disk to be on a separate partition, better still, a separate drive. I have mine on a separate partition and have just carried out some tests prior to buying a second HD to use as a scratch disk. The tests were just to see how much faster...

    Scratch disk info

    Hi all. It's about time I replaced my 5400RPM Drive for a 7200RPM unit. At the moment I have a partition used as Photoshop's Scratch disk. Just wondering if it would be wiser to keep the 5200RPm unit as a seperate scratch disk, or have a faster partition on the 7200RPM unit. Thanks Sark

    Undo method ??????????

    Spectre?Didn?t know that preference existed, will take a look tonight. Thanks. Patrick?Three shortcut keys. I?m ancient, my fingers are not that dexterous. Two keys at once is more than enough for me? 8D [confused] 8D Sark

    Undo method ??????????

    Hi all. Just wondered about Photoshop?s Undo method, under the Edit menu. The Undo turns into Redo, and you have to use the Step Backward command if more than one undo is required. Even Ctrl Z is both an Undo and Redo if pressed consecutively. Image Ready doesn't work like this, nor do most...

    My new website

    Some wonderful artwork Maya, and from someone who is not on broadband, it was nice to view a site like this without stareing at the screen for 5 minutes waiting for the images to appear. The simplicity of the site is a real asset....Well done. Sark

    curiousity...

    Welles I think Institutionhead is refering to other members profiles. If you click on a member name you get Many apologies, but you can't view just any profile. Don't know if anyone used it much, but in the past it was possible to view basic info about members (or maybe that was another...

    The Best forum I have ever seen!!

    Re: The Best forum I have never see!! Superfrasky. You need to lighten up and get a sense of humour. That pompsoap post was over a month ago and you still feel slighted. None of the replies had any offence inplied, or intended. English is clearly not your first language, just as you err when...

    How do I?

    Just a few points, that may be useful under certain circumstances. If your original text is black on a white background, you need only change the top text layers blend mode to Darken for the text below to show through clearly. You can then add the background layer on top of the stack and...

    PS Upgrade info please

    Welles No problem. I think much of the confusion is due to Adobe not want to publicly discourage registration, as such, they have never been as clear as they might have been on this subject. Spectre That's good to read. I guess it works just like Win XP. Not sure if I need to upgrade just yet...

    PS Upgrade info please

    Welles, Hi again. Having now read my PS7 License agreement I would make the following observations. Firstly, whilst the request to (quote)??.Please complete and return any accompanying registration form to receive registration benefits??.is included at the start of the EULA document, it is...

    PS Upgrade info please

    Welles Out of interest, where in the EULA does it mention the need to be a registered user to upgrade. I'm not at my PC right now so can't check, will certainly take a look tonight, as I'm sure it will be the same for PC as well as MAC. Also, is this a recent ammendment, I'm using PS7? I know...

    Is PS the tool of choice for enhancing Website Photo Images?

    Patrick said Not true...Digital is capable of equalling, and even bettering 35mm film quality. It can't compete with larger medium format, or large format, but you wouldn't need either for images that will end up on the web. Skill and knowledge is a big factor, but equipment does of...

    PS Upgrade info please

    Hi all. I bought a copy of PS 5.5 (Mac) for a neighbour recently. I found this at a Boot fair for very little money, but although it?s a genuine package it had been registered. They are now considering upgrading to a more recent version. I know there is no obligation to register, but was...

    My never-ending quest - cross-processing techniques

    Not really much to tell Sheba. Basically cross processing just involves developing negative (print) film in chemicals designed for positive (slide) film and vise versa. That simple. Never used this effect myself, so could not advise on particular results or methods from particular films, but...
