Re: Photoshop -- Academic version?
Here's some info I shared back in August with my sister who had a teacher friend that was looking for Photoshop: PC or Mac? Just be sure to pay attention to the platform when buying. Don't buy CS. It shouldn't cost you any more to get CS2 than CS and there were some significant upgrades between the two. Count on CS3 being… -
Re: it's a jeep thing....do you understand?
I should totally have posted earlier! Went on a 4 day dry camping trip. Our meetup point would be the town of Bridgeport, CA. It's on the other side of hwy 108 for me. I made a pit stop near the top.

Re: Upcoming change that will affect stats
Baldy, I am one of the hundreds and not one of the millions and am also in the minority since I loved my undergrad and graduate statistic classes.

Re: Show us your business Card!
Below was mentioned business card stock. I have used it and think it stinks. Not thick enough, even micro-perf is ragged, and the regular perf is worse. You get 10 and all that paper is wasted.

Re: Lost meta data in LR3?
Exifutils ( www.hugsan.com/EXIFutils ) shows, and edits if you want to, all the exif in an image, including raw images. Not free but well worth.
