Eric there are degrees of professionalism ken

IMHO if you take money for your services you are a professional ken

Barry i found that you have more leeway if you use 1920*1080 -- you never know, you might want to zoom certain picts ken

DAVE lets go back to the 4 series of pte - we would use multiple duplicate sides for spacing in order to put titles in -tick box not to show pict and - i never use photoshop so i would make the titles up withe the forerunner of present o/a very quick and dirty and this why so many of us old bucks still want the ease of the pre 5 series - it was based on the KISS principle ken

Correct me if i am wrong, due to pte's abilties, the file size does not increase if you use the the same pict several times - it has been that way since day one ken

Barry - You've demonstrated a good point. It was Jeff Lunt that first suggested to me that it's wise to size your images for the world of wide screens and HDTV (1920 x 1080). I sort of dismissed it that was, until I bought my 23" (1920 x 1080) monitor. Since then I have been going back through my slideshows and converting to the HD format. Believe me, you better have a lot of time on your hands to embark on this conversion journey. However. it is well worth it once done. Someone in an earlier post today raised a question in my mind regarding "image quality". Ovbviously, as you increase the image quality when saving the picture in Photoshop, the size of the file increases. On my images cropped to 1920 x 1080, I save at a level 5 (Medium)yielding an image size of 172K (this will depend on the image of course). When saved at the maximun image quality of 12, it produces an image size of 491K. So, the question is: the bigger the image file size is, the more it will tax one's computer. Quality 5 works for me, but are there any recommendations on image quality settings? I don't want to learn after I buy my big HDTV that I should have been saving my pictures with the image quality set to the max. Regards, Dave

that would be great -- make sure you post them and a link to a show if you make one -- the fire is down to embers now ken

THERE IS QUITE A following of steam engine owners in our area - i dont go anymore to the annual event, been +- 40 years since i was at one -- see http://www.steamthresher.com/ http://www.olivertractors.ca/goodison_connection_information.htm ken

WELCOME TO THE1920/1080 uisers gang, which a few of us have been advocating [ including Igor] for quite some time -- you will soon see that biggers is better - when saving your resize files save at 80% to 100% quality - you wont regret it -- if need be buy a bigger hd Barry your show ran perfect on my 4:3 1024/768 19" lcd monitor with the expected bands top amd bottom, when fed to my 37" lcd tv via the svhs output of my ATI card, border all around which is a normal condition using svhs -- no pixelation when viewed at 1 foot ken

THE FIRESTONE TIRE LOOKS ROUND TO ME KEN

some of you HAVE suspected that my mind is fried, well at times i tend to agree especially today "it may work on ie 7 but no time to start other system" forgot that i had installed ie 8 on my old xp sp3 system, STARTED IT UP but with ie 8 finally loaded FAST REPLY IS HERE KEN

just a thought -- with so much static about playing music without a permit, I dont think you can scan money and not likely stamps so if you think the music police are a problem imagine the money police knocking on your door ken

trying Peter's suggestion http://www.picturestoexe.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=10551&view=findpost&p=68360 from ie 6 post/use full editor no fast reply bar in sight it is kilkenny time boys this one for our noble leader IGOR to sort out we have enough problems with the program - we dont need forum problems ken

Lin yes it is missing on my ie 6 is there on my firefox 3.5.2 i sent answer also from firefox it may work on ie 7 but no time to start other system until the chatter on newsgroups quiets down re ie 8 acting up i wont install it my feelings is i think ie8 works fine on vista systems but not on older setups will try on safari 4.0.3 [531.9.1 also no fast reply bar real nice to have the same deck of cards for the players MY MISTAKE FAST REPLY IS AVAILABLE ON MY SAFARI ken

this from firefox below fast reply bar is a box with faint letters click inside the box to enter text am too polite to say what i am thinking :angry::angry: ken

I would appreciate a screen shot showing where fast reply is - i have yet to find it with or without my glasses from the help Fast Reply Where it has been enabled, there will be a fast reply button on each topic. Clicking this will open up a posting box on the topic view screen, cutting down on the time required to load the main posting screen. Click the fast reply button to expand the reply box and type the post inside of there. Although the fast reply box is not expanded by default, you can choose the option to have it expanded by default, from the board settings section of your control panel. Pressing the 'More Options' button will take you to the normal posting screen. I cannot locate Pressing the 'More Options' ken

Brian glad you noticed as well -- i think that the new layout has a lot of adobe flash/java embedded in it and i have updated the adobe component but it is still slow reactiing and takes forever if on copies / pastes a sentence to something else -- this with my ie 6 -- tried it with my firefox latest version 3.5.2 and no hesitation so must be my ie6 browser ken
