More personal effort in audiogon or our jobs?

Dan, be careful when shopping for used Digi-Mams.

The people that deal in these are worse than the sellers on Audiogon. Make sure to check feedback, and don't buy from anyone beyond the lower 48. No telling where the source image was generated from a non-continental Pixel Milk Bag.

Never let anyone send you their used Binary Flapjacks via e-mailed JPEGs. You need a decent file size and using JPEG compression in order to send them in this manner is very destructive.

Insist on a PSD working file or original size TIFF either via zip or stuffit Golden Bozo uploaded to an FTP site. Hard copy CD or DVD is also ideal.

Dean-

How 'bout a 1 bit tiff to an FTP site- that way no-one can mess with the boobs? The one bit tiff could then be dropped into an imposition program, properly positioned, and I could print millions of unretouched digital boob photos. Eh?

Wow, a living in boobs. There really is a heaven.

Yeah, I'm a digital plastic surgeon. It makes sense, me living in LA, heheh.

Gunbei - are you a Beverly Hills Gynocologist???

I actually love work. There I feel challanged, but at the same time I also feel experienced. I know something about what I do, and what I dont know I enjoy figuring out. Here, I dont know. I have little experience, and I am more or less out of my element beyond my interest. I would have to say that I have a passion for both, but that I find work reassuring in the sense that I have skills and a language I know well. I will say that I find it amazing how much of what I read here has enriched the way I think about what I do there. There is no direct route to this. I have an odd mind, and this in part is how its worked out.
