My only point.

To "some" degree, of course.

I don't simply throw them away, but I have enough images to deal with
already...and have no need to do that.

But Herb, I NEVER said I have ANY bias against Photoshop!!!  NEVER.  What I
said is I, and only I, don't find the need to do any manipulations in PS,
and others have said that it is an absolute must to do, or my images are
inferior...and I disagree.  That doesn't make me biased against PS...

Regards,

Austin
