Digital BW, The Print

Peter, Roy

Thanks, that makes things easy. Thanks for your input.
Actually here's another side question for Roy. Is it
difficult to put a graphic interface on something like
QTR? This is a naive question, I honestly have no clue
about these things. Last night I just thought that
would be nice for people like me, a graphic designer
by trade, that function better when pretty pictures
are involved. In reality QTR is pretty easy to figure
out as is, I was just mildly curious. Again thanks for
all your work on this Roy.
