Digital BW, The Print

Steve,

I'm a terrible one to ask about curves. I never have any luck when 
using "curves" for adjustments. I have better luck using "levels".

I REALLY need to learn how to use "curves", as I know that will come 
in handy.


I don't know what "Picture Pro" is. I was at CompUSA today and 
happened to look for it while I was there, and didn't see it.

I'm sure others here will be able to help you with those two 
questions.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.


Scott
