I have a number of friends that are die hard film people because of black and white. At present the best you can do with printing digital black and white is less than perfect. Printers are improving and in not to distant future this gap will change. While it is possible to get mediocre black and while images quickly in Elements you have to jump through hoops to get great black and white. Full blow Photoshop has Channel Mixer for this. What would it take to add Channel mixer to elements? You could set the monochrome box variable to "on" and eliminate it this way Elements would have a good tool for black and white and Photoshop would still retain a marketing advantage.

Grant,

Hidden Power could be a book by Anthony Robbins. You would be laughing all the time then. :D :D

I found out about it on adobe's forum. I was looking to see if anyone knew more about enhancements here. Just happened there is more than one thing here it does.

I've never gotten the shipley things to work. You mention Kevin Trax elsewhere...who ios that?
