Martin, The great thing about the "cross-grade" is that it's a full working version of Photoshop 3.0 that doesn't mess with your Photostyler directory – you can still use your Photostyler fully and ween yourself away. I got my upgrade from PC-Connection today. Comes with a loaded CD-ROM (you can install from – no disk swapping!!) and also the Adobe Type-On-Call CD (w/ Adobe Type Manager). All and all a great deal for $185.00 if you already have Photostyler! -Glen

Glen, yeah, Photoshop 3.0's CD is very cool for installation and Alan Iglesias was telling me about the tutorials on the cdrom too. I wish more people would put their multi-diskette software on cd-rom instead (hint, hint <g>). To clarify, I'm using Pshop 3.0 at work, but need to decide whether to upgrade my personal copy of Pstyler 2 to Pshop 3. It's inevitable I think, but there were many nice features on Pstyler which I really liked. For example, being able to preview thumbnails and info of images before loading; load a portion of an image; image navigator etc. Now Adobe owns the source code for Pstyler, I'm hoping they'll incorporate some of those features into the next Pshop.

Martin, According to the documentation with Photoshop 3, there is a "Quick Edit" plug-in that would let you open just part of an uncompressed TIFF file to work on it. In Chapter 3 "Acquiring Quick Edit Files" FWIW. Chuck Jameson Silver Tongue Software

Charles, >> Photoshop 3, there is a "Quick Edit" plug-in << good tip. I'm just a beginner with Pshop 3 and I'm sure there's a lot of features and plug-ins yet to be discovered. the Mac-dudes at work have a nice little browser/thumbnail plug-in which lets them open just a thumbnail and get info on any file and then open the file into Pshop 3. This seems to nicely duplicate the built-in feature that Pstyler 2 has.
