Another reason I love my Kensington trackball, the Kensington software lets me really fine tune the responsiveness. If I move it fast, all I need to do is move the ball through about 90 degrees to whip the cursor all the way across the screen. > Now I need some higher resolution pics for my desktop. > > Anyone gots some recommendations / favs? Well, two things: A lot of the pix at APOD <http://apod.nasa.gov> are really big. This one <http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/1012/m82_hst_big.jpg> is 4750x3700 :-) A lot of the pix at Botany photo of the day, <http://www.ubcbotanicalgarden.org/potd/> can be traced back to their flickr group and retrieved at higher sizes. And a really handy utility SmillaEnlarger <http://sourceforge.net/projects/imageenlarger/> is a very useful tool for embiggening those smaller desktop pics up to your giant new screen size :-) It turned the images of the Golden Rays here <http://tinyurl.com/6xhlc4> (964x645) into something quite nice on my 27" imac. A wee bit grainy, but not bad at all, certainly not exceedingly pixelated. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
