:^) I usually scan a print at home and make an ~1.2meg
JPEG (it won't read TIFF!) all spiffed up in P-Shop.
I put this on a floppy and use the dye-sub for better
enlargments than the Konica "Digital Blunder" minilab
can make. My main beef is that there is no "print to
page" option, so you have to waste kilobytes on the
floppy by putting your full frame image into a blank
canvas in *exactly* 8x10 proportion. The image editing
software is quite crude, but being able to *only* have
8x10 crops for enlargment unless you waste image data
sucks. Of course, I doubt that many folks use it from
a floppy scanned and doctored up at home.
... and does it *ever* take some time to read in that
meg-plus file! Worse is that has to do it several times.
when home dye-subs (I have seen some in catalogs) become
affordable I may consider color home printing from the Mac
