I now anoint thee Sir Professional. It's not whether you think you do professional work that counts but whether others do. Kent Gittings
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of aimcompute Sent: Friday, December 21, 2001 8:30 PM To: Pentax Discuss Subject: Cover Shot I got an e-mail yesterday from Idaho Magazine. They have decided to use one of my shots for the January cover. The one they chose is: http://www.peaceoflight.com/WinterSports/GirlBlueSled.htm There were several that I thought were good candidates. This was one of them. I hand delivered it today. However I was a dufus. When I was asked to deliver the shot at 125% the web-image size and at 300dpi, I was thinking web, not print, and sized the image like I was doing it for the PUG. So like a dork I resized my original Photoshop scan to 750 pixels high and 300dpi. So when the art director opened it he said "Uh, I think this is going to be a little small". I rescanned and sent him the right size. I had asked him whether he preferred to do sharpening and contrast adjustments with the raw scans or whether I should do it. He said "When amateurs bring me photos I have to scan, I'll have to do that. But with professionals like yourself I would just as soon you do it since it will save me time." The reference to me as a professional made me giggle inside. Tom C. - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
