Thanks guys!

Thanks guys! I guess one of the things I like best about my setup is that I actually have my GPS run off of the main battery in the hatch rather than using AA batteries and worrying about them dying. I rigged a power outlet inside the hatch and use a basic car adaptor for the GPS and it works great.

Here's a dual SINK. Flush mounted anchor trolly on both sides, 4 flush mount Scotties, PVC light extension. I sent my flush mounted anchor trolly to TKF Stubbs for posting on the rigging page, but haven't heard back. I will PM it to anyone that wants it. I really think it is a valid refinement.

Image advice

Post by No-tye-much »

Techie,
any time a .jpg is saved, the compression algorithim is run, causing a loss of data. The best advice is to create a copy in .tif format (direct from your camera if posible), and do all editing in the .tif file, which has no compression. When you are done editing (sizing, cropping, enhancing, color corections, red eye removal, bit depth, etc...), then save it as a final .jpg. The final DPI should match the best viewing method you intend to use. Monitor only- 96 dpi, printer- can get outragious, but 1/3 of the print res is as high as necessary (1/3 x 3 colors).

There is lots of advice on the web, here is one site: http://www.shortcourses.com/
