Whereas she's a "computer image manipulator playing in PS and or, other means of electronic dabbling constituting an inage on the screen." However, due to the demands of advertising agencies and other weird outfits in the cold cruel world, she probably makes more money a year than any half dozen combined salaries of 6 LUG members. And this kind of weird has been flying like crazy for several years. Although the latest report from Masterfile is.... it's begining to wane slightly and agencies are slowly going back to "realism for flogging products and places." ted - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
