    Thanks again!
    I will look after these programs and tutorials to see which one is the most 'user-friendly'.

    (edit: your Piso Frugi denarius is gorgeous!)

    A little offtopic. A very nice look (on my taste) of such photos from TIF and AncientJoe personal web-sites. I can imagine that this look can be done via some software. Could you please let me know, how you doing this pictures? I'll trying to do the same with my photos. ae43f8_d6bcd43a7ea240d0bea94dfa7f215c91~mv2.jpg

    If you already have at least some familiarity with using Photoshop-like editors and need additional help, send me a PM :)

    Yah Mentor, I love you and your awesome coin-ness => you rock #1

    Ummm, but those
    black backgrounds still throw me back-in-time to the 60-70-80's and those sweet black light photos ... again, it must merely be something in my head? (great posters, but not that great for my sweet coins)
