I've been kind of out of circulation, in a bit of funk, really, mainly due to this business with the US Customs. But, I have reached the point...
I have had some good results copying and pasting images and text (as unformatted text) into Word, and then adjust the text for size. I don't use...
Do you use Photoshop for your images? I find that it has lots of options for resolution and lighting/shadow effects. I'm still on a learning...
I am, of course, speaking in a wider context. The dilemma faced by any forum and social media company, is how to regulate content. People will...
I think the visual problem with the Harlan Berk buy/bid auction pages is due to a combination of only average quality resolution with my screen,...
That's a very nice drachm. I was thinking of snatching it up, until I saw the "sold" notation, which, for some reason is very washed out on my...
