Photo gallery subforum.

[Zephri]

Is it possible to put in a subforum for photos, so some one who has a new pistol or rifle can post their pictures in, So it won't get mixed up in the general discussion, and keep things in one area

Here's an example of what I mean

Hey how did you do that.

So you want more then the sticky "show and tell" thread. I'm happy to consider it but I don't want to put too many forums up on such a new site.

Thanks for the suggestion!

 

[Zephri]

I did it in Photoshop. I can understand not putting up too many forums on a small but growing site as some of them would collect dust, but as the site grows this can be something we should consider.

 

[Fenway]

Ya I think its' a great idea. I need photoshop but I hear it is very expensive. Am I right?

 

[Zephri]

yes it is ripoffidly expensive. Those idiots at adobe way overpriced the program. windows dosen't even cost that much.

You might try gimp it's free and is very close to photoshop in operation.

Thanks for that link. Looks like it might work on my mac.

 

[Fenway]

I have a new mac as well. I'm going to look into this

Gimp is ok, but it's really no Photoshop. The price is right, however.

Saw a blurb that Adobe was going to offer a Free version of PhotoShop, PhotoShop Express on their web sight. Don't know when it will be available

Photoshop Express is an online feature that offers some limited abilities to edit photos, but it's primarily an online album. If cost is your limiter, you can get a copy of Photoshop Elements at Best Buy or Circuit City pretty reasonable. Although it doesn't have all the features that a full blown copy of Photoshop has, it is still very capable. Although I have CS2 on my Mac, I have a copy of Elements on the laptop I use as a digital darkroom and it fills the bill nicely

 

[Fenway]

How much is elements. And what do you recommend for me on my MAC. What is CS2?

 

[quicksdraw]

You can buy Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac directly from Adobe for $89.99. I recommend it if money is an issue. I don't know much about Gimp so I can't help you there. CS2 is Photoshop Creative Suite 2 (the newest version is CS3).

 

[Fenway]

How much is the full blown photoshop?

 

[quicksdraw]

The full version of Photoshop CS3 is around $650.00. If you know a student, faculty or staff member of an accredited institution of learning, you can get a discount. But it will still run about 350 or so. You might be able to get a better deal on ebay, but not by much.
