Hi folks, I uploaded a track I recently wrote for my company's stock music library.? It has a few rhythmic tickles that might bring a smile to your face.? It is loosely based on the "cut and paste" arrangement style of such artists as The Books and Prefuse 73.? To qualify for posting to the group, sprinkles of tron were added. It's a little dense here and there, but then again, so am I. enjoy, fritz

Folks, I've been entranced with the latest Imogen Heap release "Ellipse"...highly recommended. For those who like thoughtful electronica, bits of strings and other wooden instruments, fun and deep lyrics and don't mind the lack of tron.? She is quite the talent.? Kinda drifts into a bit of the IDM genre here and there, but hey, who hasn't been on the dance floor at least once in their life? Mike and Tony probably won't like it :>) fritz

Tony, Professionally speaking, Photoshop is the only way to go. Yes, it is a huge program and seems very confusing, but if you have it already, I would suggest learning how to do the things you want to do with it. Just because it's a huge program that does basically anything you could possibly want it to do, doesn't mean that you have to know everything about it. So if you do have it, you might want to check out the tutorials at lynda.com. They are really terrific and the site has tutorials that cover just about any software you might want to use. Everything is clear and concise and you could learn that bit you need to know about Photoshop, quickly and easily. Two or three of my "hobbyist" friends say Photoshop Elements is quite good and with a free trial, you could check it out before laying down your cash. Rick

I use Paint Shop Pro v9 (the last JASC version; I hate v10 and 11, the Corel versions). It's about 1/6 the price of Photoshop and does almost everything Photoshop can do. Bernie --- In newmellotrongroup@yahoogroups.com, "tony1" <atm655@...> wrote:

Yes, I use it, although not under Windows. Their web site <http://gimp.org/> lists a Windows port that you can download though. It's pretty powerful and often compared to Photo Shop, although I can't say because I don't use Photo Shop. It has a somewhat different user interface. It's been around a long time so it's pretty mature (meaning not buggy), and still under active development. Anyway, you can't beat the price. Bob S. Mark Pring wrote:

Never though you were lazy. I was just thinking that if you had Photoshop, it's easier to learn how to use what you need than going out and buying another program and learning that. The learning curve is the same, regardless of the package. Rick

You have to wonder if they are that committed to doing these terrible things then is it enough to exempt them from the service.
I think they should reclassify the muslums as potentially dangerous cult members…..they seem to prove this is true in many cases.
I am not a racist nor do I have anything against religion but when that religion tells you to strap on a bomb and kill children then
I have no sympathy towards their beliefs. They are criminals ….nothing more and need to be treated as such. Sorry, I know this is
not a forum for such discussions but I have friends (living & dead) that have suffered and died from political correctness and this issue not
being dealt with using all of the force and aggression it deserves. How many other innocent victims of this cult need to die?
Apologies,
Gary

You have to wonder if they are that committed to doing these terrible
things then is it enough to exempt them from the service.
I think they should reclassify the muslums as potentially
dangerous cult members…..they seem to prove this is true in many cases.
I am not a racist nor do I have anything against religion but
when that religion tells you to strap on a bomb and kill children then
I have no sympathy towards their beliefs. They are criminals ….nothing
more and need to be treated as such. Sorry, I know this is
not a forum for such discussions but I have friends (living
& dead) that have suffered and died from political correctness and this
issue not
being dealt with using all of the force and aggression it
deserves. How many other innocent victims of this cult need to die?
Apologies,
Gary

What makes me sad is that I understand not wanting to be put in a

his education, but not to pay for it. You have to wonder what they're
talking about behind closed doors. This is the second time this has happened
with Muslim soldiers. So what do they do, exempt them all from fighting? Toss
them out of the service? This is going to happen again.
