Much as I like the photo on that book cover, it would kick some serious allusionary ass if they were ravens instead of pigeons.<br><br>I smell a great idea for a Photoshop project.<br><br>

i ended up ordering it yesterday. amazon has a quick order link at the top of the page and it said i could 1-click and get it overnight for only $3.99. of course, i couldn't resist . . . so i am thumbing through the book right now. it's everything i ever dreamed it would be. perfect for what i needed and covers everything i've been curious to learn. and, everything past page 120 is photoshop stuff, which i won't even look at (since i know what i need to know . . . and, since i now use aperture). <br><br>--<br>"I am mindful that diversity is one of the strengths of the country" --president bush on 9/27/05
