Hi Carla,

>     break. Give us all a break. Isn't that what THEY get paid for? 

    Forgive me if I've got the wrong end of the stick, but what Nanz
    seemed to be saying was don't do the photoshopping yourself, leave
    it to the publishers, ie. that is less work for you and they can do
    what they're paid for, ie. manipulating raw images to publishing
    standard images. 

    What I understood from what Nanz said was to send raw files which
    they can then improve. If you do your photoshopping yourself and then
    send a compressed file of that manipulated image, the file has lost
    so much data such that it is difficult or impossible for the
    publisher's graphics people to improve the image enough for use in
    publication - send it with as much data as possible no matter how
    big the file. 

    In the example you use, I'm sure it was perfectly acceptable to send
    the image that was an amalgamation of two images, or alternatively
    if someone needed a similar result but did not have a professional
    photographer or was not capable of merging two such images together,
    it would also be acceptable to send the two images in raw format for
    them to amalgamate into one good image. 

    I apologise if I've got it wrong.
