George, this would have been useful:

You can do search and replace on file names, including extensions

Because sometimes others can learn from the answers
Personally, though, I've done enough "hand-holding"

I have a couple of split screens I bought from China.
You're welcome to buy them if you want... but they are much darker than the supplied micro fine screens supplied in the Pentax DSLRs.

One of them has a positively huge split screen - roughly hacked up from a Minolta I believe. Works pretty well actually, but I preferred the original screen.

Anyhow, PM me if you're interested in buying & trying them out

Rule number 1 when setting up a complete CMS:
Don't use one of your own images!

How do you really know what it looks like??

Use a reference image created by someone else. For example, use the PhaseOne-CMS checker.tif file loaded with Capture One LE & Pro. It's in AdobeRGB - load it into PS and print it.

That'll sort out where your problems really lie

(And by the way, it's a big big subject! If you bought your stuff from Colour Confidence then you can phone them - they have a helpline)

Bottom line - trust PS. NEVER, ever assign the monitor's profile to the image. That's a real "Doh!".
Assuming you've set up PS-CS3 as mentioned in the thread - you trust that. Anything else that's not color managed you ignore (Irfanview, smeggy Windows photo viewer etc) It's perfectly normal to have a mismatch between a colour managed app and non.

Likewise, when you use Photoshop's "Save for Web" - that is displayed without the color profile.

Any more advise and I'll have to charge you for it

Frames is only old hat when it comes to search engines (they hate frames, probably because so many abused them!)

However, there are easier ways to deal with frame-like setups. For example SSI (server side includes) can simulate frames for you - for example your menu and title can be done as an SSI and then each page can easily load the common parts.

If you really want to load a div with HTML, then you can do this with AJAX techniques. Particularly the Javascript XMLHttpRequest method That'll allow you to hook back a page of data and then you can inject it straight into the div with Javascript.

Sounds messy, and it's a right royal pain to test on multiple browsers...

...maybe you should look at SSI instead

Great gallery
Thanks for sharing! Did she get your lens in #41??
Matt

Which is odd indeed. The DS I have works great with the SMC-F 50/1.4 lens...

Maybe the focus IS out and that it shows up worse with fast lenses Use the focus test chart and camera on tripod aimed at 45 degrees (see other threads on the subject or PM me for more help!)

I use Eclipse and PecPads for cleaning.

Just don't ever, ever, EVER hit or drop the Pro1 filters. They splinter into a million razor sharp (front element cutting) pieces

There is also a WINE derivative for Mac OSX from CodeWeavers ( http://www.codeweavers.com/ ) that allows you to run a large proportion of Windows applications without even requiring a Windows license

(WINE provides a kind of glue-layer to make the Win application think its running on Windows, when actually it's on Linux/Mac etc).

But, if that doesn't work, then there's the VM method. I use VMWare and VirtualBox ( http://www.virtualbox.org/ ). With these you create a little "container" that is a virtual machine into which you install your Windows CD, and then the applications. It's a nice way of having Windows 95, 98, 2k, XP, Linux etc all running on one machine (albeit a bit slower).

Have fun!
Matt
