According to Wikipedia:

A void is an empty space. When used as an adjective, the word can also
mean "invalid".

Therefore, I did not think the spelling would be particularly important.

Still, I would be interested in knowing where such a name comes from....
Is it a play on words, or your favorite pet?

Go in peace bro....

The word VOID appears nowhere in my nickname.

You don't think spelling people's names right is important, Blojob?

You wasted the time looking up Void on the Wiki yet you failed to even
bother typing 'voivod' into it. How sad.

Seems overpriced for what it offers. And it's not a "digital editing product
from Photoshop" but just a collection of ideas put together by some guy. You
could get similar advice for nothing by intelligent use of Google.

Please stop quoting the spam. If you feel the moronic need to reply to
spam at least TRIM the URLS out in your reply.

Don't bother.

You can pick up many better and free tutorials from a variety of websites,
just by googling.

Or you could go to revision 3, or Itunes, and download the FREE pixel perfect
lessons, that take you step by step with actual screenshots of each step with
commentary. Specifically the pixel perfect demo to match the sky demo at this
PAY page would be 'PixelPerfect - HDR Secrets: Amazing Photography Tricks'
http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?i=30211870&id=215218712
this is the itunes URL. I'd say go to revision3, if you don't want to use
Itunes..

a field in the mid day sun.. Complete darkness to full head on sunlight.

The LARGE quick time are the best. the smaller ones, I have no idea why they'd
even waste bandwidth making these. You need to be able to SEE the settings he
uses. the small ones are mostly just a blur.

Currently I show there being just over 100 episodes. #100 took a tour of his
shop.

It was old the first time you hit reply. As for my goat, you're far too
impressed with your feeble attempts.

Just because you feel the suffering of your fellow moron doesn't mean
you need to prove you're one too.

Hey,

Our design company is looking to structure itself better. After using
excel-based timesheets for 15 years (ugh), we're looking to switch to an
intranet-based project management system to track projects' evolution, hours
invested, company billing, etc. Or rather, a bunch of us in management are
looking to convince the higher-ups that this is now necessary.

Basically, we're looking to adopt a system like Jira
(http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/) or Fogbugz
(http://www.fogcreek.com/FogBUGZ/).

So I was wondering if there was either :

1) A well-recognized industry leader in project management software (like
Wordpress is to blogs)

2) Or, alternatively, a Graphic Design-specific project management system

Either of the two would certainly re-assure my superiors enough to go ahead
with the idea. Being able to do all our billing with the same software would
also be a tremendous plus.

Thanks!

Then what you want is a genuine Material Requirements Planning
(MRP,MRPII) system in conjunction with a Critical Path Precedence
Modeling system (as you imagine it with visual charts (Gant), to show
the chain of dependencies over a project's lifetime.

Or continue with the Mickey Mouse amateur crap you point to.

Your superiors are not likely smart enough or motivated enough to
consider a real solution because they have not come up with the same to
date.

Apparently you think that insulting the listener will make you sound
powerful, right?

How did you get decades of experience in anything when you have the
mindset and attitude of an adolescent? More likely, you have decades
of experience being ignored because you're bascically an asshole.

Nah. I just resent amateur management.

If you use Adobe products, you might want to look into their
server-based version and data management system.

Hello,

I scan images often and would like to set a threshold that would
convert the pixels below the threshold to white (0) automatically in
an image. Is this possible? Do I need a filter or need to develop a
script?

Thanks,

André Luiz
