In CS3 Save for Web dialog box showed a small icon beside to the 'Quality' slider where you could choose an alpha channel and fine tuning the level of Jpeg compression. In the same dialog box there were options for text layers and vectors. I think the box was called 'Quality Image settings.
What I'm trying to do, Ramon, is teaching my students where Adobe put that options in the CS4 release...even if I'm an ACI I can't know everything...an ACI is not a clairvoyant :-)
Probably my english is getting worse, I do apologize for that.

Are you sure? I don't have CS3, but as far as I know jpg has never supported alpha channels or text layers, so why would those options appear in Save for Web? Certainly not there in previous versions.

It allows text layers to be compressed less tan the image if desired.
The resulting JPG does not have layers of course.

Help for this option in CS3 <http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/Photoshop/10.0/help.html?content=WS078C8C90-AEAB-423b-B02E-5ABB3B8C7E25.html>.
For CS4, it may have been dropped. Ozan was looking for this on January 15 in the comments section at the bottom of the page <http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Photoshop/11.0/WS29D0201B-A3E2-4339-9747-8FB540762EE3.html>.

Your English is fine.
It may be worth a continued search. Many things have been moved. While I am not at CS4 now, it was available in CS2 and CS3 so it is unlikely to have been a transient feature.

I know what your saying Mike, but one has to remember that people had adopted HDR for quite some time before PS started playing with it.

Yes, but you have to understand that Chris can only do what he can in his environment. He has people to answer to and more then one company as well. To be honest, Adobe is out of control at this point and they have lost the essence for fear of retaliation by its customers. It's a case of damn if you do and damn if you don't. The real problem is the people higher up who have NO BUSINESS making decisions on how and industry shall be steered are the ones pissing off the majority of people that are being affected by said changes.
All this comes down to the lack of market research in the industries they cripple based upon their semi tempest decisions - do to the lack of actual real world experience because they are developers and not entrenched in any specific field they affect.
I call it irresponsible plight for the sake of corporate stock holder edification.
But we all do what we can as individuals - but the real problem is tunnel vision because Adobe REALLY does not understand the markets they cater to...

At least you don't end up with multiple Layers all named the same. That's all.

Copy seems like a pretty lame name. How many "new new" files you ever worked on Ed? Or "final final final". Or my fav: "final new" (or "new final").

Really Ed? It's a shame you've never had the pleasure of working on a file called "Rockin Brochure new new". You think, "I'll bet the new new new version will be even better". I have no idea why copy 1 2 and 3 are any more useful or professional than three layers with the same name, and was hoping for enlightenment.

I think it's all about optimizing the workflow for professionnal designers.
I would prefer the new copy to keep the same name as there is more chance I want it to be named the same way. If I really want to name it differently, then I'll do it myself. Having to go in each subfolders to remove the Copy is a nuissance. It is counter-productive and breaks the workflow.
The best option for everyone would be to add the word "Copy" only on the first level, and not the sub-levels of items.
Let's say I have a folder called "Root" which includes a subfolder called "Subfolder", which contains a couple of layers. Duplicating the "Root" folder should make a new one called "Root Copy" but it should *NOT* add the "Copy" tag to the "Subfolder" and whatever layers/folders contained in it.
The screenshot I posted previously explain the whole issue by itself and I don't see why anyone could argue with this.
I can understand it does not make sense to a photographer using Photoshop for retouching. But for a heavy user who makes use of the folders system a lot, it is self-explanatory.
Talking about folders, I'm also still dreaming about Photoshop to handle properly the 5th level of folders. Re-ordering folders on that 5th level does not work. Works fine on the 4th level, but 5th doesn't.

It just strikes me as silly. If I have a Layer named "face" and I duplicate it, it's named "face copy", which tells the story. Sometimes I'll work on the copy and leave the original alone. This way I know which is which.
Simple and useful.
But, whatever you like.
Still not able to make sense of J's posts. Oh well.

Not arguing with you ...just saying that I don't see it as an insane feature at all. Perfectly reasonable.

"Copy" tells a story. "Copy 3"?
I use copy as my backup. So our stories are different, Ed. That's what I'm talking about. For you it means one thing, for me another. Not particularly useful for Ms. Third Party.

I installed two new 1TB Hard Drives this week, and reinstalled all software fresh. I was hoping this would resolve some of the ongoing problems I've been having with email and other misc. bugs. But I was overly optimistic and some of the problems seem to have followed me to my new setup, only now a little more difficult.
So if I may imposed on you all once again…
Mail Question:
Does anyone else have ongoing on again/off again problems with Mail?
It seems I get some mail and then don't get it for a while. It's intermittent. I researched this and found this advice at (I think was) the Apple Website:
I think for your issue on the one Mac, the next best thing to do is quit
Mail, and in the Finder open Home/Library/Mail and locate the file named
b MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3 and delete it. It may have become corrupt.
Now relaunch Mail, and it should download all messages that currently
reside on the POP server, including any previously downloaded.
I did this and it worked to a point, although to my dismay I was overwhelmed with all past emails that are still on my server. After sorting through them all I thought I was set. But now it seems to have happened all over again. There must be some sort of corruption going on with Apple Mail and the new install.

Actually I probably should find my login information and post at the Apple Website. I'll leave my post above just in case someone can help.

Linda,
to my dismay I was overwhelmed with all past emails that are still on
my server.
Is this possibly a server or server interface issue? Did you check your settings?

Neil, I assume you mean my settings at iPower. I'll check them, but I don't think it's related since I now can get email on my previous setup when I boot from the old drive. Also I get email on my laptop.

Update: Email now has quit coming through on my laptop. It's always this way. On again, off again.
This is just one of the reasons my husband got disgusted with the MacBook Pro and gave it to me. He doesn't have these problems on his PC.

That is very true. The photos I were given weren't that great. They were RAW files, so that is nice, but they shot it on a green screen that wasn't evenly lit, several of the models had come green hues in their clothing, & one of the models was even wearing a reflective jacket & shoes. So, that being said, it's pen tool all the way. I've messed around with Mask Pro before. I thought it was decent. Perhaps I should try it again. But I guess when you're relying on others to photograph the models, you're at the mercy of their training!
Thanks for the advice!

Is defringing a way of contracting the selection or does it have to do with tweaking some halo color remnants? If it's contracting the selection, I either use the feature under modify, or the Minimum feature in filters to reduce my mask by a pixel or two.
