Digital SLR Question

Mon, 08 Jun 2009 20:06:41 -0500

Does anyone have experience with the Sony A-200 or with the sony brand of slr's? How do they compare to Canon, Nikon, etc.?

If you don't have any experience with Sony do you have a brand you prefer over others.

I'm looking into getting a dslr, but don't have a lot of money so it will probably have to be an entry level model. The A-200 seems good and is cheaper than the competition, but I would be willing to spend a little extra if it was worth it. Thanks to any help.

WIP/This idea has probably been done before

I know it's probably not very good, but does anyone have any advice on how to improve it or on where to place it on a shirt? It would probably be centered horizontally, but would a higher or lower placement make more sense? Thanks for any help.

Also I get the feeling an idea similar to this one has probably been done before. So any info on that would be helpful too.

How would someone...

Go about asking their boss for a raise. I've never had to do it before, other places I have worked automatically did it every year.

At my current job I was hired to do photography/cashier work about a year ago. Since then I have become their graphic designer and been promoted to a supervisor position for the photography stuff, but haven't gotten any kind of pay increase.

Is there a proper way to bring it up, or things I should avoid saying/doing?

STP question

Does it tell you in any way if you have successfully stp'd someone during the checkout process? I am unsure if I did it wrong or if it just doesn't tell you.

Any tips for large photoshop files?

For work my boss is having me design a couple banners that are 4 ft by 6 ft. He also wants a lot of detail and images on them so some of the files are up to 4 GB in size. Anyone have any advice on how to keep the files as small as possible? Does merging layers help?

Also does anyone know if .EPS files have any kind of size limit? Thank you to anyone that helps.

Please give my sub some love?

3 days left and only has 3 comments so far. It's sad but I would be happy with 10 comments overall, anyone care to help?

Anyone play games on their Mac with boot camp?

For me boot camp and windows work fine, but when I try and play a game it will work for 10-30 minutes, then freeze and my computer automatically restarts.

Anyone have an idea why this might be happening? I will probably go to the apple store tomorrow, but if someone knows a way to fix it that could save me a trip I would appreciate it.

Something different

Since my last design failed in ways that make me think I have enemies, I decided to take a little break and rethink my strategies. In the mean time I did some patterns for Naked & Angry that I would appreciated some feedback/votes on.

In return if you post your designs here I promise to vote and comment on them. I'll take a look at slogan pages too.

My sub got approved! Help it out with some comments and votes if you wouldn't mind. Thanks!

This has nothing to do with anything, it just makes me laugh.
