Oh, and I've also alternated between images, checkerboarding them.

Art Crawl!!!
Yeah, but I'm not PRINTING them. I have to send them to media services to be printed and their requirement is for High Res pictures.

Ah sorry. Not helpful then.

I suspect that they sent them at screen resolution which is 72dpi and will look like hell no matter what you do to print them.
I disagree. It depends on how large the prints need to be. If Sumi is being sent images that are, say 1280x1024 (what you'd get from a cheap 1.3 megapixel camera), then as long as they're being printed at 4"x3" (or less), they'll look fine. It's not the dpi of the original photo that matters, it's the size of the shot in pixels and the size at which they need to be printed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Help! As I've been talking about in Natter, I spilled some soup on my laptop last night. It was basically on the touchpad, so I thought I kept it from getting inside anywhere. No such luck, apparently, as my left mouse button mostly doesn't work any more. It has come and gone, but mostly doesn't do anything. I wiped it down with rubbing alcohol, which seemed to help short-term, but didn't fix the problem. Is there anything else I can do from here? I'm scared to open it up.

I don't have a suggestion, but will make an observation. External laptop touchpads, key pads, keyboards and mice are all comparatively cheap these days.

Oh sure, but using a separate mouse would require not using the laptop on my actual lap. Or getting some kind of lap desk. Anyway, not that simple.

Hope it is solvable.

All is well that ends in pizza.
It must be the day for it.
Water was just spilled on Andi's 17 inch Powerbook.
We shut it off and inverted it.
I also took out the battery.
We'll check it in the morning.

That reminds me.
Drew, if you buy a new Macbook, are you selling an old one soon thereafter?

Also, my Mother is wanting a cheap used Powerbook or Macbook, if anyone has a good deal on one, let me know the specs.
