    Quark 6.5 and 7 on same machine

    Okay, this had 15 views with no response so I figured nobody else was any more certain than I was. I spoke with a guy at Quark and he said that when installing the upgrade version (as I am), I will still be able to run both programs simultaneously from the same machine with no issues and no...

    I just got Quark 7 for my PowerMac G4 at work, and I am currently running 6.5. We have some clients that will not be able to open up anything created in Q7, yet I need to be able to open and edit stuff sent to us in Q7 format. I have heard that there may be some problems if I install Q7 without...

He suggested that most companies will put more timae and effort into refining OTHER features of the...

    Layer mask not working properly

    The fill was checked and at 100%. Didn't know that it had to 100% for all for inks. Nato-why then when you add a layer mask to a layer it automatically switched your inks to white and 0,0,0,100 if you need a rich black?

    Layer mask not working properly

    in Photoshop. The opacity for my brush is set at 100%, and the layers are all on Normal blending mode, yet when I select an area and fill it with 100% black in the layer mask, it appears to only screen back the selected area to about 5% opacity rather than hide it completely. This is happening...

    iPhoto for stock image library?

    I know about the icon view in Finder, but I also already know that it takes to long to load the previews. I have an old version of DickTracker, which is kind of what I was looking for. It's shareware though, and it wants me to register for $30 before I can even play with it. I would like to find...
