Sweet :cool:

Very nice.

Very cool! I remember flying in with my Stepfather in his State-issued Cessena 182 w/floats (STOL kit) up to lakes in Canada. Fun times. Jump out on the 'toon, throw a line in, fish on. Don't get much better than that.
My touch up software can fix old photos and elimate scratches and dust...would you like me to clean these up for you?

Cool & thanks; they look good. What software are you using? Do you have to remove dust a speck at a time or does the software know how to find it?

In the past I've used PS 7 and CS2. Currently I'm entertained by Digital Pro Suite. It has a very easy to use mini-lab batch processing capability needed for the high numbers of photos I shoot during sports events.
For the dust specks, one must do then individually. It has a global dust and scratch option where you can do them "shotgun approach" but it does not do as good of a job as targeting them individually.
When creating digital montage artwork and "colorized B&W" photos (my "Cash Cow"), Digital Image Suite really shines. I can create a montage in about 10 minutes.
Yesterday I delivered a digital montage to a customer at a wrestling tournament and ended up getting about $500 worth of business by sticking around for an hour after he brought his montage to the stands to show it off. :aok

I've been using MGI Photosuite 4 for about 7 years; it came free with our first digital camera. I think they were bought out by Roxio years ago. Ive tried about 8 other freebies that cave come with cameras at home and work and also The Gimp and Microsoft Photo Editor. The Gimp can do a lot but its pretty hard to use and learn. Ive been thinking about actually buying some decent modern software but just havent made much of an effort to shop or buy anything. I still like MGI the most but use Microsoft Photo Editor and MS Paint for some things.
I have no idea what programs the abbreviations you mentioned refer to. Which do you like the most, why, and how much are they?

CS2= http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/
PS7 is the older version, Photoshop 7.
I like the Microsoft Digital Image Suite due to its simplicity. You can get it on Ebay for around $100 (Or snipe a deal at $40 like I did. :D )
post-processing software is like an opinion, everyone has a different taste. What works for you is best for you. CS2 was clunky, but powerful, PS 7 is outdated and a pita to create digital montage artwork, DIS is perfect for the work I do...
