PShop make grids into a Layer?

Close your eyes for an instant and pretend I want to make my light blue ruler guides into a printable layer. Is there a magical button for this besides print screen?

Firefox Bozos

Why do they always insist that it is THE CORRECT BROWSER when it disobeys the rules set up by CSS such as margins within a DIV?

I want to write text within a DIV that I want a specific size, with specific margins. Why should I pre-wrap it? Shouldn't the browser listen to the rules I set up?

CS4 w/e happened to CTRL+ double click?

So ah, whatever happened to CTRL double click for NEW DOCUMENT and CTRL ALT double click for OPEN AS? All I ever get is OPEN DOCUMENT. Is there a practical reason they felt they had to remove this super useful shortcut? Is it still there? I've been using this all the time since 1999 so it kind of throws me off a bit. :(

-Thanks

Digicam Bags that don't suck?

Where can I buy those? I don't really like the ones I see cause they look like camping gear. And it seems it's the same 3 brands in every store.

Learn Japanese Books?

Are there any good ones that aren't writen in ROMAJI? I'm reading Japanese for dummies. I try to read the hiragana when talking and unfortunately ALOT of the text in hiragana and kanjiis has omissions or mistakes. Especially the particles are sometimes inversed from the phonetic text in the hiragana text. I already know how to pronounce all the hiragana and katakana, so having it spelled phonetically through an entire book isn't of much value to me past this point.

I'd also be curious to buy a Kanjii / English or French dictionary that has no Romaji in it. And instead writes the hiragana above the kanjii.

I looked through about 2 dozen books so far and they're all in phonetic romaji from start to finish or they don't tell you the proper hiragana to type the kanjiis as.

Thanks and god bless ya.

Tablets and Vista

I still use my old serial huge wacom from 1999. Switched to Vista, it seems Photoshop gets it just fine. Other programs work fine if I set the compatibility backwards to XP. IExplorer is total crap so I can't draw oekaki. Harrgh!!

So my question is, are USB tablets just fine? Is a Bamboo good enough until I scrounge cash for another huge Wacome USB? Or does that model act all jumpy in Vista as well?

Vista Vista Vista, I donut like it!

Broken TV

I watched Family Guy last night and I actually laughed. To my surprise, that episode had a plot and punchlines. How is that possible? My TV must be broken.

Is there a difference in quality between seasons because I like American Dad quite alot while I find FG to be debilitating.

Paypal Refunds Rant

If you need to reimburse someone, I suggest you send them money. Paypal's refund takes up to 2 weeks to go through even after the money's been pulled from your bank account. They block it for 6 business days because as I've been told when I called them IT'S LIKE THAT.

Oh btw, somehow, if you buy from Canada to US you'll pay more than US price and when you get reimbursed with US funds, you'll get significantly less in Canadian money. So I just lost 5 bucks in this and my money's being held hostage for 2 weeks. >:(

Word Priority?

Is there a way to give a word top priority in a google search? I tried putting a + sign next to the word I want prioritised, but no dice.

For exemple, when looking for supplies, I'd want google to give me the page with the most "buy" results before the other words.

Thanks!

LA Courtroom Q

Would anyone happen to have pictures of the halls of any courthouse in LA or point me towards potential resources? I tried typing Paris Hilton court etc... but could barely find pics of the courthouse.

I'm ah... short for time. I need to know if the cases are written on an electronic billboard outside the courtroom while in session, and I'd need to know how the halls and the outside looks as well.

Also, if anyone knows if the judge commenting on a defendants examplary behavior would be considered bias and innapropriate?

Since most of this forum seems comprised of criminal bad@sses!!!! I thought I'd give this a try k.

Thanks. :]

Time Estimate?

If say I want to make a FlashMX isometric game made of 4 AI characters running around a level doing random actions. How much time should I prepare to put into it? Is it as simple as tweaking a few values from a ready made script?

I bought FlashMX in 2004 but I've never used it yet so I'm a total NOOB.

Thanks.

Your first time...

working on a computer?

Tell your stories of computer naivete lost. The first time I used Photoshop I kept trying to find out how to hide a whole image within one pixel of another image like in the 80s detective tv shows.

User Reviews A Rant

Browsing ITunes and Amazon, I noticed all albums are nearly 5 stars even the albums that are total turds.

Be objective people! Someone buying a shitty album by your favorite artist is going to find it's a pos if it is a pos. It will not help your precious favorite artist gain a new listener. Only the best albums from your favorite artist should have 5 or 3 stars.

I'm tempted to go on a 1 star reviewing binge to make things right damn it. >:(
