    Re:
    -===If Photoshop says its 10cm x 10 cm at 72 dpi, then it will be:
    - 10 cm by 10cm on a monitor displaying 72dpi (don't assume your CRT is displaying 72dpi)
    - something else on a monitor displaying 96dpi
    - something else on a monitor displaying 160dpi
    - something else if printed at something other than 72 dpi
    etc

    this makes no sense, if I am running a monitor @ 72 dpi, at 1600x1200 and its a 17 inch monitor (16.2) do the math....there is way too many factors to believe you can get a decent representation off a images size off a monitor at all.

    I dont know why but this is bugging me.....making me NUTS!

    where's that amatriptaline
