cryptojoe, For zooming in full screen (or any) mode...Alt>wheel scroll. In full screen mode (unlike PS7) you are not confined by the "outer edges of the frame"....you can slide your image off screen. That allows you to work on the outer edges or corners of your image "centered" in the window. Not sure what you mean by "the sliders don't work, but you don't need to use them. Adobe added what is called 'scrubby sliders' to the Transparency and Fill functions. Just hover your cursor over the word opacity or fill and it turns into a hand with a double arrowclick and move your mouse left or right to adjust. Bonnie, One of the new features in PSCS2 is a way to.well, find the new features in PSCS2. In the toolbar go Window>Workspace>Whats new in CS2. Now while youre working (or just nosing around), most of the new features will be highlighted in the menus and easy to spot. SWAMP
