hello there! so maybe not many of you remember, but i busted in here a week or two ago, and caused a bit of a ruckus over color space and such... made some promises about tutorials, etc, then never delivered. Well. just wanted to apologize in case any of you were concerned. I honestly had some good intentions, but did not forsee a project which soon did land in my lap. Somehow, someone thought it would be a good idea for me to design and produce the annual report for my local public school system! (i live in Portland, OR, population: a few million) Actually, its more like a three year report, covering some 50-ish pages, coming at a hyper-critical time with them choosing a new superintendent, funding crises, etc. All eyes are on me right now, and they're hoping i can be at least a small savior. No pressure, right? So, this has pretty much consumed my life and will continue to do so for the next couple of weeks. So, anyway, i apologize with all me heart for not following through and hope that i didnt disappoint too much. As soon as i get a moment or two to breath, i promise i'll put together a nice easy Lab tutorial (if anyone's interested), and will throw in a really really useful grain and sharpening trick (if desired) as well.

Thanks for your patience and understanding,
Earth.
