I'm no graduate from Barber School. I don't snip at all here to illustrate. Above is says. "To unsubscribe, see htt..." 2, 3 4, 5 times!!. That's excess baggage for sure! Who the hell needs that?!! Cyberspace will come to a halt because of that!!!!! Animal you grabbed that shot without any prefocusing or zone anything good for you AF whatever but of course we don't know what a f580200combo" is. We're on the Dewey Decimal system here: first three letters of the authors last name. I snip to the essence of the question. It's quite creatively rewarding. The trouble is if you try doing it in polite conversation they can end up with a paper cut on the lip.
