Hoppy,

In Bill's case, it might not be a question of using the rubber stamp
in Photoshop but of burning it down a bit while printing. Different
techniques for accomplishing similar ends.

So the question of alterations and improvements is not so new.
Photoshop makes it easier to go too far, but it isn't necessary to go
too far :-)
