I'm Lovin' It? More like I Hate It.
McDonalds is still the bomb. I don't care if the quality is low, there is nowhere else on earth that you are going to get a cheeseburger quite as tasty as a classic McDonalds burger. I don't know what it is, i admit its a pathetic thin, little burger, but the flavor is unique.- dabeststax

Thanks Eric343!! Regarding sharpening, I get good results with photoshops USM, you don't really notice the artifacts at printouts up to 6x8, and then if you are careful you won't notice them at sizes higher than that. A good site to check out would be http://www.luminous-landscape.com/...- dabeststax

Tarantino is the most overrated director I know of. His films are such shock value tripe. He seems to think that blood and suffering and gore are some kind of movie miracle. Not to mention people screwing each other in the a**. Oh wow, so shocking, what a movie miracle, congrats to tarantino...- dabeststax

I use the pentax *istD. which if you arent printing above 16x20, which I'm sure most of you aren't, provides plenty of resolution... And it's available now for close to the D70's price. The two cameras are very similar, the D70 is about a year newer so it has a couple advantages, and the istD is...- dabeststax
