Well, thought this might be interesting...This is the currency of England, pounds and are worth about twice the US dollar as of writing this. This was taken with a super cheap lens on the 10D.

Here it is:

There is the woefully slow FVU that you can use and PS Elements 2.0. That is no excuse!

belmondo:
I had a feeling you would say something like that. Good one! Heck I can do the same, sorta. I know it is all cha-ching! Your money is used well, I see.

scotgasch:
80 quid is about $147 at international exchange rate. You can figure about 5-10% on top of that for the banks and come up with what I call extortion rate, and varies with how greedy bank x is. You can go to www.xe.com (external link) for international exchange rates.

I didn't mean to jump all over your thread that way, but that was just too much of a perfect softball for a demented mind such as my own. Somewhere, somebody out in the forum is reading this thread right now thinking I'm picking on you. (Let 'em think it---I have broad shoulders and other parts.) Little do they know, you and I go all the way back to July.

Stay warm

What's Issac Newton doing on an English bill? I thought he was American. Isn't he's the guy that invented Fig Newton's for Nebesco?
