8/25    javascript question. Is there a way to change
        window.href.location without the browser reloading?
        \_ No. This is intentional.
the long end. I really dont take a lot of serious pictures
              in the super-telephone ranges [birds, wildlife, sports], and the
              decent lenses in that area are multi-thousand dollar lenses.
              \- oh you mean the 35mm f/2. look it's probably silly for
                 somebody with say a $1-1.2k photo budget to spend 25-30%
                 on a prime lens unless he wants it for something very
                 specific. the 50mm 1.8 is $100 ... which would be around
                 the 85mm FX FoV and is a fast lens of decent optical
                 quality, eventhough not the most solid construction
                 [less imp for a small, light lens]. now are you going to
                 tell him the 50mm/1.4 is nicer.

8/28    Hi, anybody printed a photo image to a big plotter?  Something like
        36"x36"?  I'm wondering how many megapixels the image need to
        have in order for the print to "look good".  There is a rule of
        thumb?  Like 6 megapixel is good for X size print.  10 megapixel
        is good for Y size print.  Thanks.
        \_ You don't need that many more megapixels for much bigger prints,

4/2     Can someone please click on the nytimes link below and look at the
        top photo (with the living room). I've been searching for a
        poster like that for a few years now; it looks like a blurry
        photo of buildings at night. Does anyone know where I could
        find such a poster, or a similar one, or even what the name of
        such a photo/poster might be? Thanks in advance.

04/02   Anybody know of a program that can generate a big picture collage from
        a lot of smaller pictures?   I'm not looking for a regular photo
        collage maker that just puts the pictures in tiles one after another.
        The big picture being generated can be something like a company
        logo and the small pictures can be company employees photos.  I've
        seen those in annual reports but I don't know how they're generated.
