Pretty much a necessity for digital photography

Firefox, Chrome and Windows Media, oh my!!!. When they say "Everything is bigger in Texas" I didn't know that also meant how much you have open/running on your PC at once, lol.

Oh, and your welcome. For me it is so much easier to understand something when you can watch how it's done. Glad it helped.

Probably pretty dumb not to crop all that out, but what the heck.......

Greatest thing I ever learned was get a cable that runs from the sound card to a stereo amp, so instead of desktop speakers, I have a real stereo driving real speakers; and with the internet, I have access to public radio stations everywhere. So I stream music all day, listen to excellent jazz, folk, progressive country .... you name it, without commercials.

Chrome is my favorite for most browsing, and Firefox provides most stable music streaming.
