i have started to use raw file, when i take a picture straight lines are not straight, how do i correct this in ACR 7 ?    ta

I want to resize a photo from 1.19 MB to 3 MB so that I can enter it for a competition.I have Photshop Elements 10 and Windows XP. I can't find an easy way of doing this and some sources say it spoils the quality anyway.I don't understand why the same camera - HS10- takes photos of 1.9 MB and also above 3 MB.Can anyonne help?Ayrman 

I am living in Bangkok Thailand. I don't like buying pirated software. However, I am using the latest version of Photoshop which is a pirated version. Cost 6 U.S. dollars. I am unable to find any legitimate software for sale in the whole of Bangkok. Even the major stores sell only pirated versions with any title one can think of. The standard price is 6 U.S.. dollars for any program. Selling these programs here is against the law but corruption in the government allows it.

I thought I'd better have ago at editing some of pitures from my lastest blog. As there was comments about my pics being wonky (my words) Having a good look at my shots I can see what was meant.So for my first attempt I tried something simple. Straightening and a slight crop. I don't know what else I need to do. So any help, comments, advice or offers to come around and do it for me ( tea, coffee and biscuits provided). I used Photoscrape, not sure where I got it from.Am I right in thinking PS Elements will do similar stuff as I did look into getting it.

I am a total beginner in this field - in fact haven't even started and am just asking questions before I dive in, but I'd like to know if the free software such as Photoscape can do things like making high definition clouds and bright blue skies. What can't the free software do that the paid for ones can? Basically, I just want to improve my skies in my landscapes and I'm wondering if the free ones would do a good job.Many thanks,Karen

Over the last couple of weeks a few of you have PM'd me asking for help with RAW and Silkypix, sadly my work and time constraints don't allow me to give 1-2-1 tutition.I also see quite a few people in these forums asking how to do it, so just for youhttp://www.myfinepix.co.uk/article/234175/494015

Now that I'm getting a bit more serious about photography, and since I've seen some very impressive edited images, I'd like to maybe have a dabble at photo editing. However, I haven't a clue about it, what the software is and how to use it. I have heard there are free ones out there. The question is, does anyone have any experience with these, and if so are they any good? Also, how do you learn to use the software?Many thanks,Karen

firstly let me apologise as this surely has been covered elsewhere,megapixels, im beginning to understand that size doesnt matter but I'm thinking in future i may want to print A4 maybe A3 size so what minium mp camera would i need for these tasks ?thanks,oh i did see (i think) some where 12mp would handle this but not sure

Hi,  Could anyone please advise if free online editing software such as Lunapic, Picasa and Pixlr are useful and worthwhile.  I haven't the means at present to buy editing software and wondered if anyone had used these and could recommend, (or not).Many thanks,  Gill

I reall know about  the photoshop 6 that I bought from the net(fully liecensed).  I don't knoe what any of the brushes/ lassoo's do or, even, how to sellect and de-select them.  I'm disabled and living on incapsity benefit so, I need to find, free advice(for a real novice DUMMIE!)
