Is that considered a houseplant? Hmmmmm

I like the grass outside the window, also. Try some neem oil on that rasterize problem. It seems to work for most problems!

I learned a new word today… rasterized and the paperwhites are pretty, are they growing in marbles? Cool idea!

Definition of rasterized: “The process of taking an unrasterized image format such as a vector graphic and applying a size and resolution to it. When an image has been rasterized it is no longer scaleable.”
That’s o.k.— no thanks are necessary for making that clear for you.

Aw, Susan! Who could hate Photoshop? It’s a Darkroom in a Box!

(Disclaimer: bf works for Adobe, so when I have a problem, I have Geek in a T-Shirt to fix it)

Long story short, you don’t need to worry about anything — most common image file formats are rasterized (TIF, JPG, etc.) and must be so in order to display on a monitor.

After looking around a little bit I couldn’t find anything about cameras taking vector-based pictures, so I don’t know why Elements would display such a message.

Paperwhites, though — euw. I can have them around only if I can put them far enough away that I can’t smell them.
