Hello Kurt- thanks for the information about the uses of photoshop for archaeology.  As a photographer I use it every day, but hadn't really thought about its utility in this context.  The documentation you've provided has been very useful and I'd like to learn more, however I'm unsure whether I'll be able to attend the SHA meeting.  Are there any other references or resources you can suggest to check out?  Anything would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Leo Demski
