wannabee,
Thanks for the post and the comment on my photos - they are of the Republic of Georgia and were taken when my wife and I visited there in 2006. A great country; very scenic, quite inexpensive by Euro standards, and certainly not especially dangerous although one probably needs a guide to help with the language.

You seem to misinterpret my posts. My original post was in respect to otco's request for info about making an epub of photographs. I personally have little desire to create such a book of my photos, although I might if I had a large screen color ebook reader such as an IPAD. I was merely demonstrating that it is feasible to create such an epub; and I think it is obvious that epubs are valid for showing photographs ON AN EREADER, but not on a computer. As far as the gray-scale ereaders, my Sony 950 does a great job of gray-scale photographs when they are sized for its elongated screen.

As far as Adobe DE, my point is that ADE is not designed for showing large images on a computer screen,and in fact is is really adapted best in general for ereaders rather than a computer. Although I use ADE on my computer to proof text of an epub that I'm creating, I always use an ereader for actually reading epubs for enjoyment, etc. and NEVER use ADE on the computer screen.
