Trying to figure out how to manage my swatches and organize libraries.  I have lots of Ben Moore and Sherwin Williams paint colors downloaded and it's hard to find the colors easily, by name or number of the swatch.  It doesn't allow me to create separate paint libraries.  Any suggestions?  Thanks!

I am used to adding captions to my photo's. This morning that was-not possible anymore. When I type a caption in the caption box it disappears when trying to save it to the image file. This is a nuissance for me, because I use this discription to find files on certain topics in my 35.000 pictures library. What could have happened and what can I do to solve this problem?RJS

It is great that Adobe will be contributing to the Australian economy by collecting and forwarding GST to the Tax Office.  My gripe is we already pay significantly more than US customers for the same downloads.  Why can't Adobe absorb the cost of the GST instead of increasing the cost to the customer?

I stumbled on this old post over on the Illustrator forums: ornate flourishes . In it, the original poster asks for a recommendation for "an app or plug-in out there that allows you to do really ornate flourishes, or lets you control the radius of the flourish and its thickness." The responses he receives include the following.What is up with all these questions about plug-ins or tool to do work and replicate skill?The tool is the pen tool. The plug-in is skill, patience, and experience. You might acquire that plug-in by searching for tutorials.Skills, you don' need no stinkin' skills these days. You want flourishes? It's all just clip art off of the Internet. You don't need design and typography skills, just type it into a computer and it should look perfect....It’s practice, practice, practice.
