I agree with Dick, but if I were to digitally produce 25
images using the DB method (and I have, it's cool) the cost
from the local service bureau would total something in the
neighborhood of $825.00! That's 25 X $32.00. If I chose to
reproduce the image at another size, there's another big
charge.

So, while the digital curves are sublime, the cost is
considerably close to a crime. Sorry, couldn't help the
ryhming thing.

I'd like a university owned (or my own) Lino/Afga film
burner!
