I learned the metric system in grade school, too. It really makes more sense, but for now maybe we can just use <a href="http://creativecurio.com/2007/11/using-points-and-picas/" rel="nofollow">points and picas</a>? :) foresmac,

I remember learning it in 1st or 2nd grade, how the whole world was gonna be metric, And it pretty much is except for the US and Liberia and good ol' Myanmar (aka Burma). That puts us in some pretty good company, eh? I agree, the US needs to get on the metric bandwagon.

I'll give it a try and see how it works with low res images.We mainly use KM here, but some people still quote in miles. And the gas is sold per litre here, not per gallon. Even though the metric system is official here, all real estate properties are still quoted in sq. feet rather than sq. metres - crazy :-) oh, ok – thanks for the warning, Lauren.

Tara. I thought you used Km! No way, you really still use miles??? Is that only in the UK? What about the rest of Europe (and Canada, Vivien?). I think metric, being based on 10, makes more sense than ours, which is based on... nothing. I kind of started to understand and work with metric measurements in school, but I could never get my head around Celsius--though it too makes much more sense... let's see, in F, water freezes at 32 and boils at 212... uh huh. At least they don't make us use Kelvin!Vivien, GF probably won't work all that much better than Photoshop if you're trying to upsample a web image for print (I don't want to mislead you!). There's just no replacing good ol' high res. I recommend you download the 30 day trial and check it out first if that's what you're planning to use it for mostly; see what you think (and let me know!). No, we use miles. Tara.
