Mine probably would too, but then again I haven't seen him since before I lost my job seven years ago, guess it is about time to find me a doctor and find out what is wrong with me

Hey guys!  G'day mates!   I got the new one Chiron, and the shoes look good.  Flat or cleated as i call them.  Um, the templates file only loads up in Photoshop.  I wanted to work on it in PSP X, any idea what's up with the color map thingie?  Thats the message I get, cannot read the color profile.  Can ya save it in normal 8 bit color?  I just have CS4 Extended, it won't save the thing any other way than what it loads as.  Protected or somesuch?  Anyway, the SHOES look great, and can simply flavor the existing texture that loads with gold, platinum, chrome or even ceramics.  Whatever.   It's a Grrr with that ICC profile thing.  No biggie!

You lost one job only to have opportunity open wide for you!  I guess!

Sorry to have to beg off for a few hours guys, today was my grocery day, been up since about 5am, swelling getting hurty so time for a lie down.  Well that's better than pushing it and finding myself in the hospital again.  Do NOT play with Diabetes.  It WILL WIN!

Hey McG!
No idea why you cannot open the .psd, I just did it a moment ago with an old Photoshop CS2. And the .psd was already in a very normal 8 bit/channel...
However I'd rather turn around the problem than dig through it: in the attached .rar you'll find the 5 layers individually saved as .png, which should allow you to rebuild the .psd without negative effect on your blood pressure :winks:

All layers are in grayscale (sorry about the 'Basic Mat', it's just a solid gray) but at least for the displacement texture you'll better stick to RGB: the 256 levels of a grayscale produce a rather coarse displacement, the 16-bit .tiff alternative is really huge (don't ask me why), but the RGB seems to offer an almost decent accuracy - apparently 24 bits are still better than 8 even if the information they carry is the same.

But you promise me not to open the attachment till your health is back to normal, OK?    First things first, take care!!!

Did you lose your job or did the job lose you?
In other words, were you kicked out or did you get out on your own feet slamming the door after you? I don't know why but the latter would look more fitting to me...

As for what's wrong with you, please keep in mind that doctors tend to find all kind of improbable exotic diseases just to justify their fees - if you don't like what the first doctor says, see another one; if the names of the diseases don't match you're probably fit as a fiddle

No possibility for you to do a duplicate McG? then the change of mode for RGB (or it is RBG, I always don't remember  )
[never mind, I see the answer of Chiron now]

Like we are in 
I even don't remember when I saw my own doctor - it was somewhere between 2005 (last time I'm sure I saw him) and 2008.
Only docs I see again is for eyes and once last year for teeth.

@ Chiron I was the one kicked to the curb, (after being there for 12 years) when the economy crashed in 2008, three years and six jobs later I finally got lucky with the seventh one and now am in Public Safety Communications. November will be seven years in this field.

@ Aelin last time I saw a doctor am not entirely certain as I typically leave them alone if I am not actually sick. I see the eye doctor on a regular basis since I have been blessed with nearsightedness since about the fourth grade. As to a dentist if I can avoid them I do ... however I still have an unaddressed issue with my teeth that not having any money set aside for that purpose has now been neglected for an extended time and will probably cost more then if I had been able to address it in the beginning.

Plus my teeth, and jaw ache constantly sort of goes with the never ending tinnitus

Before dentist last year (and finally not a true warning), the previous I saw was in 2004, because of wisdom teeth. I'm not wise, but they wanted to come either 
But teeth issues are a pain, that's sure. I hope you find a way to see dentist before damages are worse.

4th grade, what is the age? 10 years old?
For me it's also nearsightedness, since the CM2 (11 years old) - thank you white board with no curtains at windows
