Sweet. Good luck on designing. I went to 4 years of college for it and I got burned out within one year. Doing computer work is where it's at as far as I'm concerned.
(By the way, the pen tool is the ONLY tool to use to cut out people. I've seen "professional" graphic artists STILL using the lasso tool. It is very sad. And in case you don't know, Quark is THE only layout program.

) I hate InDesign.
