CS6 has been a step back both on projects I brought forward and new projects. It does perform better speed-wise overall, but is buggier and I often have to turn MP off to make it behave whereas CS5.5 would just not attempt it. stephen van vuuren 336.202.4777 http://www.insaturnsrings.com/ http://www.sv2dcp.com/ http://www.sv2studios.com/ A film is - or should be - more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what's behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later. -Stanley Kubrick
