Nothing's been changed. If you Alt-click (Option-click on a Mac) the sliders, you can split them and set them at different numbers. Sorry I forgot to mention that.

Are you available for hire? hahaha

Ok, hopefully my last question. My RAW pics all seem to have been saved at 360 ppi. Is this fine or should I change them to 300?

Thanks yet again.

Unless your using an Epson to print, I would change them.

A note for others planning to use this method. Stay away from using the 33% and 66% views. Theoritcally, you could adjust the resolution to get 100 pixels/inch, and use 33% mode to get an effective 300 ppi image. The problem with that is that Photoshop adds a significant amount of anti-aliasing to these view percentages, making them appear softer than they really are. Sharpening at these views therefor often results in oversharpened images. I have found that the 25% or 50% views work best, and have only seen the need for a 12.5% view once.
