Well, I haven't tried THAT specifically - but I have tried using the auto blend on several different groups of images ... and it happens any time I use more than 3 images, regardless of which images I'm using.
-
I am relatively new to auto-stitch and auto-blend. I am running Photoshop cs3 and shoot RAW with a Canon 40D. I
have successfully stitched/blended four, five and six images before without a problem. About two weeks ago I was
working with five images - I got them stitched fine and went to auto-blend the layers and Photoshop crashed.
Ugh! Well, after trying to do the same thing a few times (and of course, each step of the stitching/blending
process takes several minutes), I was thoroughly frustrated and gave up.
I have tried a few times over the past couple of weeks and had the exact same problem. With four images or more.
Not with three. Which led me to believe that the problem was merely a memory problem. (My iTunes library is
too big for any sane person to manage!) So I spent lots of time deleting lots of stuff from my hard drive.
Still, the same exact thing happens - auto-stitch works fine, but PS crashes when I run auto-blend. I even tried
shutting down all other programs (even Bridge) while running the auto-stitch and auto-blend. No such luck.
Has anyone else had a similar experience? Does anyone have a suggestion? Or a website that you can point me to
(I've tried doing google searches, but either I'm the only one with this problem or no one has put anything about
it online yet or I'm searching the wrong string..... I can't find anything.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks for the comments, all. Lex - I absolutely agree with you. But, having said that, I suppose that my point in posting those links was a bit two-fold. I almost always ask very specific questions for critiquers of my photos so that they know what I'm looking for. I am finding that the trend in comments, though, is going toward the "nice shot" end of the spectrum, and not more in-depth comments - like you said, "what is your response to this photo". I would like to receive comments that more directly address the photo - response, technical stuff, details, etc. all included. Secondly, I suppose that I posted the links because after five years at PN, I have found my own comments getting shallower and shallower. I find that my comments on the photos of my "friends" tend to get chatty (as opposed to "critique-y") and comments on the images of others are getting more like "nice shot". Yeah - bottom line is that I don't want PN to start looking like some of the other photo-dump sites out there...

Looks great, Josh! :-)

<p>I'm not sure if this is the right forum/place for this post. If it's not, let me know and I'll move it. :-)
<p>Within the past two or three days I've read two decent blog posts about how to constructively critique a
photograph. I think there are some great ideas here. Photo.net, in my opinion, is so much better than so many
of the other photo sharing sites because of the depth of the comments that are received here. Because of
comments on my photo.net posts I have grown significantly as an artist. (Trust me, what you see these days is
much better than what I was posting five years ago!)
<p>Here are the links to the blog posts. Do you have your own thoughts about valuable critiques on photos?

<p>I hope these are helpful reminders for all of us!

I am in shock! Alberto was the first photographer on photo.net who took an interest in guiding me as a new photographer. I cannot believe that I have lost Sarah and Alberto in a matter of a few weeks.
-
Okay - no nitpicks from me. I think it looks 10000000% better! (I have a degree in Mathematics!) :-D Thanks SO MUCH, Josh and all of the css-gurus.
By the way, Matt - you can't possibly feel 5 years younger because you're only two photo.net-years old. :-)

Thanks, Linda, for starting this thread.....

After I took these two shots, we went down the stairs and promptly got
in trouble for taking photos of the seafood in the bins.......<div>

Sorry if I post "too" many, but I was having a tough time choosing
which photo of Sarah to use. The following images were all taken
either in DC or in the Greater Boston area, on two different
"shooting" get-togethers. I am so sad, yet have found that looking at
my photos of Sarah and remembering how much fun we had ... well, it
has been helping me sort through my emotions...<div>

Whoa! I just saw this! Congratulations, Linda! :-) (I always loved that image!)
-
Sarah's images will always inspire me to look for the color in life. She was a dear friend, both on and off line. I will miss her so very much!

I just want to add that, after a few days of watching the thumbnails somewhat closely (on my pages and on those of others), I am so happy with this change. I have decided to try to do a one-for-one deal, where if I am going to comment on someone's recent image, I'll also use the thumbnails to comment on an older image by the same person. I'm finding treasures that I hadn't previously seen ... and am getting comments on older images in my own portfolio that haven't been touched for a few years. Yay! Thanks, guys!

Matt, in Josh's original message: <i>"One important note, images that you have in "hidden" folders will NOT show up as thumbnails."</i>

Got it! Thanks again, Josh!

Lex, nothing makes folks very happy. :-)
