Dear colleagues,
Happy new year!
In addition to our popular workshops, the Technical Advisory Service for
Images (TASI) offers a free helpdesk service for anyone working within UK
further or higher education:
<http://www.tasi.ac.uk/helpdesk.html>
We answer questions on any issue relating to digital images, from finding
or making them, through to storing and using them - some typical examples
are given below.
You can expect an acknowledgement within a day and a full answer within 5
days. We often answer simple questions on the day received. Where
enquiries are more complicated, we may phone or email you back for more
details.
User feedback shows that more than 99% would recommend this service to
others.
To use the helpdesk, please visit:

Some typical helpdesk questions (but atypical questions also welcomed!):
* How can I improve the pictures I'm getting from my compact digital
camera?
* I'm not a techie - how can I easily publish my collection of images on
the Web?
* How big do my pictures need to be if I'm putting them into Powerpoint?
* Where can I find a good source of free/cheap images?
* I bought an old postcard from a shop - can I put it on my Web site?
* I took a photo for my last employer - can I use it in teaching materials
for my new employer?
* How can I best scan or photograph my fragile books?
* At the highest resolution/bit-depth my archival TIFFs are 480MB - am I
doing something wrong?
Best regards,
Antony
