I am still looking for a definition of "definitin"
Other than that, isn’t Spam a canned meat product also?
"An e-mail message sent to a large number of people without consent, also known as Unsolicited Commercial E-mail (UCE) or junk e-mail. Spam is usually sent to promote a product or service. It is also found in newsgroups, where people post identical and irrelevant messages to many different newsgroups that have nothing to do with the content of the posting. Some newsgroup users distinguish spam from velveeta (which is to cross-post to an excessive number of newsgroups), and consider spam to be worse because posting messages separately drains more disk space and network bandwidth."
Interesting, you post a quote with no reference, as an anonymous individual in a public forum and you expect this to have any weight with me? I posted my opinion of spam a few threads back. It is an opinion, while yours may differ, arguing that my opinion is wrong, is laughably ludicrous.
Now lets look at his message. Was it unsolicited e-mail? No. Was the message mass posted to Usenet groups? Only a few of them.
In other words, Yes?
Was the message Irrelevant
to the group he posted it to? No. Photoshop is used all the time for glamour shots.
Although he claims that "you will have no problem translating the commands into PhotoShop" on the front page. It was written for PSP. Did you even look into anything that you are arguing about or do you just love to argue?
Now you may not like his post, but it isn’t spam. I don’t like your post
So? You would be delusional to think I might entertain the slightest care.
"Spamming crap still…" But I am not calling it spam. Even though yours is far more irrevevant that his. So yours fits the definition of spam a lot more than his did.
Why, Because mine was "An e-mail message sent to a large number of people without consent, also known as Unsolicited Commercial E-mail (UCE) or junk e-mail."? Also, what is your definition for "irrevevant"?
I would rather have you call mine spam than wade through your long winded redundant post once again.

I am still waiting for your witty replies to the following posts:
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.graphics.apps.photo shop/msg/2d4d456e3fac647c http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.graphics.apps.photo shop/msg/5fddc18730ec07ae I am also awaiting the source of your truncated definitions. I am tired of splitting hairs with you. You say tom(ah)to… etc. Would you sleep better at night if I had replied that the post was in my opinion a bunch of unsolicited crap and the image that accosted my eyes upon visiting the site looked Sophomoric at best? By the way, do you ever let the people who were addressed in the posts answer for themselves?
P.S. This is my last entry on this thread.
