]]> <![CDATA[Apple Aperture 2.1: Now With Plug-In Architecture]]> @MikeHinds: There are parts of the world (british English) that refer to groups of people with plural verbs. In fact, it's a contextual thing, and either way is correct, though location and context change which one 'feels' right.

]]> <![CDATA[Apple Aperture 2.1: Now With Plug-In Architecture]]> @MikeHinds: Sorry, I appreciate all attempts at keeping grammar on the path of the Good and the Right, but you're not, as it were, entirely correct. In the US, you're correct, the language treats corporations as singular entities; however, in "British English," corporations are viewed as composite entities by default, like any other group such as "children" or "Blondes" or "people." Thus, in the US it would be considered correct to say "Apple is" and in Britain is correct to say "Apple are." Just depends which side of the Pond you happen to be from. And, since Britain was in the business of English before we were, I think it's hard to say that the American way is "right." It's just different.

i dunno why you say that, but it always asks me when i import from cards.
other than that, you can set some import rules, such as move/copy files, which may work too.

]]> <![CDATA[Apple Aperture 2.1: Now With Plug-In Architecture]]> "Apple have tweaked Aperture"
"Apple are even starting you off"

"Apple" is singular, not plural, but one company (It doesn't matter how many employees, stockholders, or IPods it has).

Call me a grammar nazi and I'm guilty as charged, but baby-talk from adults, especially professional writers, is more insulting than "grammar nazi".

]]> <![CDATA[Apple Aperture 2.1: Now With Plug-In Architecture]]> Aperture 2.1 updates various features of the application and addresses issues related to performance and overall stability. The updates include the following:

Dodge & Burn Plug-in. A sample plug-in is pre-installed, taking advantage of the Edit API introduced in Aperture 2.0. The plug-in adds brush-based tools for Dodge (Lighten), Burn (Darken), Contrast, Saturation, Sharpen and Blur.

Updated Crop Tool. A simplified UI makes it easier to preserve an image's original aspect ratio, match the aspect ratio of your display, or use one of the standard preset aspect ratios.

Show on Map. A contextual menu allows you to choose the Show on Map by right-clicking (or Control-clicking) on an image that contains GPS data.
