QT: Maybe there should be something beside FAQ ;-)

Hi Jude, Mike, Nick and all the others who are responsible for the FAQ.

This week I got such a lot of mails from people who had some trouble with their FCP projects as they contained a lot of PSD files and they got tons of nested sequences in their project.

I don't know why people do it and I mentioned this here several times: there is no need to import PSD files as PSD files except you want to animate they layers or put some VFX on those layers.
PSD files should normally be saved as layered TIFFs from PhotoShop, they will behave like normal (1 track) graphics including transparency within FCP, but as standard PSD files within PhotoShop - this works with any version of PhotoShop since version 5.0 I think.

So maybe there should be something like: "Questions I never thought I should ask them"

Enjoy your weekend.

This sounds like a question people wouldn't ask until it screws them up. Sounds to me like it should be part of a tutorial rather than the FAQ.
