like i'm saying...homebrewers swap recipes like kids swap bubble gum cards...i'm referring to recipes from one source while you indicate an alternative (but where's the rex recipe?!)...and i tell you, finding ammonium iron citrate ain't easy in egypt, much less a gold salt...

Digital is the current way of doing it. There have been similar revolutions over the course of photography. One example was the switch to film itself about a hundred years ago. Most of the older processes, replaced by more efficient methods, have something worth preserving. Digital, for example still cannot produce prints of as high a quality as a platinim print in terms of range and gradation and this is especially so in the case of my new albumen/platinum printing method. As to cyanotypes, better results can be obtained with two other chemicals making the cyanotype rex process. There is also a chrysotype rex process, see

Digital is another useful tool in our tool box.
