I whipped up a quick tutorial on how to laser engrave a picture using photoshop and lasercad. Let me know if there are any typos.

Thats a nice Tutorial!
Unfortunately not everyone has access to photoshop. I also wrote a Tutorial a few months ago but with freeware tools. It is in german but there's a lot of pictures so you
don't have to understand the text to reproduce it.

Thanks, I was real bored today, the kids were being self sufficient with their projects and the guys down at the High school keep asking about settings and such. The Mac has real good screen capture software built in and this only took about 15min. To hack together.
I'll tell you, the first person to come up with laser software for the Mac is going to corner the market. I know for a fact there is a demand. All we need is a print driver that can interpret PDFs on the Mac and send them via TCP/IP to the laser.

Updated the tutorial with more info and slightly better layout. I fixed some grammar and typos too.
