still working on the gel picture........
I ran some gels last week and it turned out that the label (on the RNA) was really old so I had to expose them for days and days to be able to visualize the bands (and they were still fuzzy). I ran another gel today and I will have to leave for at least 4 days to get something (I am getting really annoyed with it).
I finished the first version of the gel figure that we want to include in the sxy manuscript. I decided that it is not the_worst_thing_ ever to crop your gel picture and to show only the lanes that carry important info. It is a bit of a patchwork, but I think that it doesn't look that bad.
Thesis writing is going very slowly. I have to do some background reading to improve my introduction info. Hopefully, I will have this section done (together with Methods and Results section) in couple of days. Then, I can finally start working on the discussion!!

It sounds like you're making a lot of progress on your thesis. If you ever want someone to read over it, let me know! I wouldn't mind learning some of the history of your work.
Cutting and pasting isn't bad at all if you tell the reader what you have done and why, and the result is clear and informative, and not misleading. Why waste hours getting the perfect 6ft long gel? I wonder if anyone has ever actually achieved that anyway?
If you were worried you could maybe provide a link to a website with the original pics on.
