I installed raster 2011 and start Architecture using the RD for Architecture shortcut and there is no IMAGE tab in the ribbon. How do I get to the RD tools?

First off you might be like me and have to translate many years of using “Image” for the Menu or Ribbon tab name to “Raster Tools.“ It is now "Raster" for the Menubar and "Raster Tools" for the Ribbon.
Next double check that you have a Workspace loaded.
Then check that the Partial CUI for AutoCAD Raster Design 2011 is loaded:
Vista and Windows 7: C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\ARD2011\R18.1\enu\Support\AecCo.cuix
XP: C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Autodesk\ARD2010\R18.0\enu\Support\AecCo.cuix
AutoCAD Raster Design 2011 also requires these additional Support File Search Paths:
C:\program files\autodesk\raster design 2011 oe
A user profile folder:
Vista and Windows 7: C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\ARD2011\R18.1\enu\Support
XP: C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Autodesk\ARD2011\R18.1\enu\Support
C:\program files\autodesk\autocad raster design 2011
C:\program files\autodesk\autocad raster design 2011\help
Let us know how things work out.
Yea, Raster tools, that's what I meant to say
Checked under workspaces, something I never use (for lack of understanding it) but found two workspaces. Architecture (checked) and Architecture - migrated from 2010. I checked the latter and sure enough there they were. Thanks much, now I need to learn about workspaces.
I noticed that happening to all my 2011 Raster installs. Try and repair the install, Raster Tab should show up.
