Costco has it for about $70, and Amazon for slightly less than that. There's so much I'd like to do photo-wise on my blog, but the amount of time it takes me with my current method makes me think there must be an easier way.<BR/><BR/>thanks again!!tracy @mamacreateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13341796133896796756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4915551909553399839.post-76630796493907535292007-06-13T18:49:00.000-08:002007-06-13T18:49:00.000-08:00Ok, here it is:Inspiration Friday Photos: All of t...Ok, here it is:<BR/>Inspiration Friday Photos: All of the above, I scan, I steal, I use. Just depends on how much time I have...<BR/><BR/>Photoshop: I have heard a rumor that there is a cheaper version of Photoshop that runs around 100.00 retail (and can be found on Ebay for around 60.00) that is just as good as the regular photoshop UNLESS you are restoring pictures, then it is no good. Also you can get a trial version for 30 days for free on their website. I don't have photoshop (on my list of things to do...) so I just use the <BR/>microsoft picture software that came on the computer under "My Pictures."<BR/><BR/>Picture Size: This is probably a partial camera issue. Your camera probably has 2-3 settings for quality. I mostly leave mine on the middle quality because it doesn't take up as much memory on my camera and is easier to upload to the computer and sites etc.<BR/><BR/>Picture to top of Blog: This I work in in Publisher. I cut and paste pictures into a publisher document and make it about the size I think it should be on the blog. I add text etc. Then I "select all" and "save as a picture" making sure to save it as a jpeg. <BR/><BR/>I don't know if this is how other people do things, but this is how I have found to "work the system." Let me know if any of this makes sense or helps!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08330901242810245004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4915551909553399839.post-79656664889248348252007-06-13T07:57:00.000-08:002007-06-13T07:57:00.000-08:00I can see your pictures just fine ~I can see your pictures just fine ~tracy @mamacreateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13341796133896796756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4915551909553399839.post-71711309360032407282007-06-12T19:53:00.000-08:002007-06-12T19:53:00.000-08:00Good questions and I'm anxious to hear the answers...Good questions and I'm anxious to hear the answers! I know what you mean about pictures taking forever to post. All my pictures are stored in Picasa. Aunt Georgia said to email them to myself (from Picasa) first, save to my desktop, and retrieve the picture from there. That's how she does them for Petfinder. For some reason, it decreases the size.... and now it only takes seconds for my pictures to post. I wonder if my pictures load okay on other people's computers.... momThe Weathered Panehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01382850584196543348noreply@blogger.com
