Well BellaBoo, this surprises me. Perhaps a little more compassion would be in order. Maybe it could be suggested that a buddy system be set up so that the "non-computer" members could be notified by their buddies. Sometimes it takes a while for some to warm up to change. I'm still struggling with the cell phone and the computer. Thanks to all the members on this board who have been patient with me. One of these days I'll be using the digital camera, etc. I may even warm up to purchasing at long arm.
Don't wait to try a digital camera! I never used to take photos because I hated to fool with the film, focus, lighting, etc. Now I photograph everything and with the Picasa software can even make the bad shots look decent. Nowadays any idiot can be a photographer, me for example!
I agree, get a digital camera, I wish I would have done it when I first thought about it. I use to have pictures on the film in my camera for over a year....no kidding!!
With digital I download regularly so I can see them on the monitor! I did wait for the one I wanted to go on sale as money is always an issue!
Thanks ljorange and Kappy. I do have a digital camera. DH gave it to me several Christmasses ago. I snapped pictures until I had over 80 pictures in there. Tried loading it into the computer with no success (Let me remind you that I am REALLY a duck when it comes to the comptuer -- I've even had classes, but they went too fast for me).Finally my son -in-law loaded the pictures into the computer. I was just learning to post pictures (I actually sent some to this board). [Before this my daughter would send me a picture by email and I would email it to another member and she would post it for me.] Then the old computer died and we replaced it with a new computer. I was told that everything we had in the old one was "sent" to the new one. Well, I'm yet to find th pictures. My attempt to reload the pictures has not been sucessful.
And to make matters worse, I'm having problems with my camera now. I tell you, I'm a duck when it comes to this computer and my camera. Thank goodness I know my sewing machine.
And to add to the drama I have a printer that scans. I could be scanning pictures I've taken with my little disposable cameras but I can't seem to manage the scanner either. QUACK, QUACK.
I'm just not "digitally inclined." I love seeing all of your pictures; please keep sending them. One of these days the light will go on and I may be able to do the same.
