Today, I are mostly........

.........going into town to collect my new digital camera. This of course assumes that I had an old digital camera to exchange it with. Wrong! The last camera I had was a present for my 21st birthday - a dim and distant memory - but I do remember the camera as being a very small rectangular thing made by agfa gaevart. You could add a flash by plugging in an upright block of six flashes - a bit of a bugger if two went off together. You couldn't see for about 10 minutes. The whole thing opened out to reveal a view finder and it made one hell of a whining noise whilst it charged up. We have very few pictures of our dog as she would never sit still long enough to be able to take one. We have lots of photos which are blurred due to movement. Anyroadup I am going in the next half an hour and how excited am I? I've done lots of research on the net and have settled on a Sony Cybershot DSC W15. Good lenses, good macro, idiot proof (we'll see) and a reasonable price. It's got other things with it like batteries and chargers and things but they dont really interest me although they probably are a necessity. I am looking forward to pointing and shooting.

I have tried to add photos before to this blog but it wont do it. I've tried taking off the pop ups but it wont go. I've tried to get in touch with someone who can help me but no joy at all. I don't think anyone is bovvered. Never mind I am reformatting the computer next week so hopefully that should solve the probs. I may be some time........ smoke me a kipper I'll be back for breakfast.

I'm a bit of a twit when it comes to computers, but I have managed to get photos onto my blog. However I find it difficult to get them into any order as it always puts the last one loaded at the top.
I've got one to do today, so I'll write down the process and then let you have it......!

If you can't get Blogger to load photos try Picasa2 - its a free download from Google, which organises your photos on the PC and allows you to load them into Blogger.

I generally don't have too much trouble uploading pics, but i find you need to format them to the right size first. What sort of problems have you been having Jooles?
If the new kit doesn't solve it let me know, I'll help if I can.
