RE: problems with camera - 5/11/2005 1:25:40 PM    Jules   Posts: 191 Joined: 9/16/2003 From: NE Pennsylvania Status: offline Hey there, I'm pretty good with a digital, feel free to drop an email and I'll be glad to help. Normally the way it works is, when you get the camera, you install the software (drivers) onto your computer via a disc that comes with the camera. (make sure you go through the instillation wizard correctly and reboot) A cable that also comes with the camera attaches to the back of the pc. You then attach the cable to the port on the camera, turn said camera on, go to your pc and into your camera software program and hit transfer. The raw pictures are now on your pc. You want to go into the picture folder (it usually pops up after the pics are transferred) and into the editing software. Here's where it gets fun for this site. When you go into your editing software, you want to save any pictures you're going to post here VERY small (think width 500 pixels by height 350). It'll look tiny on your screen, but it posts here large as life. I promise. Really. Make sure you upload the picture you have edited and saved smaller, I give mine a different name. (Like, it'll upload as DC15409, and when I save it I'll save it as "Scott's Emulsion Green", to tell the difference) When you go to do a post here, click the blue "click here to upload" hyperlink, and make sure you don't forget to check the "Embed picture in post" box. If you do not do both, it will not work. You can only upload one pic per post. Out of consideration for administrations costs, please only post clear photo's and only as many as you need to for members get a clear idea of the bottle. This concludes todays lesson in digital photography 101 as it relates to the Antique Bottles Website. Any questions please see me after class *grin* Regards, ~Julie < Message edited by Jules -- 5/11/2005 2:03:24 PM > (in reply to Tony14) Post #: 4
