Theme: Competition - Sub £10 Camera

[Hamish Gill]

Just buy a new one ... There is no point in pretending you don't want to.
I bought one

I took a funny turn for a moment when I thought Brian had enough cameras. Of course he needs to buy a new one!

Ok boss,...if that's what you want me to do...

@Hamish Gill - You gave me access to the blog, but when I looked at it now I couldn't see how to start a blog entry, no "Create new blog post" button. How do I do it? And can I write it over a few days, only "publishing" it when ready?

 

[Hamish Gill]

Did what I just did send you a confirmation email?

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Eh?

"Page not found"

 

[Hamish Gill]

oops ... try again

 

[Rob MacKillop]

OK. I've put a little text in, and have saved Draft. I will be writing it properly over the next few days, before submitting for review.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

I can't place jpgs between the text. I'm very familiar with WordPress editing. I couldn't see an Add Media button, so just dragged a jpg into the editing window. That opened up the Insert Media window, but gave a red Error sign, no matter which jpg I tried to include.
Advice?

 

[Hamish Gill]

Sorry Rob, you should have the add media button now

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Hamish. We'll get there eventually! Just back with another 36 images. Actually, 40 in all, from one role. That's my record. How does this happen?? XP2 again.

 

[Hamish Gill]

40, that is good! Have you never noticed that a lot of cameras start at -2...

Same reason disposable cameras are 27 shots not 24

 

[Pete Askew]

Shame. I bet that 41st shot would have been a belter!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

No, Hamish, I never knew that. Interesting.

Pete, that 41st shot have been me looking at it quizzically, thinking, "How do I switch this off?"...

 

[Pete Askew]

Ah, but a belter of a selfie though!

 

[Dan Cattermole]

Lets have it! I'm in.... Get in!!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Yes, Dan! Now we've got a competition!

@Hamish Gill - clarification of the rules, please. Are we allowed to lighten or darken photos we get from a 1-hr service? This new batch of mine are mostly overexposed. If I were printing them I would make a series of exposure strips before choosing the right one. Seems only fair to all that to be done digitally? Or not?
