Getting Photos Online with Shutterfly

Shutterfly is an online photo service that lets you store, share, and print your digital snapshots. Shutterfly gives you three ways to upload pictures. You can transfer photos one-by-one using your Web browser. With the help of a browser plug-in, known as the Picture Upload Assistant, you can upload several photos at once. Shutterfly also provides a standalone utility program called Shutterfly Express, which you can use to perform minor edits and then upload photos with a few clicks.


Note: At this writing, Shutterfly was testing out a new programcurrently saddled with the ungainly name “Shutterfly Photo Organization Client”that will eventually replace Shutterfly Express. The new program will be a full-fledged, PC-based image editor and photo organizer.

To get started, go to www.shutterfly.com and sign up for a free account. Read more »

Digital SLR: Image Capture Options

Many advanced compact cameras support raw image capture, but few are optimized for it All digital SLRs support raw, and many are capable of recording images in raw and JPEG at the same time. Which format is best?

Raw Capture

For pure image quality, you can’t beat raw. The raw format is simply a recording of the light values as seen by each pixel when the image is captured on the camera sensor. There are no modifications made to the data, and it’s stored in the full bit depth supported by the camera (typically 12 bits) for the maximum color information.

Taking Pictures in Minnesota Comes with a Price

Getting nice photos in Minnesota don’t come cheap. Since my car has been broken four months ago, I’ve had to borrow my brother’s vehicle to get there. It’s kind of bad to second my brother’s sake, not that he complained about it actually.

Finding The Right Information about Webhosting is Crucial

I consider myself not very good at using internet, at least not until now. I always ensure myself to always learn everyday. I usually visit webhostingrating to get many useful and insightful information about webhosting and things related. For instance, about couple of months ago, I learned that whichever webhost we choose, we should select one with has cPanel features. Thus, I read some cPanel Tutorials from webhostingrating.com and learn about many basic as well as advance tutorials.

Digital SLR: Choosing ISO Settings

If you’re used to shooting with a compact digital camera, you’ve probably learned to stay away from anything but the lowest ISO settings, such as 100 or 200, because of noise problems associated with more light-sensitive ratings of 400 or higher.

Luckily, digital SLRs are much better in this regard, and images shot at ISO settings of 400 and as high as 1600 are very usable. Why would you want to use these higher settings? There are two main reasons. The first is to give you more exposure options in low-light conditions, and the second is for creative techniques.

Organizing Photos with EasyShare

Sooner or later, you’ll want to rearrange the photos in your online albums. Perhaps you’re creating a slideshow for friends to see, or maybe you’re collecting otter photos for a gift calendar (it happens). You simply drag an album’s photos to put them in the order you want and EasyShare uses this new arrangement for things like slideshows and photobooks.


Tip: To create a new album, you can do it when you first upload the photos, as described in the previous section. Or, to create a new album from photos already in EasyShare, make copies of the photos and then create a new album to hold them .
