This is actually pretty cool. I went to Scrapblog and took the tutorial and found it very accessible. I don't have a lot of experience with picture editing other than a brief fling with PictureIt, which I don't think even exists anymore. I also made a lot of digital greeting cards with Hallmark software so I do understand the basics of photo manipulation, cropping, cut-outs, etc. This web-based (which is terrific) program was very simple to use. You do have to register if you want to save your pictures like the one I made of Sam. The whole thing took me about 5 minutes to make but about 10 minutes of registering and accessing my Flickr account to add to this blog. I have great respect for anyone who has the fortitude and determination to keep a scrapbook of any kind (digital or not) of their loved ones. I still have unopened film cans from when my son was 5 years old (he'll be 20 in Nov.)! Who has time to do all this when your kids are young and the memory is fresh in your mind? By the time you DO have the free moments to work on it, who can remember where and when the heck that photo was taken....and who IS that kid, anyway? I'll stick with the photo memory book in the old noggin. No one else can see it but I have immediate access to sweet pictures of my precious baby anytime I want them. It's worked for me so far and I'm not THAT old yet. It's a good thing I can still recall the time.... waittaminute, what was I talking about again?? Dang it.
