Just a reminder that tomorrow is Foto Friday and it's Soggy Doggies! Let's see them wet woofers!! Bath time, pool time, spa time, mud time - whatever -I'm sure they will be very cute!!
The week after this is "Patriotic Pups" for Canada Day and Independence Day in the US.
Now's your chance to throw out some ideas for future Foto Friday themes and I'll post them in the sticky post under the Foto Friday thread so people can plan ahead.

Cute ideas Susan!
How about:
"Belly-Up" - photos of corgis showing their bellies
Corgis in Costumes or other attire
"Corgis on the Go" - photos of our corgis travelling in their car seats, etc.

I like the favorite walk one...it would be neat to see where everyone walks their pooches!
I have a great shot for messy doggies though.....
all such good ideas....how will Deb ever decide...
did we do a kitty one yet? I can't remember...corgis 'n kitties?
what about a playing shot- rough housing and wrestling?

Face it, there is no bad idea, you just can't take a bad photo of a cute Corgi!

Keep 'em coming folks! Great ideas - we already did sleeping dogs and we did dogs and friends, but I don't think with a different species.
Don't worry Amanda - there are lots of weeks in the year, so I'll never run out of weeks, you guys may run out of ideas though!!!

NEVER! A corgi-owned human never runs out of ideas! :LAUGH:

Or out of space in the digital camera. I always keep a spare 1 gig card in my camera bag, one can never have enough photos!

Ah, yes-A woman after me own heart!! I keep a spare gig and a 256MB "just in case" my 512 gets filled too soon.

I have a 512 MB, and two 2 gig cards - that way I can video to my heart's content!!! Plus I have the camera set to a ridiculously high resolution. The photos are 3 ft x 4 ft!!! You can see every hair and whisker - awesome!!

Wow-Can you imagine a 3x4 of Rupert!! I've got a 6.1 megapixel jobbie and I thought it did well!! Try sending that via email, Deb and it would take two days.+ARG+
Jespah
06-21-2007, 07:48 PM
Yup - that could take some time for sure - faster to just have Rupe walk to your place! I've got 8 megapixel - but Jessica beats us, her beloved Canon is 10 megapixels!!!

Yeah, I know...how I covet that camera!! I probably could have gotten one for the price of what that fence cost me! Well worth the investment nevertheless. There goes my imac, too. I'd still rather have Bubba than the mac, though.

It's impossible to email the 10MP pictures, so now I just make disks and have my family circulate them amongst themselves and copy the ones they want. When I get my photo printer (thanks to Deb - the Consumer Reports Goddess), then I can just make prints, which would be much easier! But I am not complaning, because my camera is the #3 love of my life!!!
And David . . . you are right . . . Bubba vs. computer? Bubba wins, paws down!! :CUTE:

When we got Millie 10 yrs ago the first thing did was complete the partial fence our house already had. Expensive, yes, but OMG, I could not imagine having these dogs without it. Anyway, here I am many years later, with not only a camera but an iMac too. All in time.....

Ok, which photo printer? We've never bought one.

I have a Kodak photo printer and I LOVE it. Now.. if I could just find the time to pick back up scrapbooking before Justin heads off to college still without a baby book *sigh*.
This is the printer I have now... love the way it prints.. VERY clear pictures.

Those look like great printers gals.
I have an HP - it's a photosmart and does other document as well. I can use it without the computer and put my camera smartcard into it, use the touch screen and crop and "fix" photos and print them directly! Very cool!!!
This past year my motto seems to have been "Embrace Technology" - my techie learning curve has been long and steep!!!

From the ones I've looked at, most will only do a 4x6 or at the most, a 5x7. Looks like they could print an 8x10 if you wanted that size. Maybe I need to do a little more looking. I'd like to have one that not only does pictures but, also;I need one that can scan and print text...sort of like an "all in one", sans the fax thing.

The one I want can print up to 13 X 19!! So when it comes time to make those Cool 2 Be Corgi posters . . . let me know!! :LAUGH:

David, Canon has several versions(prices) of a combo printer,scanner,fax,copier, and most print photos up to 8x10 size, so one machine does it all. I love their ink and their paper(the most professional looking I think), but I am going to give Kodak paper a try, always liked Kodak film years back when using that type of camera.
