This photo isn’t only about the two, young, stylishly dressed women. I mean it was at the time … .

A few things:

About image quality. I think my scanner is reaching the end of its life. I get scan lines that never appeared before, and they take a certain amount of filtering to reduce, but that also makes the images less distinct. Plus, we’re scanning old (ancient?) photos that weren’t necessarily all that great at the time. And, many were developed on matte (read: pebbly) paper that presents its own scan issues.

If you have a smallish monitor and have your resolution set at 800 x 600, then the small images are huge and the larger images are pointless to click on. Also, the format of the page changes so that all the recent entry links sit at the bottom of the page. If your resolution is set high, as mine is, or Danís ( running an impossibly small 1900 x 1200), then the present format works fine.
Obviously I canít accommodate everyone, but viewing the blog at the Schriebers has prompted me to once again reduce the size of the small, main page images. If this change is not good, let me know. Iím a crowd pleaser, and will follow majority opinion.

For what itís worth, I buy inksell inks from inksell.com. They are a third the cost of Epson inks and almost never clog. For color photos they take longer to dry, but so what.

  2. This is so much fun, don’t you think? Michael, you owe it to us to show just how big your Afro got. So, pebbles and all, put all those pics you stole from me on the blog, and let the nostalgia role!!!!

  4. I am concerned by the small number of folks, given the hint under the photo and in the title , who spotted Matthew’s BMW. Dan, I understand, all others hang your heads in shame.

    P.S. Matthew, not so taken by the two fetchees, spotted it instantly.
