Meet The Latest Flickr User!

I'm on Flickr!!!!

I've been going onto Flickr.com for weeks now, looking at other people's photographs, lamenting my inability to post photos on the Internet site owing to the fact that I don't have a digital camera. Then a friend of mine from Flickr told me you could get pictures developed on a compact disc even if the camera is disposable. So I took a whole set of pictures with a disposable outdoor camera - mostly of my car, other people's antique cars (like at the local Independence Day parade), and interesting streetscapes - and got a CD made of them. I transferred them to my PC, and the rest is history. :-) I've posted nine of the 27 exposures from my camera already; the other two-thirds are coming later. (Flickr has limits on how many pictures you can upload at a time.)

I never thought I'd be computer-savvy enough to figure out how to post personal pictures on the Web, but I did it. It was so easy for me. Not so for my cousin, who took all the pictures at my maternal grandmother's ninetieth birthday party with a digital camera and lost them trying to post them on his computer. :-O
