   Geesh, guess I did repeat.. but when I first hit submit, it popped up with an error, so I did it again. Guess I'm guilty of double talk!
   graylox.. MD House is starting up again this coming week I believe with new episodes, at least it is here in the states.
   Good.. I KNOW about card readers.. smarty! Got one and it's already plugged into the USB port on here, but the card I use is SM (smart media) and I need that printer to take the SM card. To risk repeating myself once again, I'm not getting another camera for a current day card.. by the time I got that (just my luck), IT would be obsolete! Even tho' this camera is a few years old, it ran close to $1,000 after I bought some extras like a telephoto lens and macro lenses, etc. I think I shot my camera wad. I did dig out the manual earlier and the camera already does have a macro mode as well as panorama and bunch of other stuff, but I'm too lazy to read it all.

   Not to change the subject but noticed in an email today that Tiger Direct has a 2GB USB flash drive for only $9.99. Maybe I'd better post that on the 'deals' topic in here. Mighty tempting.

   Hey the front page says that copmom was the last to reply but I don't see the post. Maybe we're taxing the system with this huge thread! :)

   'I need that printer to take the SM card'- why? can't you print from the computer? printing from the card in the printer rather limits your edit options...

   geeks Memorex 4GB TravelDrive 2007 USB 2.0 Flash Drive $19.25 (refurb) free shipping with code MEMX. <g>

   tiger wants 7 bucks to ship that 2 gb, though it is new. that's why I dumped their ads, either shipping or a rebate that usually never shows killed the savings.

   Here is another closeup for you to guess: MD-What Is It? #31

   It's probably too easy! :)

   funky - You're the best! Was it too obvious?

   Eggs in a carton

   For that you get a Tom & Jerry!
   Mouse About The House features Tom & Jerry, with you controlling Jerry in his voyage across the garden and through the house to get to the fridge full of cheese. Help him navigate the obstacles, and avoid Tom, using the items at your disposal in the right order. :)

   Let's try a new one. MD-What Is It? #32. Again, it looks too revealing to me but when crop and/or enlarge more it becomes entirely unrecognizable!

    It's still unrecognizable! DUH!

    MD # 32 Is that the rack or shelf you put the jewel cases in ?

    Maizey........I have this one.......it's.........something blue! Go ahead, tell me I'm wrong.......I dare you.

    Good......"I think it's under 'image', called 'resize'."
    Yes that's how to resize in PSP, but my question was, is there some other way to distort a pic for this game other than resizibg the pic?

    Buckleysmom, you ARE wrong. The blue hue is due to the way the sun was hitting it. It's really gray/black in color. LOL

    Why would you want to distort??? Shrimp ring using twirl distortion tool within Photobucket. Looks gross!

    Maizey.....I just KNEW I'd be wrong.

    We're in hot pursuit of a mouse, Buckley had "something" cornered behind a basket and I figured it was a spider and pulled the basket out. Mr Mouse went running behind the couch, we pulled that out and saw nothing so we came in the kitchen, then Buckley chased it under the love seat. We tipped that back and the last we saw of MM he was behind the frig. Hubby and Buckley headed to Walmart for a mouse trap and they left me here alone to fight for my life with the ferocious beast. The irony is that when I realized Buckley was after something and went to check I was in the dining room of the Tom & Jerry game. This is going to be a "creepy" day....UGH!

    well, we're not actually trying to distort the small image- just throw off the impression of scale- the images with the new cam I've just been cropping, not enlarging.

    with that little image data available, I dunno. enlarge the entire image, then crop? the 1 and 1.3 mp images, I was having a hard time myself.

    want a wacky thought?

    the Yukai SoccerCam 2MP cameras are like 20 bucks, 30 with shipping, focus down to 10" in macro mode and also works as a webcam or videocam. look funny, built by mustek, and they work. wouldn't mind having one myself.

    geeks 19.50
    evertek 17.00
    starsurplus 19.95

    32 meg internal memory, probably 25-30 shots, and takes a sd/mmc card if you want.

    goodgotd, no and no. This object is setting outside in the snow.

    Very, very common. Between my husband and I we have 8 that we use regularly and more that are only used occasionally. The one on the picture is no longer used at all.

    buckleysmom.. rodents can be VERY destructive. We thought our refrig. died several months ago. A guy at Lowe's told me to unplug and replug to see if that worked. Well that meant pulling the frig. away from the wall to unplug. Guess what, the electric cord had been chewed! The copper wire was showing! Lucky we didn't have a fire, and also surprised the mouse/rat didn't get fried! Also lucky my friends hubby is an electrician, he came right up and replaced it. That's another reason we like having all these stray kitties here now!

    goodgotd.. a mustek was the very first digital camera I had. Took horrible pix indoors even with flash, imagine kids with bright white faces and everything else super dark. Finally gave it to grandson when I got the one I have now. And thanks for that link to starsurplus! They have the HP 3310 printer my sister has that DOES scan negatives!! Only thing it doesn't do is support my camera's smart card, but I can still do my camera stuff via the computer and they even have the 128 mg smart card I need for $59.

    maizey, for some reason when you said you and hubby use 8 regularly, toothpick came to mind! LOL Is it some sort of a cup holder??

    Copmom......yes I know those dirty little rascals can be destructive. Times like these I wish we still had a cat. Buckley was trying his best but he just couldn't move fast enough and naturally couldn't get into some of the spots a cat could squeeze through. At this point we have no idea where the varmint is, but traps are now baited and ready. YUK! I hates meeses to pieces.

    I thought #32 looked like s shovel too, but the little hole made me say naaaaa. I haven't a clue, hec, even the blue was wrong lol

    Hi everyone. I was gone for awhile. Sorry I left you hanging on #32. I thought this one looked obvious. Guess I was wrong.

    Buckleysmom, sorry to hear about your mouse problem. There were a few here when I first moved in. You should have seen it! One time my two cats & two dogs were chasing a mouse throughout the house. Things got knocked over and a small glass lamp that was on top of the entertainment center smashed to the floor when Kirby jumped up following the mouse who was then clinging to a window screen in fear. It the jumped to the floor and ran to the kitchen with all four in hot pursuit. It went under the fridge. So I pulled the fridge out and it must have got rolled around between the drip pan and the floor because it seemed disoriented and the cats got a hold of it. They just played with it. But as soon as they let it go, Weezer chomped it up. Yuck! Found that the mice were getting in through some vents and small openings that lead to a crawlspace under a portion of the house. I stuffed pieces of steel wool into all the openings and haven't had any in the nine years since then. Mice can't chew through steel wool.

    copmom, are you going to get that printer/scanner from Starsurplus? You seemed excited about it.

    _____________________________________________
    OK, back to #32:
    It's not a toothpick
    It's black
    It's about 26" across
    My hubby & I use four on a regular basis, almost daily. But, right now he uses his 4 more than I use my 4.
    It is outside
    The one pictured is old, worn and no longer in use.
    New hint: It is round.
