With most laptops it is quite easy, as the laptop recognises the camera and it will ask if you want to import photos and allow you to select a location.....eg My Pictures.......to store them.

That`s why I suggested starting a thread in the tech help section. If they get the help they need, it`s one more entering the comp.

Re: New Photo Competition 22
I am in favour of anything which encourages people to participate.
In the past I have helped members to put pictures on threads....including giving pictorial information. If I were at home, I would probably do that, but being in welsh Wales means that I am scuppered.....the signal is sporadic, and I do not have my laptop with me.

Re: New Photo Competition 22
So hard to decide what to include, could fill a book or two or more with memories. I'm still nursing a sick husband (though thankfully he's gradually getting better) so haven't had the time to really concentrate - you ladies will understand what I mean.....
Am looking forward to at all the other memories that are entered. Hope there are lots.

Sorry, I put in an 'at' by mistake in the last line of the above.

Oy! A bit of perspective here Madame! When us Blokes is ill, it's not one of your trifling little snivelly colds you Wimmin gets! Gawd no! It's a near death experience that stikes us down! Birddogcat-Man Flu, is just a shade below the black death (mind you we've probably got some of that in there as well) but you don't hear us complaining!

Re: New Photo Competition 22
Trust the male gender to stick together. He has been quite ill though, and had me worried for a while, but the fact that I am tempting him to eat again by tray-feeding him with smoked salmon, prawns and other delicacies instead of the old sausage and mash might have something to do with how long it takes him to get over it....hmm!!! The fact that he has started to get a bit 'picky' with me might hold the clue.

That's fine, it's merely a bijou wanderette, the life blood of a lively forum.

Re: New Photo Competition 22
What a lovely thought, being a wanderette in a bijou. Conjures up a picture worth entering in an Acc'y Web photo competition. Hmm! wonder why there is a red line under the word though when I type it......

Re: New Photo Competition 22
Just looked at the entries so far and though the ones there are great photos, as usual, I thought there would be more 'memory' photos by now. Such an wide-ranging subject should have made it easy to enter, or maybe some of the best memories can't be shared - oops!!!!! Enough said.

Turtle I know what you mean but I wonder if part of the problem is that 'memory' photos are taken by someone else which evoke a memory in us when we see them. And comp rules say that the pic has to be taken by the poster. I must say I am finding it difficult to find something suitable in my back catalogue.
