<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JeffsRealm, post: 2524073, member: 81515&quot;]Thank you very much, I did know about Doug&#039;s site from his posting here and have been looking through it. I didn&#039;t know about Warren Etsy&#039;s though thanks will look through it. </p><p><br /></p><p>I purchased Sear&#039;s and Added Howego&#039;s to my wish list for later reading. Thanks for the suggestions.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Oh I have a card reader it is how I have to do it now. I can&#039;t remember off the top of my head what brand my camera is, but it is a pretty good one. The problem with it is something inside in the software broke a while ago so it only saves pictures to its internal memory. I then have to go through the camera interface which is kind of a pain and tell it to move the pictures to the memory card. Wait for that to happen. Then for some stupid reason they put the memory card slot behind the batteries. It does save as JPG though which is good. </p><p><br /></p><p>So my steps, </p><p>I take the pictures. </p><p>Mess with the camera and I have to go through the pictures one at a time and move them to the memory card, there is no mass move or at least I never found one. I used to be able to just save to the memory card but that broke somewhere along the line.</p><p>Then I have to take all the batteries out, get the card out, put it in the computer, I do have a slot for the card built in to my laptop. </p><p>Transfer them off the card to my computer. </p><p>Reassemble camera. Also probably by now the batteries are dead as it uses 3 AAA batteries and the screen being on the whole time while transferring really runs down the juice. </p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s doable, just a pain especially for one or two pictures, this is why I wait until it is pretty much full to transfer. The software used to be really easy, I had a cord that plugged in via USB and I could just open my camera like a USB drive. Copy all the pictures off and was done.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks, these are some great references. I purchased a Sear&#039;s book from yours and [USER=74282]@red_spork[/USER]&#039;s recommendation. I also purchased the first Sayle&#039;s book and the Grant Book. Great places to start and will see how it goes before I order the others. </p><p><br /></p><p>I wonder why more people do not buy books on this today. However, I guess I am pretty unusual as I still read a lot of books usually 3-4 a month. Some fiction, some non fiction, I just enjoy reading them. I have done so since I was young. I also have a small collection of older books. For example I love Dickens, so I have a complete collection of first editions from him. I should clarify American First editions, the British first editions are out of my price range. I am also a Stephen King and buy all his books in Hard Cover, most of them first editions. However the one I have never been able to get in First edition is the Gunslinger. Such a great book as it was his first but so few were ever printed, they rarely ever come up for sale and when they do, they are out of my price range.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
