digitize all the family photos

and posted them on facebook, some of the family moaned because they don’t have copies, well they have them now, they can save them from facebook :-D

the family photo’s which they received. :-)

and letters from elementary school, middle school crushes, etc…

but I haven’t scanned photos. I wish I didn’t have to work, and I could have a spot constantly set up for this… make it my job (work at home) or something. I have scanned some old slides, which means I actually have baby pictures on my computer.

For christmas, I want to make each of my brothers a sort of photo album of them as children. I’ve thought about this for a couple of years, now, but I haven’t gotten to it.

Neal has been married over a year, and a doubt that Lindsay has seen more than a handful of young photos of him. Tristan has a serious girlfriend that could end up his wife, and Skylar is about to start college in a year. If I can make something that kind of highlights their years before leaving home, It would be awsome!

printed off 4 copies for each of my siblings.

to remind myself what I want to do.

This one is linked to organise my office, because I have several boxes of family photo’s which I ‘d like to move from my office, but I don’t want to put them up into the attic until they’re scanned in case it becomes out of sight out of mind.

Anyhow, I’m keeping this goal in mind, and now I’ve completed scanning in photo’s for my ex I’ll be able to start on this one.
But I’m going to give myself a break from scanning, i’ll start on this goal in the new year!

a huge task, I came across them the other day, digging out my school picture which is my avatar at the moment! There are a lot of photo’s, a lot of them!!

I want to scan them all in though so I can send them to each of my siblings, I believe each of us has a right to all of them, so this way everyone gets them all.

last week I cried quite a lot for my mum, it’s hard not having a mum.

I need some photographer who will give me bulk discount on digitalising my old photos.
My music scores are still in my drawer waiting to be scanned.

Most of our old pictures were from the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s. Nobody knew about not using tape, or using acid free paper, or anything like that, so a lot of them were in pretty sorry shape. Luckily, I mastered Photoshop pretty quickly…It was a great way to preserve the images for a lot longer than the photos would have lasted. Not to mention, it makes a great and cheap gift for your family once you burn them onto a cd or dvd.

there are so much photos and my digializing by manually scanning them gave results that are not comparable with the effort and time. i think i will rather invest some money in it then time.

i started to digitize all music scores i played, with my comments and fingering on them so i want to store them. well not all i played but only those i played during my study of organ. it is fun, also. (and i stayed too much staring to screen whole day long.)
