    You know i'll be in Al, I might feel a bit dirty cheating on my Canon but I think it will be ok.

    Really cool idea to show the community we have.

    Well, how about a trip to Oregon. I'll bite, but I have no previous skills.

    That's the beauty of it Steve! Not everyone needs to be a pro, in fact it might give better results to see just a wide range of photos from different people's points of view!

    A fun idea, Al.
    One thing that comes to mind is people who don't have cameras and take pics with your loaner, they might not have any real way to process the images. Cards are pretty cheap now so if they want to mail a card with their images to one of us we could process them and get them back to the photographer so they could post them. We could designate "developers" for each region to cut down on mailing costs.
    I know most computers come with some sort of photo program, but non photographers may just not want to bother with the downloading etc. This could be a developing service.

    Stan thats very doable if needed. This particular camera works on the old style 2 gb SD card. These are very inexpensive on ebay. I have a bunch of them. I think theres a firmware upgrade that came out that lets you use the high capacity sdhc cards but I havent run it on the camera yet....I may before we send it out.

    Another option is a brief tutorial on "gimp" . Because these images are in the range of 5-6 mp ..you really just to resize them and save..I havent tried yet but the online photo resizers will probably work too...so we have alot of options depending on the personal preferences of the user.

    Are you going to send it to Nicholson? For some reason I always think of him when pictures are mentioned.

    LOL. I get that one.. Hmmm Thats a tough one. Of course I couldn't force any one to participate but it would be nice to see as many of NADA's top brass(official and unofficial) involved in this SimplyDiscus Project.....of course no pressure at all.
