    Wordpress Tips

    This website was created using Wordpress, an open source web publishing application. The page template I started with is Revolutiontheme. Here are some tips on how I set up this website, and dealt with specific issues relating to the Revolutiontheme template.

    Taking Pictures Of Fireworks

    Taking digital photos of fireworks can be a bit tricky. By using a few basic rules however you should be able to get at least a few good shots that will impress your friends and family, even if your a novice photographer.

    Free Digital Photo Processing Software

    There are many great digital photo processing software packages available, many free but limited or only trial ware, others full feature but expensive with a never ending need to buy upgrades. There’s help however, Gimp.

    Digital Camera Aspect Ratio and Photo Print Size

    Most consumer grade digital cameras have photo aspect ratios (width to height) which work great for displaying photos on computer screens, but not so great for printing photos on the deeply ingrained 6″ x 4″ or 7″ x 5″ photo sizes. A few precautions while taking your photos will assure you don’t end up with cut off heads and other annoyances.

    Organizing Your Digital Photos

    Digital cameras and computers are becoming household items. As you accumulate digital photos and store them on your computer, an organized approach based on the dated folders with supplemental descriptions should be used, independent of whatever photo management software you use. This will make it easier for archiving and will also allow you to switch photo management software in the future.

    Optimal Digital Camera Resolution Settings

    Digital cameras allow photos to be taken at very high resolutions and various photo quality settings. Understanding what resolution you really need and the implications of quality settings will avoid having to manage unnecessarily large files and assure your photos are of printing quality on par with film based cameras.
