My wife always kids me about falling for gals with glasses, but hey, you're my kid sister!

I'm supposed to be at a family reunion tomorrow, so there should be cameras. We'll see what we can come up with (they'll probably get me doing my third-most-favorite pastime...eating!).

Mook-
I bet your photo was taken with a digital camera. Same effect on your photo as on the photo of Kathi Kube in her profile. Digital cameras just cannot get colors (especially fle***ones)accurate. Perhaps someday the colors will be correct. That's why I stay with dependable slide film.

Otherwise, not considering the digital color-shift, LOOKIN' GOOD!!

Hi Big Z,
Pop quiz time, if your game.
Lets see if you, and any one else who wants to play can get the answer.
Look at my profile photo then Jenny's.
One is digital, one isnt.
Which is which?
By the way, there is a cheap and easy way to fix the color shift problem you speak of, it works just as well on digital as on film cameras.
Can anyone guess what it is?
Stay Frosty,
Ed
I will let you in on it at the end of the quiz.

Without messing up Ed's contest, the picture had nice colors when it came into this building. It went through 3 people and this is how it turned out. So much for web-gods and color adjustment. And it was on this end, not Dave Voss's doing. He just posted it for me!

Thanks for the compliment Ed - I really appreciate it! My Ed will too!

Best way I have found is to stay away from cameras, which I will now do!

Hey, Limitedclear, if that was really you, better change your handle to "Restricted" or maybe just "Stop".
