You would not think of it, but "Always a Quest" can be purchased from Walmart on-line store at the same price as Amazon. Further, if you purchase two or more copies, there is no shipping charge. {this is the same B/W as available previously.

Also, a new ebook version is available with all pictures in full color. It requires you obtain first KINDLE APP to read this color version. Added color sure is nice

Hi Bob,
I use a Startech USB 3.0 to Dual 2.5/3.5 SATA HDD Dock with UASP.  It works very well.
Learn more at https://www.amazon.com/StarTech-com-Docking-Station-3-5-Inch-SDOCK2U33/dp/B00KILQTS8
It doesn't accept IDE Drives.  There is an adapter at

I haven't used it.

I found a less expensive solution at https://www.amazon.com/SISUN-Docking-Station-Reader-Black/dp/B009F7TXMK
I have no experience with this product.

Hello All,
When I received from Alan Raul and Bob Styerwalt the photos of our recent BBQ , I wanted to make them available on the SLO Bytes web site as quickly and simply as possible.  I could have uploaded the batches as .zip files but dimly remembered that I had previously come across a way to give links to each individual file without creating a photo index.  Sadly, I had forgotten how to do that.

When I finally rediscovered how to accomplish that, I created a tutorial to remind me and others how to do this with an .htaccress file.
My tutorial is available from my web site at http://www.fullbean.com/tutorials/listfiles.html.

Please note that this method only offers links to the individual images.  It does not provide thumbnails.

Before I figured this out, I used Adobe Photoshop Elements 15 to create the two video slide shows.
As stated in an earlier post, you may view them at www.slobytes.org/photos/2018bbq

Hello All,
Here are my notes from the SLO Bytes Photo Group meeting of 07/08/18

TOPIC: Edit Free for All

The session opened with Ralph Sutter calling attention to the Links Page; http://www.slobytes.org/digital/links.html. He then opened the page, 27 Photos You Won't Believe - Or At Least You Shoudn't ; https://www.topixoffbeat.com/slideshow/18723

There, we saw both final images and the tricks employed to achieve them. This served as an appropriate introduction to today's topic.

Prior to the meeting, members downloaded sample inages from www.slobytes.org/digital/for-edit and made whatever changes they deemed appropriate.

At the meeting, we compared the results. Some of us applied color correction or cropped the images. Others added objects to them not seen in the originals.

The session prompted a discussion of different editing programs and techniques. Encouraged, we agreed to repeat the format in the near future.

Our next meeting will take place on Sunday, August 12th at 2:00pm.  The topic is Symbols.  Each member is invited to share images of objects that evoke responses that take the viewer beyond the literal.
