Well that was fun.

If anyone saw the Hello Lover post, just ignore it.  I just found out I can post to my blog without ever going to my blog.  During the setup, it pulled the first photo from my pile, I typed the first thing that I thought when I saw BN’s beautiful face and voila, a post popped up.

WTH, right?

I am so fed up with Elements 9.0’s organizer that I almost cried.  Yup.  It’s that frustrating.  Makes my computer very slow.  Shuts down for no reason.  And on and on.  I looked to see if there were any issues and there were plenty. Most folks just said they loved the editing part of E9.0 but just ignored the Organizer portion.

Problem is I need an organizer.  I loved Bridge but I have that on my Mac and I can’t use it on my Windows.  So, I decided to use Windows Live Photo Gallery.  After looking at it, it does all the same stuff as the Elements Organizer and I think, more.  But most importantly, I can find my way around it.  It doesn’t shut down in the middle of a job and it doesn’t make me cry.  Big bonus.

In the process of getting all excited about no longer spending my photo time crying, I saw that it will be super easy to post pics to Facebook for my family, upload videos for my son on his YouTube account, and blog.  In fact, I’m blogging right now from my Windows Live Writer.  Love that.

At least, I do right now.  All this technology is giving me a headache and making me want to ball up in the fetal position for about three days.

Get ready for the wonder of it all.
