2007 Family Camp Photo Story

Greetings!

On Saturday evening of the 2007 Loveridge Family Camp, RevaBeth showed a delightful slide show containing many historic photos of our family. Since it is getting more and more difficult to find and set up a slide projector, I suggested that I scan her slides into digital photos and put together a slide show that can be seen on any (Windows, at least) computer. I’m calling that a Photo Story since slides are no longer involved and since that is the software I used (Microsoft PhotoStory 3).

To distribute this Photo Story to all in the family who are interested, I have made a CD for it since at 36 MB it is larger than most email systems will allow. Also on that CD is a folder with the scanned slides (in JPG format), cropped and color corrected. There is also a folder of scanned slides and pictures we had around our house that seemed to fit in with the theme and some recent photos of this year’s family camp.

The Photo Story is a Windows Media Video (wmv) file so it should run on any Windows based computer with standard software including Windows Media Player. In fact, after inserting the CD, your computer will probably ask if you want to do just that. Pressing F11 will give you a full screen view of the video. You can pause, backup, and jump forward with the Player using the controls at the bottom of the screen.

No attempt has been made to represent every family or family member equally or not equally. We worked with the pictures we had. We have attempted to use accurate names and dates but no guarantee is stated or implied. Corrections and additional photos will be gratefully accepted for inclusion in the next edition. Call or email me with questions or suggestions.

Call or email me if you'd like a copy of this CD. A donation of $3 to offset some of the costs would make it a little easier on me but certainly isn't necessary. In addition, the Photo Story and the individual photos are available on Photobucket.com at the following links:
