BogusRed's Sketchblog

Random musings from the PaperDemon admin.

Well I'm getting close to finishing up the art gallery section of my sketchblog which means I'll finally be able to include my artwork in my blog posts.

My Dad got me a new digital camera on friday for my birthday. (Thank you Dad!) It's really small; small enough to fit in my pocket, which is nice.  It's a Konica Minolta DiMage X50. I also got a 1GB SD memory card for it so I can store tons of images on it.

I was surprised to find a Super Macro digital subject program built into the camera. There are a lot of digital subject programs built into it but this one I was really happy to get because it allows me to take clear pictures of small objects.

My old digital camera is really clunky. It's big and heavy and the memory card can only hold 5 pictures at a resolution of 3 Megapixels. My new camera with the 1GB memory card can hold about 500 pictures at the same resolution.

The maximum megapixels on my old camera is 3, wheras my new one is at 5 megapixels. 3 is really all anyone needs. If you are looking into buying a digital camera, don't pay too much attention to how many megapixels it has because most cameras have more than 3 and 3 is all you need.

On thursday night, I discovered that the data for all of my websites on my old hosting account was deleted. This put me in tears because it meant I lost all of the data in the database for Zarbon's Masterpiece Theater since it hadn't been moved over to my new hosting account yet at micfo.com

But today, I was relieved to find out that my old host has a backup and will have it restored tomorrow. So hopefully ZMT will be up and running just as good as ever tomorrow.
