{also, of the photo 'names' at the photo
intro...}
Each opened folder opens
its own folder window, folder
window.
Folder Window,
To open a folder means to open that folder's window.
This is done either by clicking on the 'Computer'
["My Computer"] icon on your
Desktop, or by clicking on the 'Windows
Explorer' icon. Both of these utility
programs open a folder window
where you can explore all the 'internal'
folders & files in your
computer system storage areas, such as hard drives,
flash drives, floppy drives, CD/DVD drives, etc. Once a
folder window is open, you can navigate to
open any folder in order to look at its contents of filenames on
your system. It is in these 'folder windows'
that you do stuff, like copy, paste filenames
& folder names in to & out
of,
from, etc. In
many of the steps, given in this doc, you are told to open a
pair,
or more, of folder windows, so you can do some kind of
'work' amongst them all, or, sometimes, the work is all done
just within a single folder, such as at times with
Folder #05.
(see:
Folders Pair)
["Internet Explorer" --& other such
Internet browsers-- for the most part,
explores places 'external', outside of
your computer system, such as web pages from
websites on the
Internet, from a 'web address'
you type in the 'address bar', or, click
on a 'link' within a document.]
In the first 4 folders, all you are doing is copying/or
moving photos around, & re-Naming the filenames
only, NO processing of the photos yet ...
The 1st folder,
Camera Temp Folder #01, is in Camera storage; all other folders are
in Laptop hard drive D:.
Note #04:
Note #04
In the following 'STEPS'
this, the 'light-yellow'
background color & '18 point font' part
is the 'brief' step that is copied to
the
Total Steps
section. BUT, First, copy that
statement to the
Total Steps,
then, second, color the background, &
make text larger, so as to easily tell at a glance what is the
next step in this process. If you do
the opposite first, you must
then do as in #(12),
in order to undo the big mistakes that
this causes, which by itself, is impossible
to UnDo in EW4
[FrontPage2003,
automatically undid this kind of thing,
but NOT using it anymore, since the code it
produces is far too old.].
So far,
Folder #01,
Folder #02,
Folder #03,
were all alike; they all held only the 79
original photos,
Photo #1.
All done in 8 steps.
Folder #04
only holds the next few, 1 to 3, photos that I will be
first working on, when they
are moved, only one photo at a time, to the MAIN Working Temp
Folder #05.
Folder #02,
&
Folder #06,
&
Folder #09,
are similar, in that they only hold the original photos, NO
processed photos.
Folder #07, also holds
these original photos, plus all the processed photos too. ??
Original photos only, renamed in
Folder #05,
will be moved/copied to (& are added
to, along with the 79 original photos, already here from steps
STEP #010,
&
STEP #011.)
Folder #06, &
moved/copied to subfolder
Folder #09,
then they will be deleted from
Folder #05.
All started with step
STEP #022
in
Folder #05.
Processed photos, worked on & done, in
Folder #05,
will be copied to
Folder #07. After
each batch of photo sets are processed,
moved from
Folder #03, to
Folder #04,

When

Some Folder windows will open automatically,
such as the Camera Temp
Folder #01,
or, a CD/DVD disc when you put it into the laptop
CD/DVD player/writer, IF
your computer is set up to auto-read/open
such devices. If not, you must navigate to/open those
folder windows by hand manually, such as at
STEP #007, &
STEP
#008.
Then, when you remove the CD/DVD, or turn camera
off,
those folder windows close down automatically.

when you are doing some --copy/move/paste/(delete) file names--
you are always working with, at least, 2 folders
at a time... a pair of folders.
These kinds of folders are always in pairs,
come in, are used in pairs; you need 2 opened
folders
windows to complete
the task at hand, that is, you open the 1st
folder window, the 'from' one, & then
you open the 2nd folder window, the 'to'
one; then you do something --copy/move/paste/(delete) file names--
out of the
'from' 1st folder

(Photo #1)
The ORIGINAL raw default
Sony
Camera photo filename: -- "DSC02019.jpg"
= 2,260 KB =
Photo #1.
The 1st original camera
photo,
Photo #1, = "DSC02019.jpg".
Original File Name
Original File Name
"DSC02097.jpg" =
the 'original raw
default Sony Camera photo filename' of
last picture taken at the Rock Gala
Party... Next picture taken = "??"
[Does this mean I've taken over 2000 pictures with this
Sony Camera so
far, since I've bought it new a few years ago? ?? I don't
know, yet.]
File
Names (filenames) similar to "DSC02097.jpg" = 'original raw default
Sony Camera photo filename' =
Photo #1, of picture
taken, in whatever position the
camera was in --horizontal, or, vertical.
Vertical --which produces a 'sideways' photo which must be flipped to the right --"Rotate Right" to be viewed correctly in proper position as to when, how,
that picture was taken... If I'm taking a tall, vertical photo, a portrait
picture, then I'm holding, turning the
camera to the right, rotating camera to the right, so as to take a picture as close
as possible to the subject matter, which then fills the whole camera viewer better
with less "white space", whatever... Therefore, when viewing the raw
unprocessed photo, it, the
contents of photo, is on its side, is 'laying down', 'to, on the left-hand side', or, 'on the bottom side' of the photo, so it must "flip to right"
for the person to be 'standing up-right' in the photo, for the photo to be in
proper viewing position, in which case, this can only be done in an
external photo
editor program. When re-saving that photo, the
size of the picture changes, depending on the
options chosen when saving the picture... So, I guess, copy & rename three (3) times, the original photo filename according to
who the person is in the photo, then copy/load that file name into a photo editor
to edit the photo. Most of the photos were taken in a vertical position, so must rotate them to the right, which is the same thing as turning them
right-side up with regards to the content in the photo.
You are only 'working' with, some how, in some manner,
in the processing of the only 1 photo in the
MAIN Working
Temp
Folder
#05, folder window. Never 'work' in any of the other folders;
they are only 'holding' folders, folders to only
copy/move/paste/delete photos in to/out
of, etc.
These kinds of camera photo filenames are always similar to "DSC02019.jpg",
& each picture taken increases the 'number part'
of the filename by 1 digit. (These photos are always
moved from Camera Temp
Folder #01,
& moved to, stored in the All
Permanent Original Archive
Folder #02,
& then copied to Temp
Folder #03,
then moved to the Pre-Processed Temp
Folder #04,
as described at
Folder #04. Then, only 1 photo at a time, is
moved from
Folder #04,
to
Folder #05,
to begin the renaming, & also, later on, the processing
of all the photos...)
(This =
Photo #1,
such as "DSC02019.jpg".) [This
first camera photo
Photo #1 = "DSC02019.jpg"]
The original photo,
Photo #1,
--as taken live at scene of the picture setting at the
Rock Gala Party by me in most cases. The photo file
name, --as given to
the photo by the camera, as photo is named
& saved in the camera storage area--, that name
itself is meaningless, so,
renaming each of the 79 photo filenames 3 different
times, in 3 different ways, & showing the progression,
the transformation, the renaming, from the original name
Photo #1
"DSC02019.jpg", to the final "human meaningful
photo-descriptive" filename
Photo #4 . (or is it
photo#5 ??)
Never edit this original
Photo #1:
ONLY COPY & Paste a copy
of it else where to use: because if you mess up, you have
LOST everything original!
(Don't say you won't mess up, because no one
is perfect!)
(This
Photo #1
is to be transformed into the next
3 photos renamed:
Photo #2,
Photo #3,
Photo #4,)
==========================================================
{these next parts needs to be re-work,
re-worded, so as to be true...}
Copy this Photo
#1, & the next one =
Photo #2, into
the Holding
Temp of 1 Person
Processed
Folder #07,
(when all done, then move all of the photos in
Folder #07,
& paste them to the "Couple's
Personal Folder" subfolder
Folder #09,
called "_Archive_Original_Photo_File_Names"),
& only work on a 'copy' of "Photo
#4" [?? should this not be photo #1,
here? ??], starting with the 1st photo
in
Folder #04.,
which is first moved to
Folder
#05, then start working on that photo
in transforming it, renaming that photo
Photo #1, into
the 3 other different file names.
{Never use this photo --Photo
#1-- to edit it; ONLY use
Photo #4,
but even then, ONLY first make a copy
of
Photo #4,
& only use the 'copy' of
Photo #4, which is also a
copy of this original, in order to edit it. The final
working 'copied/pasted' file name = "? ??".
(which is Photo #5, ?? ??}
{these next parts needs to be re-work,
re-worded, so as to be true...}
{also, the 'STEP' parts must correspond to the
'real' steps listed else where in this doc.}
{figure out how to do this; so far I am up
to
STEP #024, but I'm
stumped again, as to what to do next?}
{I want to integrate the folder steps with the
photo steps
..., & vice versa;
I want to integrate the photo steps with the
folder steps...}
{Do I actually need to physically move each of the 'Photo' parts around
some, re-move them from where they are at now, & move them
into the 'Folder' sections,
where they seem to be wanting to be? ?? ?? ??}
Yes, I guess; so far, I've moved
Photo #1
section to area right after
Folder #01...

photos that will be worked on next, probably this folder will hold only
1, or 2, or 3 photos at the most at any one time; then only 1 photo at a time will be moved from
here to
Folder #05.
This folder will become empty many times as I process the many

This is a [Pre-Processed Temp]
Folder #04.
Folder #04: "_Misc_04_ORIGINAL_holding_all_of_same_person"

This Pre-Processed Temp Folder #04 is where all pictures of same
couple, --persons are in, as in
the order of viewing each photo that I come to,
in the original file name list in the temp folder
Folder #03.
Move
1st picture filename in
Folder #03, &
Paste it in
this Folder #04; if
next photo is of the same person, move/paste
that
photo file here also; repeat; but if the next photo is of
different person,
stop moving photos. This
(A) part ?? ??
of Folder #04
include the following Steps:
STEP #013
-
STEP #016.
??
After above steps are done, Now, start working in the next working
Folder #05 by move the first photo in
Folder #04, &
paste
it to
Folder #05, and work on only 1
original photo at a time; when done with that photo, move all
those resulted finished processed photos from Folder #04,
& paste them in
Folder #07.
Then move
the next file in
Folder #04, & paste
it in
Folder #05, and start doing the whole processing
all over again -until finished... When
this Folder #04 is empty, move all photos in
Folder #07, &
paste them in the main folder of "Couple's Personal Folder", which is
Folder #08.
After that is all done,
Then start move photos again from temp
Folder #03, &
paste
them in this folder
Folder #04, and start all over again processing the new batch of
photos. Continue the above cycle until all photos in
Folder #03
is processed, & it is empty of photos. Meaning all
79 original photos have been finally
processed; and now ready to send each
Couple's Personal Folder
with their photos to Tracy. Probably will need to ZIP them
--each of the
Folder #08 -- somehow...
before sending, emailing them all to Tracy.

1st photo picture filename
Photo #1
in Temp
Folder #03,
folder window, "_Misc_03_...",
to open/view that photo in
IrfanView, which automatically opens up
showing that photo, since that is my default picture viewer. I use
it because it is a small program which opens
up very fast when you are using it.
IrfanView is only used here to
open/close, to see who is
in the photo working on. (Later on, that program will be
used to process the photos in some way.)
Double-click
on 1st

HOW DONE: Note
'who' the
person(s) are, that is, in the photo, & write,
type their names down in a
Notepad
text doc file, to use as reference (later on), as you go through this
process. I press 'Ctrl-Alt-1' to open
my 'Spelling' notes text file in
Notepad., & use the top part of
that file to type my current notes into, then when finally done
with that part, copy/paste those current notes
back into this
document somewhere, at bottom of document, as future reference. [Open
the Notepad program, &
type the names; then save the text file by
choosing 'Save As...' from the 'File'
menu. Save the file under an easily remembered filename,
such as 'Saved_Notes'
onto your Desktop for easy finding of that
file later on. For now, keep that
Notepad
text file
open, as you continue to type more
names into that doc file.] Close
IrfanView down.

[The 'Next' photo in that folder window
list
automatically becomes the (next) '1st'
photo (all over again) in Temp
Folder #03,
"_Misc_03_...",
since when you move a file, that automatically
deletes that file from the folder window, &
puts it some place else, such as copy to Folder #04,

But: If the
'next' photo is of a different

moving photos to Folder #04,
folder window, "_Misc_04_...". Stop, and take a short break.
[Folder #04
is partly Done, at this point in time, out of many future
times, as I go through each set of photos!]
But,
if the 'next' photo is
of a
different
person, STOP.
But,
if the 'next' photo
is of a
different
person, STOP.
Now, goto step,
STEP #022.
There is some introductory information given
between here,
STEP #021, & there,
STEP #022.
This part of the process is done, but will be repeated, if needed,
if there are
still photos left in Folder #04. Now, you have to
move just
1
photo only from Folder #04, &
paste it into
Folder #05, in order to begin processing it in
some way. This, the first set of ways, is to
ReName all the original file names into their
3
renamed filenames, & then to move them into their correct folders.
The second set of ways, is to Process
these 79 original filenames in some manner as
stated later on in this document. Now on to the next section.
Go to the next part...
Then do this: Now, go to
Folder #05, & start the
next set of steps... What comes next? ??
The next part actually begins the first Re-Naming of
the original photo file name into the 4 other different filenames... And where to copy each photo to what
folder... Make a simple step for each part of the process...
After the first part of
Folder #05, is done, then
come back to this folder Folder #04, again, & begin anew with the next
set of photos... Repeat... You see, some folders will have
more then one set of steps to do in this total
framework, frameset, of this process... which will be repeated under certain circumstances... many times... until a certain process is
complete, then go to the next set of steps, etc.
Then...

(5) Fifth Folder: The main processing
folder; MAIN working folder where all the hard work is done in, when
renaming all original photos in the 3 different ways, & when
processing the photos into a finished product, of a few processed photos.
IN
None of the other folders do I do any 'work' in, ONLY
work in this
Folder #05
one. All the other folders are for holding photos until a certain
process is done, then moving them, or achieving them. I have
only 2 permanent folders + all the 'Folder #08' ones;
All the other folders are Temp ones, which will all be
empty when finally all done.
Since there is only 1 photo Photo #1,
at a time that is moved into this folder, that photo is the
one that is being worked on, is the photo that is being talked about,
is the photo that is being referenced to. BUT, since you are renaming that
photo Photo #1, into 3 other different file names, all INside
of this folder, there WILL be more photos created, made, in this folder as a
result. And each newly created renamed file name will also be moved to
other folders after they are created.
This is a [MAIN
Working
Temp]
Folder #05.
Folder #05: "_Misc_05_Processing_holding_Working_On_a_Pic"
_Misc_05_Processing_holding_Working_On_a_Pic
In this folder, MAIN Working Temp
Folder #05, I'm
working on just one
(1) original photo at a time; the original
photo file is moved from
Folder #04,
& pasted in this folder,
Folder #05.
You are only 'working' with, some how, in some manner,
in the processing of the only 1 photo in the
MAIN Working
Temp
Folder
#05. Never 'work' in any of the other folders;
they are only 'holding' folders, folders to only
copy/move/paste/delete photos in to/out
of, etc.
(Please do not do this:
do NOT work in the person's
Couple's Personal Folder, such as in
the: "001_Pictures-Cathy"
folder window... It will become very confusing, the more photos there are in the folder.)
After I have all the photos {4 or
6} I want from that
original photo done {& tested each photo in
IrfanView to see if correct, & in web browsers also}, then
move them to the below folder
Folder #07 for storage &
safe-keeping until this part of the process is done on this set of photos; when
each batch of photos is done, then move them all
from
Folder #07 to the
subfolder
Folder #09,
in
Folder #08, which is
in the
Couple's Personal Folder, ready to send to Tracy... Then
copy the next original photo {the 2nd renamed original file name,
etc.} & start all over again doing the above procedures, over & over
until done... Do this until all 79 original photos
79 Photos are
processed...
There was 80 photos, but first one was off-centered, so I deleted it; some of the other photos will also probably be deleted in time as I view them;
I have not viewed them all yet; I will view each one in order as I come to them
in the
Folder #03 listing, to work on that photo...
--79 Photos to work with--

MAIN Working Temp
Folder #05,
"_Misc_05_...",
folder window.
Leave
Folder #05,
folder window,
"_Misc_05_...",
open.
At this very moment in time, at this point
in the process, since the
Folder #05,
folder window, "_Misc_05_...", is open,
this means that you are already inside of
the MAIN Working Temp
Folder #05,
all ready to be doing some 'work', which is the re-Naming
of that one photo in this folder. Now, you are actually in,
& working in,
Folder #05,
"_Misc_05_...", folder window. And, now,
there is only 1 photo, a
Photo #1,
in this folder window. Only 1 photo is moved
to this folder, at any one time in this process. When
you are all done in renaming that photo into the 3 different
ways, into the 3 newly created renamed filenames, you will
have a total of four (4) filenames in this folder, which
means you are now done in this part of the process. Now, you just
need to copy/move them to their correct folders --Folder #06,
&
Folder #09,
so this folder will be empty again, ready for the next photo to be moved
here... So far, at this stage in the procedure, you are
only working with the original photos only, that is,
NO processing is done
IN, or, TO the actual photo
itself, yet.
At this point, make sure the
Folder #06,
folder window, "",
is still open, as was done in step
STEP #012. ??
Now STOP. Goto step,
STEP #025.
There is some introductory information given
between here,
STEP #024, & there,
STEP #025.
Photo #1
= "DSC02019.jpg". Now, transform, rename
Photo #1, 1st create
a
Photo #0, out
of
Photo #1, then
transform
Photo #0, into
Photo #2. Then
transform
Photo #2,
into
Photo #3; then
transform
Photo #3,
into
Photo #4; then transform
Photo #4, into
Photo #5. All these
filenames are still only the original filenames, renamed.
After all the renamings of each photo, copy/move them out of
Folder #05,
into their correct 3 folders, , , .
(One way to begin, is described at
Photo #1. Combine what is said
at
Folder #06, & at
Photo #2.)
Now, you are almost ready to begin the actual
re-naming of all the original photos,
Photo #1,
in 3 different ways. Keep the steps small
& complete, & with complete 'if/then/goto' steps,
that repeat for a while, then continues on with the process, if the
previous steps are all completed..., etc.
But first, you must create
a
Photo #0,
which is a generic duplicate of
Photo #1,
as is done next.
HOW DONE: (Brief

Now, Right-click that only one, photo
filename, a
Photo #1,
called "DSC02019.jpg" in the
Folder #05
& choose 'Copy'; now, click
on any blank empty space in that folder, right-click
again, & choose 'Paste'. Now, a
new second generic duplicate
copied/pasted file name
Photo #0,
called "DSC02019 - Copy.jpg" is in the
Folder #05
...
After that above is done, go to

Photo #0
This
Photo #0, is just a 'copied'
generic duplicate version of some filename, which
creates a new second duplicate file name at that
place, in that folder window. It is exactly like the file that it is
'copied' from. It is unprocessed, & not 'renamed'
yet.
It is just a duplicate of the original filename
Photo #1.
It is NOT a specific filename; it can be a, is a,
& was a, has been a,
Photo #2,
Photo #3,
Photo #4,
depending on the specific steps going through at the moment.
Steps in making, creating a
Photo #0, are
STEP #025 -
STEP #029.
These steps are the main ones when first creating the first
Photo #0. Then these steps are
repeated for each of the other renamed photos, needed... That is,
Now, a new second
duplicate generic
copied/pasted filename
Photo #0, is created [called: "DSC02019 - Copy.jpg"] is in
Folder #05.
[Instead of 'ReNaming' all of the other
previously named photos,
Photo #2
-
Photo #5,
etc. I'm just calling this generic
duplicate
photo,
Photo #0. Partly because it
would be such a hassle to go through the process all over again, just to
add the 'new' photo to the list of numbered photo filenames;
also, technically, this 'new' filename is NOT
a 're-named' filename renamed by me, to be used as a
separate Photo filename, such as the other Photo filenames
are used as; also, this type of photo,
Photo #0, might, could be created many times
throughout this entire photo-editing procedure, so it,
Photo #0, is a 'non-numbered'
duplicate photo, to be used as a placeholder at times
when doing something ... I hope this all makes sense to you; it
kinda does to me ...]
There now are 2 photos in this folder:
Photo #1,
& Photo #0. So far, that
new filename
Photo #0, is just a 'copy' of,
just a duplicate of the
original filename; it has NOT been renamed yet. The
renaming of that new duplicate filename
Photo #0, the
transformation of
Photo #0, into
Photo #2, is done in the next few steps.
You see, the photo,
Photo #1,
itself, is NEVER reNamed, NOR edited in any way;
only a 'copy of' or a duplicate of
Photo #1,
is renamed, as done below... That new photo,
Photo #0, will be used, each time, you
rename it,
Photo #0, into
Photo #2,
Photo #3,
Photo #4,
with
Photo #5,
being just a re-copy of
Photo #4,
in that
Photo #4,
will be moved to
Folder #09,
&
Photo #5,
moved to
Folder #08.
['each time' ?? I believe,
Photo #2,
Photo #3,
Photo #4,
each becomes a
Photo #0, & NOT re-using
Photo #1,
each time... ?? See below...]
Both files
Photo #1,
& Photo #0,
are the same: the only difference is in what is highlighted in
Photo #0;
"DSC02019 - Copy.jpg". This is what all
filenames of this type of
Photo #0, look like
when you do the above procedure:
STEP #025, -
STEP #029.
"-Copy"
is appended to, tacked on to the end of,
the 'name'
part of any filename.
This photo,
Photo #0, is the
generic duplicate 'copy', which is automatically created,
whenever a
copy of the original filename,
Photo #1,
is needed, whenever you want to have a second copy of
any filename. But
you have NOT yet, renamed that
' second duplicate copied filename',
Photo #0, into the
specific filename, the
'renamed' filename of,
Photo #2,
that you still want.
This photo,
Photo #0, will be used
many times right in this section of this procedure of renaming all of the
original filenames. Each one of the
79 original file names,
Photo #1,
will have its own
Photo #0, with which to
work with in this renaming process.
END OF
Photo #0.
Now, ReNaming
Photo #0, a
duplicate of
Photo #1,
into a
Photo #2
filename.
{Make some kind of a {heading1 bookmark}
title out of above line, & at all other similar places:
Photo1, photo2, photo3, etc. Since this part is very
important...}
NOTE:
NOT-Correct #010
NOT-Correct
#010
This is the part of the original file that is not formatted correctly
on down for a
while... .
WATCH this part very closely, when doing all the 'UnDoing' in the
other
file...
Well, I did all the 'UnDoing' that I could do, & it
still is not OK; I could NOT back up enough to correct that mistake...
That is, undo all current stuff until I arrived back to the time when this
part was NOT all in bold formatting... At
least I tried; so the only other alternative plan would be to use a
'back-up' copy of that, this file; of which I did not have...
Therefore the only other way to get it back might be if Garry could
restore this file from some of his automatically made backed up
files on his hosting system. So...
STOP
In this file, so far for now, all is
mostly OK.
Keep checking...
Go through this file in
Internet Explorer
from top to bottom, making sure all formatting is correctly rendered...
Do this every so often; checked on:
5-20-11,
I noticed a few places that was off a little; blue text, instead of
black, & all 'italic' at one place...
Also a few minor spots with wrong color text...
There are a few places that can NOT be fixed in 'Design'
mode, for it messes up that whole section when you do 'correct'
it...
Also, many places are NOT formatting as
I want it to be done; I fix
it, then later it is messed up
again, I fix it
again, then it messes
up again, the next time file is opened, or, whatever.
I'm spending way too much time trying to fix &
re-fix the formatting in this document...
Never mind the 'colored text' inconsistencies, the 'font
fancy face' not being consistent... I MUST learn
CSS, strip ALL formatting from this document, &
apply CSS rules in a consistent manner;
EW4 by itself
messes up big time... It does not know what is going on many times, &
messes up at spots, sometimes the same thing throughout the doc file.
Seems like every time I format in a new place, it makes a new
formatting rule for that place, instead of re-using what is,
had been, already made previously; it does not know how to re-apply
the same rule again & again, instead of making a new rule,
new rules, all the time...
I called Garry Bakker, owner of "101...",
& asked him if he could (to) restore this file that was made on
May 10, 2011., since I kinda knew that this
file, which was saved on that date, was all OK, as far as I
knew. He did restore it, while I was talking to him on the phone....
So I also have another copy of this file in the "_now_1_one"
folder... Reason was, on Friday afternoon, evening,
almost time to go to work that night, some time before that, I
noticed a section that was formatted wrongly; it was all in 'bold'
... It was THIS section, on down for a ways...
See #(28) for details...
Since being 'Restored', all is OK, so far... I'm
comparing this file to the other
2 saved ones, of which,
those 2 will eventually be deleted, since all
'wanted saved different stuff' is being copied
back into this file...
HOW DONE:
(Brief preview) See at Steps:
STEP #025 -
STEP #029, &
STEP #030, -
STEP
#038.
[from
Photo #1] Now, a new
second copied/pasted filename called "DSC02019 -
Copy.jpg" is in the
Folder #05,
folder window.
Right-click on that new filename & 'Rename' it according to
this paragraph: delete the yellow background part, &
add the
'couple's names', in this case, '_Cathy', so it is renamed to: DSC02019_Cathy.jpg. When you rename the 'copy' file, the first part of the filename is
high-lighted, --which is the 'name'
part of a filename, & not the '. + 3-letter'
'extension' part, which tells what
type of file it is--, press the 'Right Arrow' key to move
cursor at end of high-lighted name part, move cursor left one space using
the 'Left Arrow' key. Now you are at the end of the
yellow background name part of the 'copy' filename. Press 'Backspace'
key to delete the yellow background name part of filename above
until you reach the end of the number; now, add an '_',
[Underscore character, press 'Shift-Dash' key, the one between
the '0' key & '=' key on top row of keys], and now,
add the 'couple's
names' [which in this case is 'Cathy']. Now click any
where in a blank empty space in the folder, and that filename is Renamed to:

Now copy
this file name into another new 'copy' file name. Right-click on "DSC02019_Cathy.jpg",

Choose 'Rename',
from pop-up window context
menu.
[The 'name'
part
of the filename, will now be
highlighted
as follows: "DSC02019
- Copy.JPG"]
Go to step:
STEP #032.
(Introductory preview information)
[Now, rename that filename according to above paragraph, by
following the next few detailed steps.]
Remember the old MS-DOS phrase,
'eight.three',
which is pronounced as: 'eight dot three'? It is the same thing as,
'name.ext';
that is, it's what a 'filename' looks
like. The blue ' name', the first part of the
filename, is the 'name'
part
of the file or photo, & could be almost any
character you want. The green 'ext', the last
part of the filename, is the '3-letter
extension', which tells what
type of file it is. In the middle of
the 'filename' is the 'period',
or 'dot', the '.',
which separates these two parts.
This next part, this part of the paragraph, is a concept that is
very important to understand, remember.
You must truly understand exactly how the
next procedure works, right down to the "'t' & 'dot'"...
This is what you will need to do:
You must physically get the mouse
cursor to be inside of that
filename,
Photo #0,
"DSC02019 - Copy.JPG", in order to do any
editing in that filename,
which is what you will be doing next. The only way to
edit, make changes in a
filename, is to 'Rename' it, and ONLY
while it's active, in its 'active
edit mode'. That is, that filename
must have the 'name' part
activated by having it be
highlighted as described in the next two
paragraphs.
When you choose 'Rename', from the
right-click context menu, in the "duplicate
'copy' filename" file, in the first part of
that filename, the computer automatically highlights
it, as in "DSC02019 - Copy.JPG" --which
is the 'name'
part of that filename, & not the '.
+ 3-letter extension'
part.
In that highlighted filename =
"DSC02019 - Copy.jpg", the
'name' part is highlighted in
'light blue' background color, with the text
in 'white' foreground color: white text on light
blue background.
[By the way, when you 'select' a filename,
the text remains 'black' &
the background color = 'pale light blue', as in:
"DSC02019
- Copy.jpg". (see: Select)]
[Highlighted
Text / Selected Text
Highlighted Text / Selected Text Of
course, the folder contents listing of filenames
in any folder window, are NOT in a 'bold face'
font, as I've done in most cases, when copying a filename from an
open folder window... I make filenames bold
so as to make it stand out from the rest of the text around it. The
computer itself, however, never makes any listing in any open folder
window bold, but it does as I've done in the 2
paragraphs above, & such as is also listed here:
(a) 'Highlighted text' in a 'Rename'
procedure, appears as: "DSC02019 - Copy.jpg",
(b) 'Selected text' in an
'Open'
folder window,
appears as: "DSC02019
- Copy.jpg".]
(Now, you want to delete/replace
the ' - Copy'
part of the name, with '_Cathy'.)
This is what you will be doing next: delete the
'yellow background' text part,
as shown here, "DSC02019 -
Copy.jpg", delete the " -
Copy" part of the 'name', which =
7 characters total.
Then add, type in the
'couple's names', in this case, '_Cathy', so it's renamed to: DSC02019_Cathy.jpg.
And this next few steps is how it is all done. Now, on to the actual steps you
will take to accomplish all this.
(STEP
#032)
STEP #032;
(Total Steps
STEP #032)
HOW DONE:
Make sure that the 'name'
part of that filename,
Photo #0, is still highlighted;
IF you have clicked
in any place on your desktop, for any reason, even if accidentally,
or have began any kind of typing, the
highlighting in that
filename goes away, is turned off. You are out of,
--not in--,
'active edit mode', any longer.
If that filename is no
longer highlighted, Go Back
& redo steps
STEP #030,
&
STEP #031.
Now, the 'name' part of that
filename is highlighted again,
as in: "DSC02019 - Copy.JPG".
Now, while the name
part is still highlighted,
Go To next step

NOW right-click that new copied/pasted name & choose "Rename";
Rename "DSC02019_Cathy - Copy.jpg"
TO "19_Cathy_NF_V_ORIG.jpg".
That is, delete all of copy of Photo#2,
except the yellow background part, and
add other symbols to that file name, according
to how you view the photo, according to the listings under "What's
In 'Edited' Photo Name. In this case, no flash was used, so add
NF. It is in vertical position, so add
V; and it is still the original photo, so add ORIG.
That is, (duplicate similar procedure at
Photo #2),
right-click "DSC02019_Cathy -
Copy.jpg", choose 'Rename', press 'Right
Arrow' key, press 'Left Arrow' key once. Now
delete all but what is in the yellow background above; file name should start
with "19_Cathy ... .jpg", deleting the first part of photo,
and the ' - Copy' part; add NF, V, ORIG with underscores between the
symbols, to make Photo #3 called: "19_Cathy_NF_V_ORIG.jpg".
Now make a 'COPY' of this file to be used for, in
Photo
#4 = #5. (Follow the similar procedure as in above in 'How
Done') The 'copied file name' will be called: "19_Cathy_NF_V_ORIG
- Copy.jpg". Now go to

This next part is the 'meat'
meat
of the making, creating a
Photo #2,
photo. It is/was divided into smaller steps, so as to be easy to perform.
That is, I used the next below 2 paragraphs, &
divided them up into the smaller steps, then made corrected adjustments to the
steps...
Then I copied/pasted those steps at their proper places, & then deleted those
steps from this area below... I will do this, all over again, in a similar way,
at
Photo
#3, &
Photo #4,
places in this doc... (I will go through these 2 sets of steps,
Part (F),
Part (G),
all over again when creating the other renamed
Photo
#3,
Photo #4,
photos. I guess just copy/paste those steps at the appropriate places, &
then just correct, adjust, update, the
old info with the new info...
This is 'how' I did it here, at this
place;
{All of the steps talked about in this area,
all the steps made here are now/were copy/paste to
their proper places in this doc above, then they were deleted from THIS area
below.}) (see:
Part (H)
at the 'How to Do' next parts...)
HOW DONE:
(Brief preview) See Steps:
STEP #025 -
STEP #029.
Now, Right-click that only one,
photo filename, a
Photo #1,
called "DSC02019.jpg" in the
Folder #05
& choose 'Copy'; now,
click on any blank empty space in that
folder window, right-click again, & choose
'Paste'. Now, a new
generic second duplicate
'copied/pasted' filename
Photo #0, called "DSC02019 - Copy.jpg"
is in the
Folder #05 folder window... Now, go to
Photo #2 to
change it, rename it into a
Photo #2 filename, by following the directions at that place, given below.
HOW DONE:
(Brief preview) See Steps:
STEP #030 -
STEP
#038.
[from
Photo #1] Now, a new
second copied/pasted file name called "DSC02019 -
Copy.jpg" is in the
Folder #05.
Right-click on that new file
name & 'Rename' it according to
above paragraph: delete the yellow background part, &
add the
'couple's names', in this case, '_Cathy', so it is renamed to: DSC02019_Cathy.jpg. When you rename the 'copy' file, the first part of the file name is
high-lighted, --which is the 'name'
part of a file name, & not the '. + 3-letter'
'extension' part, which tells what
type of file it is--, press the 'Right Arrow' key to move
cursor at end of high-lighted name part, move cursor left one space using
the 'Left Arrow' key. Now you are at the end of the
yellow background name part of the 'copy' file name. Press 'Backspace'
key to delete the yellow background name part of file name above
until you reach the end of the number; now, add an '_',
[Underscore character, press 'Shift-Dash' key, the one between
the '0' key & '=' key on top row of keys], and now,
add the 'couple's
names' [which in this case is 'Cathy']. Now click any
where in a blank empty space in the folder, and the file name is Renamed to:
"DSC02019_Cathy.jpg".
(Preview
of next section)
Now copy
this file name into another new 'copy' file name. Right-click on "DSC02019_Cathy.jpg",
choose 'Copy', now click in any
empty space in folder, now right-click again & choose 'Paste'. Now a new copied/pasted file name called: "DSC02019_Cathy
- Copy.jpg" is in the
Folder #05.
Now go to
Photo #3,
this is the photo file name that is changed, rename into
Photo #3, file name.}
NOW, NUMBER the STEPS HERE... NO,
Copy each part below first to
Folder #05,
then to

#038.
{All the steps made here are/were copy/paste to
their proper places, then they were deleted from THIS area.}
In this next part, could do it asis, or use
Photo #0,
to do it... It may be easier to do it as follows, because you see the
progression from the older filename to the
newer filename...
(Preview
of next section)
Now, "copy/paste"
this filename into another new 'copy' filename. Right-click on "DSC02019_Cathy.jpg",
choose 'Copy', now, click in any
empty space in folder window, now, right-click again & choose 'Paste'. Now a new copied/pasted file name called: "DSC02019_Cathy
- Copy.jpg" is in the
Folder #05.
Now go to
Photo #3,
this is the photo filename that is changed, rename into
Photo #3, filename.}
This above part is now DONE, except for the following lines... Look more into it, as
all the renaming is finished...
{Copy this
Photo #2, & the above
Photo #1, into
Folder #07, (when all done, then copy all of
Folder #07 to the "Couple's Personal Folder"),
& only
work on a copy of "Photo #3", starting in
Photo #4 =
#5.}
{Also copy this filename into "Folder #06}
{Never edit this photo.}
{Never use this photo -Photo #2- to edit it; ONLY use Photo #3, but then ONLY first make
a copy of
Photo #3, & only use the 'copy'
of
Photo #3, to edit it, such as further editing starting in
Photo #4 = #5 below.}
NOW, on to

Photo #3,
photos.
{Yes, on to the making of a 'photo #3',
Photo #3, &
then further on, on to the making of a 'photo #4',
Photo #4.
I will be 'repeating' the above ideas, procedures again,
2 times, in the making of these additional photos.

Introduction to Photos
Introduction to Photos
What this part is doing is showing the progression, the
transformation from the original filename
to the final processed finished photo name, basically in
5 photo-renaming steps. You may
not have to go through so many steps if all you have are your own photos; but I
have 14 or 15, ??
sets of photos to go through, sort out, and rename, and
resize, and put into each
Couple's Personal Folder, finally ready to email to
Tracy, who will email them to you. I don't want Tracy to have to do any of the
sorting & processing of photos, which is very time consuming, so I'm doing it. Only
thing is, I don't know the names of everyone, and only Tracy has the email
addresses from his master church email list. So he will sent them out by email
to each couple or single one. I will try to only email one couple's photos at a
time to him, so maybe I will not have to ZIP them. Anyways, I'll only do
whatever AOL email let me do...
Save As...
Save As...
When done editing the 'COPY photo' --a copy of the original photo--,
you must 'Save' the new filename
by only using the
"Save As..." function from the 'File'
pull-down menu, which saves it with an new
different appropriate filename,
according to what you type (or, edit
the highlighted filename that is already in) into the 'File
name:' line box. [Never use
just the 'Save' command, --'Ctrl-S'-- because that
DELETES the original filename
with a new file that uses the
SAME filename; it 'replaces' the
old original file name with a new
file, which definitely is NOT
what you want done. What you want done is for a new
SECOND different filename to be
added in to the folder
window that
you are saving the file to...] That
newly saved photo, is now a processed, finished photo. I like to add, tack on, append a "_01", or an "_A" to the
end of a filename, so as to mark different versions of that
same photo... Depends
on what I'm doing; usually I'm just working on 1 photo total
at any one time. Not like this job,
which has many sets of photos to process. So back to that first line in
this paragraph. When done with a photo, save it as a
new 'Save As...' file. Then, if you want to do other
things to the original photo, always start all over again, & use a
'COPY
photo' to work with. Most of the time you NEVER want to do
additional editing to
a photo you have already edited in the past & saved, unless you know what
you are doing, and are working with an expensive program like
Adobe Photoshop
CS5, or whatever, which allows you to edit
a 'pre-edited' photo, without messing things up in the process.
But, generally speaking, each time you edit & save, edit & save,
again & again, the
SAME photo, over & over again, the photo
degrades in quality over time, does not look as good
as did the original photo, so always use a COPY of the
original photo to begin
editing again with that photo.
(Now, ready to start on
Photo #1, the first original photo filename in the list
of names, which happens to be Cathy Wilcox photo... I will start at the
beginning, to see if the directions, instructions, are in the correct order & complete, and that nothing is
left out, so far in the process... {This now will be my third
+ attempt at doing this;
I got quite a ways that time, but now since making a third copy of the original
file name, the steps & labels changed some... So will see how things now works
out...} Bless me God! Help me God!)
What is taking me so long in doing this job?
All the
folders used, now in use, were
not yet created, & I had to figure out
the correct order & naming of those 9 folders. I had not yet figured
out how many photos I even needed, and/or wanted, nor the
order & renaming of them yet... All I had was the 80
original photos that was taken & saved in some folder. The
step-by-step process & procedure had not been finished yet;
I even did not have such a process in place yet, let alone the refining of
it... That is why I have to re-start all over again every so often, to
test the steps in the process, to
see if all the steps so far makes sense, --to refresh my memory,
& to make sure the total procedure is easy to follow again when needed in the
future. Of course, in this process, I'm also refining the wording
that I use to tell about it, & refining this document
formatting, too...
Somehow, I have to integrate the folders processes,
with the photos processes, & come up with the proper numbered steps
in doing all of this for the total, final procedure of editing
these 79 photos into the finished product. I'm forever keeping going
over, re-reading/editing the numbered folders, & the numbered
photos, to see, understand how they all intersect,
react to, interact with, interplay, integrate,
with each other, so as to tell what should come next, what the next
numbered step should be, in the total ordered numbered steps necessary to
finish the job. The next numbered step in this process
must be made clear to me, beyond the shadow of a doubt. That is,
it must be logical, natural, reasonable, sensible, with
no backtracking... Of course, right now, I'm backtracking all
over the place, going from here, to there, trying to make
sense of it all. Right now, I seem to be stumped, not knowing
how to do, or what that next step should be ... I must
integrate the numbered photos & the numbered folders into each
numbered
step as I go along this winding pathway towards my ultimate goal of
a finished product of photos in each set of photos to be processed.
I guess, when I use the word 'folder' in a given numbered
step, I must give that specific numbered folder link in that place, and
when I use the word 'photo' in a given numbered step, I must
also give that specific numbered photo link in that place. Making more sense now,
I guess... Try this out in the first few steps that are in this
document so far, at
Total Steps.
(WARNING NOTICE: After you receive these photos,
if
you decide to re-name any of the 'original' filenames, that I
sent you, always keep tract of the renaming process, always keep track, record, write down, in a
Notepad note document what you did,
& how you did it. If you don't, you will forget
what you
did to the photo at a later date when you re-visit that photo for some reason...
Sadly & regretfully, I know from sorrowful first-hand experience! I've
accidentally lost original photo filenames, never to be found again.)
|
(NOTE: Tracy, do you archive all
email addresses & their
names, even of folks who no longer attend The Rock MCC, so in
case you need to contact them some day in the future, you could? I know
email addresses change from time to time, but the person(s) it belonged to,
hopefully you still have their name & contact information saved in some archived
file somewhere... Even if you only have just a valid name, that would be
very helpful many times in looking them up on the Internet...)
Make an archive subfolder in each "Couple's Personal Folder"
called "_Archive_Original_Photo_FileNames"
to hold the four 'original' photo file names. Then put the
usable "COPY photo" & all the finished photos in the main folder...
Is this the way to go? I think so... Have NOT done this yet, to
each couple's main folder...

NOW right-click that new copied/pasted name & choose "Rename"; Rename "DSC02019_Cathy - Copy.jpg" TO "19_Cathy_NF_V_ORIG.jpg". That is, delete all of copy of Photo#2,
except the yellow
background part, and add other
symbols to that file name, according to
how you view the photo, according to the listings under "What's
In 'Edited' Photo Name. In this case, no flash was used, so add NF. It is in vertical position, so
add V; and it is still the original photo, so add ORIG. That is, (duplicate similar
procedure at
Photo #2), right-click "DSC02019_Cathy
- Copy.jpg", choose 'Rename',
press 'Right Arrow' key once, press 'Left Arrow' key once. Now delete all but what is in the yellow background above; file name should start with "19_Cathy
... .jpg", deleting the first part of the photo filename,
and the ' - Copy' part; add NF, V, ORIG with
underscores between the symbols, to make a
Photo #3, called: "19_Cathy_NF_V_ORIG.jpg".
Now make a 'COPY' of this file to be used
for, in
Photo #4 = #5. (Follow the
similar procedure as in above in 'How Done') The 'copied filename' will be called: "19_Cathy_NF_V_ORIG

Never edit this photo:

{see:
Photo #5 Change}
This new photo #5, is different
from the Photo #5,
Photo #5, listed on down in this doc... [Is this part right?
Yes, I believe, so far... Are the numbers correct so far??]
[I don't know yet, I have not gone over the photo numbers recently;
the folder numbers are now all OK, 9 folders total now.] [Can
NOT have 2 photos by same filename, so old photo05,
becomes new photo06, old photo06, becomes new photo07,
etc. ?? ??]
(Photo #5) At this stage, all of the filenames so far, have been
copies of the original filename, they
have just only been ReNamed a few times for a
total of 4 different filenames. Three (3) of them have had the word "-
Copy" in their names at one time when making them, signifying that they were indeed
'copied' from the original filename... And as you can see, all
4 of
the photos filenames are of the SAME saved file size - 2,260 KB, which is
correct. You are working in Folder #6, ??, which is
where these photos I'm talking about are in. Now you can move
3 of them to
Folder #06 ?? or
Folder #03 ?? [_was_2_ or
_to_Number_3_], & to
Folder #07, and leave the filename with the word "- Copy"
in it's name. Copy the 3 files to the 2 mentioned folders, then delete those
3
files, since you are done, finished with them, and they are safe in their
respective folders.
You are only 'working' with, some how, in some manner,
in the processing of the only 1 photo in the
MAIN Working
Temp
Folder
#05. Never 'work' in any of the other folders;
they are only 'holding' folders, folders to only
copy/move/paste/delete photos in to/out
of, etc.
Now comes the really fun & frustrating part: this is the real "meat"
of the deal. This is where the real work begins, and is the real
purpose of the whole thing. Now you are beginning to "EDIT" the original filename, "EDIT" the original
photo... (Up to now, all you have been doing is renaming files & copying them into various folders, which does nothing to the file
size, nor is that editing the photo in any way.) To edit, change, a
photo, you must have a 'photo editing program' on your computer
system. You 'load' a photo into your program, such as
IrfanView, or
Photoshop CS5, and start to play around, mess with it, use the
program to 'rotate' photos to correct viewing position, or resize
the photo smaller, or other more complicated things like changing some of
the colors, or any of the other thousands of things one can do to a photo.
{Start with a COPIED version of
Photo #3, [should be
Photo #4,
or photo5 ?? right? ??] which = filename of "19_Cathy_NF_V_ORIG -
Copy.jpg". Now you load, open, that file in, for instance, in the IrfanView program. Now
you have to pay attention to all the options, all the defaults
settings, etc. & look around in the 'Save'
or 'Save As...' dialog window box that pops up for
you to enter/change what is in that box.}
{Since this photo name has a 'V' in it, it means the photo was taken
in vertical or portrait position, & that the camera was also in that
position, which means that the photo viewed in default mode which is
in horizontal position means that the photo contents is laying on its
side, or is sideways from what it should be; the orientation is wrong. The photo must be flipped, or rotated to the left or to the right. Since the persons head is lying to the 'left' in the
horizontal position, it must be 'rotated to the right'
to be viewed properly vertically as in a full portrait picture.
So, the first thing to do, is to load, open the above named photo in
IrfanView; since that program is my default picture viewer, all I
need to do is to double-click on the photo filename, "19_Cathy_NF_V_ORIG
- Copy.jpg", and it opens automatically in
IrfanView. Since the contents of the photo is laying down on its
side, you have to hunt around to see what menu button to press to make
it 'right-side up' again. In the top menu, click on 'Image'
> go down & click on 'Rotate Right', and
the photo is right-sided up in full portrait position. Now to save the
photo, click on 'File', go down & click
on 'Save (original folder)', in the pop-up 'Save
...' window, check 'Show options dialog' & 'Details'. In the 'File name:' box, ReName the file name by pressing 'Backspace' key up to the V, then add 'R' after the V to the file
name. In the 'options' box to the right of
the 'Save' box, notice that the 'Save
quality:' is default setting at 80.
Click 'Save'. The new filename = "19_Cathy_NF_VR.jpg". Notice that the file size when down from 2,269 KB to
577 KB. Now
double-click on "19_Cathy_NF_V_ORIG -
Copy.jpg" again, rotate the photo as above, then
in the 'options' box, slide the slider to 100, rename file name, to add 100 to filename which represents the 'Save
quality', so the file name is "19_Cathy_NF_VR100.jpg", then click 'Save'. Notice the file
size has increased, even past the original file size, from 2,260 KB to
2930 KB!}
{I've notice that the 'Save quality:' option of
40 & above looks about the same, I can't really see any difference between
the lower end & higher end; there probably is, but not to the naked
eye, or the untrained eye... But there is a vast difference in file
size. Now, on to the actual photo 'paper' sizes...}
"Rotate Right" in
IrfanView, renamed: - "19_Cathy_NF_VR.jpg"
= ? ??}
{Here, at this stage, always make a COPY of
Photo #3 EACH
time you want to change something in the photo -in this case, Rotate Right. NEVER reuse the each
'Saved copy' over & over again; each time you resave that file, it becomes less clear & less clear. It is just like on a
copy machine, each time you copy a "fill-out form', and you keep recopying the last one made, after a while it gets so less clear, unclear, that you can NOT even
read the copy you just made. (I've seen this happen many times at work); that is why you ALWAYS make a copy of the original copy ONLY, & ALWAYS keep that copy in a safe place NEVER to be used, except to make copies of it, the original copy... Same thing applies to the saving of photos on a computer.
Always make a copy of the original photo to experiment with; never use the "experimented saved file" to make further changes to; (you can of course if you know what you are doing), but to start all over again, always use a COPY of the original photo to do your changes to, never use the original photo to make changes to...
All you have to do here, is just
double-click on that 'copy' file of "19_Cathy_NF_V_ORIG -
Copy.jpg" and you're all set to experiment again! What ever you experiment with, always correspond it with, to
a symbol, & its abbreviation in the filename, so as to keep track of what
you did, & how it affected the file size, etc.... Could also keep
track on hand-written paper, or, type, copy/paste facts into a
document file such as this, using "Notepad"
or some other text editor.
NOTE: to copy an actual filename, in a
folder window, click 'Rename', then
copy that filename, --Ctrl-C-- click anywhere in folder
window to then cancel
the rename, then paste --Ctrl-V-- that filename into your notes in
Notepad, or whatever. (see also: )}

(The 'was at' sentence, at the
beginning of the following notes, is/was
true at that time of
writing; that is, a given folder's name may have changed since
that note was written...)
(The
Typing the Text
section, is generally not applied to the following tiny
footnotes..., because they were made before the newer rules were put in place,
& it would take longer to proofread those notes...)
Note #02 (Note
#02 on HIDE) (see:
Sidetracked #01)
I want to 'HIDE' some text at this spot,
at this place in this document, to see if it shows up in 'View >
Source' when in a browser...
The next line up IS hidden in the browser
itself, BUT...
Sorry, nothing is 'Hidden' when
viewing the
source
code online in real time... Wow, I didn't know this in the past, when I was hiding stuff that I
wanted to save & keep, but did not want other people to see it online....
They could have seen it online, if they had
known about
'view source' ...
In Internet Explorer,
from menu, View > Source.
NOTHING IS PRIVATE !!! Nothing is private online!!!
'font > hidden' text is
never
private.
'Comment' in 'code' mode IS
also NOT
EVER private.
Wow!
If you want some 'text notes' to be
Private, copy/paste it into a document that is
NEVER posted online, but
is saved & located ONLY on your
hard drive, or on
an USB Flash Drive that is properly hidden in someplace; then
DELETE
that information notes from ALL online web pages...
[Sidetracked #01, digression
Sidetracked #01]
(Move this part else where...) [Was under
Folder #01]
Folder #01:
"F:\
Sony Camera memory: "DCIM\101MSDCF"
"DCIM \ 101MSDCF"
This/Above line [Folder #01:
"F:\
Sony ...] must be re-done ... "the 'Auto' color of the
background color,
'highlight color', does NOT
strip the highlight background color off, that is, make the background
color 'clear' or, transparent,
which means, just leaving the background photo/graphics colors to
show
through... In
FrontPage 2003, it did just that, which I liked... I don't like how
EW4 does it, instead of making the highlight background color
'clear', it makes it a white highlight background
color for 'auto color' (or, whatever the default color
happens to be at that particular place)... When the above 'white' background color shows up in the browser, you must go back into the
EW4
program to 'fix' it.
HOW DONE: On the
same line where mistake is at, go beyond where the wrong 'un-clear'
background color is at, & Type a few spaces, then basically, you
must
re-type [&,
but NOT copy/paste from/in/to this the same program;
CAN copy/paste it into
Notepad,
for that program strips away all formatting; then copy/paste from
Notepad
back into EW4]
that info back into doc at a/that 'good place', then save doc,
& check it out in your browser to see if it is now correct... In FrontPage
2003 the photo/graphic background always showed through in the 'design' mode; it does NOT show through in
EW4.
There has been times when I wanted to hide a link, etc. make
the link text the same color as the background color, so
that I could use
it --because I knew where it was hidden--, but others probably would not find it
--because you did not know WHAT to look
for, when hunting for hidden links--... When the
background color is a solid color, this is perfectly easily done.
But when the background color is an image, it is impossible to
match the link text to the image colors... But when using
'Auto' in FrontPage, it did blend
into the background image colors, it became 'clear',
'transparent', which is what I also want done in
EW4,
instead of it becoming a solid color, which does not match the photo colors of
the background image.
So, I have basically 2 main
gripes, complaints, against
EW4 so far:
(1) 'auto
highlight color' does NOT 'clear,
make transparent' the
added highlight
background color, which was added at a previous time,
in which case, you now want to delete
that added 'highlight background color', but as of now,
can NOT; instead it gives a (default) 'white'
highlight background color; I hate that...
(2)
when using 'font > hidden' to blank out some text, hide it from
viewing in a browser, it also blanks the text out in
'Design' mode in
EW4. I hate that,
because I can no longer tell, see WHERE
exactly, that blanked out text is at, in
the document when in 'design' mode. Therefore, I
sometimes accidentally delete those comments, hidden text, at times;
very bad, for I'm saving some things for future reference. But it
had always showed up in FrontPage,
& at one time, it also did in EW4 just before my laptop 'crashed' this
last time, but now it does NOT show up in 'Design' mode; how
to make it show up again ? ??
[This is not to be confused with a 'comment' in code mode, which is also
hidden from a browser viewing,
yet can be read in the 'code' mode part of the program, when
you have that program opened, & are reading the HTML
code in Code mode. I keep
many notes in 'comments' as to how things are done, etc.]
[What about 'view
source code' while in a browser? ?? Do 'font >
hidden' & 'comments' show up in the that kind of code listing ? ??
that anyone in the 'know' can view & read ? ?? Or are these
'hidden text' always private ? ?? 'Comments'
in code mode are always hidden, even in 'view
source code'. But 'font > hidden' always shows up in
'view source code', it can be read, because it is part of the
HTML code itself. See Note
#02 at end of this document.]
(ReName following folders according to it's sub-title underneath folder
label name... DONE!
Hopefully, I will need to add no more folders, which would mess numbered
order up again.
But I do need to switch folders #4
& #5 around... DONE!
Now since that is done, must now reName the hard drive folder names
accordingly... & copy/paste their names below...
DONE!)

Typing the
Text
Typing the Text
(The 'How to Do' Rules in making text clearer to read)
When writing, typing text into this document, use the following
ideas, suggestions, conventions, formatting
rules:
This is how I'm doing it; you won't find most of this used in
regular printed materials. I use these things to make the
document more readable --in my own eyes & mind.
It may take more space on paper, but that is the way I
like it. I'm putting every thing concerning this topic, at this place,
so as to be easy to find, & to go over, review, & implement on paper, in
a document file. (In this section only, add 4
spaces after each semicolon,
so as to make a visual distinction between each
named item.) [Find, & add other items here also,
that may be scattered throughout this doc.]
(01) Double space after periods; commas; semicolons; colons; etc.; some
important word or phrase; italicized word; '=';
(02) Double space before
& after links in the text;
phrase with '/'
in it; phrase enclosed within quotes or braces;
double dashes --; items in #06;
colored background highlighted text; '&' meaning
'and';
(03) Double space before
'or' '&' '#' [unless in a link]; a number by itself, & the spelled out number word, such as
'first', 1st; '>', used as a
short-cut symbol, which means, leading to a next
step when in a dialog box, or in menu item steps,
'>' means: 'find, & go to next step', 'click on',
as in a list of steps, '>' = 'next part, or step'
in some dialog box, or menu item;
(04) Double space between
words in all CAPITAL LETTERS;
(05) Capitalize main important word or phrase in a
sentence or paragraph, no matter where located in a sentence.
(06)
06 Bold & Italicize program names;
some proper names; many links; Folder
Numbers; Photo Numbers;
(07) Bold all 'list' numbers
(1); STEP Numbers;
(08) In the 'HOW DONE' & 'STEP'
sections, Capitalize & Bold
& Italicize the
words: Copy, Move,
Paste, ReName, Delete. Also, when there
is a dual word phrase, such as, 'copy/Move',
capitalize & bold & Italicize the more important
word, as done here, because, the bold word is what is
really being talked about, is the word that is really being
used, & not the other word, although the other word may be
implied in the bold word.
(09) Use an addition space after certain
important words, instead of using a
comma, where commas are not needed, etc. ... This breaks up
the line a little, and calls attention to that word just a little
bit more. It also adds a breathing space at that
place, a quick pause, a quick rest at that
place in the train of thought.
(10) Add three spaces before &
after when information is in braces,
brackets, [...]
(11) Add double '??' after
info that I am in question about, that is,
don't know correct wording at this moment, or not sure if the information
at that place is correct, but the info must be later
looked up, & then copied to that place at a later time...
Also, put it beside misspelled words,
in order to correct it in the future. Also at places where a link goes,
but have not found it yet.
(12)
12 When typing/editing somewhere, & you do NOT want next part to be formatted
in some manner, back-up to last letter in
previous word [&/or, go forward past
first letter in next word] & start
typing the 'correct' stuff that you want at that place...
Then delete all unwanted stuff around it, making sure
that the final result is what you want, & correct the spelling mistakes that
this process also does to the 'previous' or 'next'
words... For example, putting un-bold single quote
around a bold word; if you just add the quotes asis, they
automatically become bold also, which you don't want in this case. So,
for the left-hand quote, back up the cursor to an
un-bold spot, & start typing as given above, & in the
right-hand quote, go forward to a place that is un-bold,
& start typing as given above... You have to experiment
some when first beginning to do this until you get used to it...
Easier done, then said. (see:
Note #04)
(13)
To
Un-Format,
copied text from some program, or other document,
Copy/Paste that text into
Notepad,
then re-copy & Paste the text
back into
the document you are editing. Then format it as needed.
(14)
14
When using 'it', 'them', etc.
always copy/paste the word phrase
that it refers to into its place in this doc, so the 'it'
word will not be ambiguous, that is, meaning, 'what is
it referring back to?' ...
"what previously
used 'word phrase' is the word 'it'
referring back to?", sometimes the meaning of 'it',
is not clear, might not be clear from the context surrounding it... So
make it clear, by later on, copy/paste the word phrase into
the 'it' spot, when re-reading, editing this doc in the
future...
(15)
Don't use additional --'-- single quotes within a
'single quote phrase'; instead, enclose that whole
phrase within double quotes first... as in the quote bolded
in #14.
(16)
'Press' & 'Click' basically
means the same thing, I use them interchangeably at times; although,
in reality, 'Press' refers to 'Press
down on a key
on the keyboard one time', while 'Click' refers to
'Click a left mouse button
one time'. And, most of the time,
'Click' refers to, implies 'clicking the
left mouse button', unless otherwise stated, as in,
'Right-click' on... .
(17) Only click the cursor mouse pointer in the
'text
sections' of doc.
Do NOT Click in the right-hand margin of
this document; or else you will be moved to another place in doc
which is NOT the place you want... This also applies when 'Copying'
text at some place in doc: always keep the cursor, while
selecting
the text, within that particular paragraph section only; if you
stray outside of that section, you will end up at
some unwanted place in this doc.
This is very important.
(18) When making the same small
change throughout the whole document, use the 'Find'
--Ctrl-F, pop-up window to find all
occurrences of whatever you want to find... Click 'Find
Next', then edit at that spot, Click 'Find Next',
etc. Save the file every so often while doing this. This is much
faster then re-reading & hunting by hand,
manually, for items to
change in some manner. At times, can 'Find'
& then 'Replace', which makes the
change for you automatically, if you set it up right... (I just used
the 'Find' to find all '&', in order to add an extra
space after it, which then makes it have 2 spaces before the '&'
& 2 spaces after the '&', as stated in 'Rule #02'
(19) When 'Moving' a
file name to more then
one folder,
you first must 'Copy' that filename to
each one of the 'to'
folders you want to move the photo into; after that
is all done, then you can 'Delete' that filename from the 'from' folder.
(20) Remove all 'active'
links to local hard drive folders
listings, such as is made when you press 'Enter-Shift'
to move to the next line down in this document. Those kinds of links
are automatically made when you do that, but since those links
go nowhere, & creates an error in a browser when viewing
document online, they are useless, so, in this doc file,
right-click on that link, choose 'Hyperlink
Properties', then choose 'Remove Link',
to get rid of the typical characteristics of a link, that is, the
blue color text, & the underline line.
(21) Send an email to
myself, use my email address, with
links in it to this document file... And copy
it to a folder where all these photos are all finally be stored in... As
well as a text file, there also.
How
to make an email copy. Open
AOL,
my basic email program. Choose 'Mail'
> 'Write Mail'. Type
some text, & add the link to this document into
that email, which is:
http://www.therockmcc.org/photo_editing_part_01.htm. Click 'Send
Mail', now, Open that email; Click
on 'File' > 'Save
As...', in pop-up window, Click 'Desktop',
type in a title name in the 'File name:'
line box... such as 'Saved_EMail_Links_01',
in the 'Save as type:' line box, choose
'HTML Files (*.html)', then click on 'Save'.
Now, open that file with any browser,
or just double-click on that file, &
Internet Explorer opens it so you can read it.
If you want to keep on making changes to that email,
do as follows:
re-open it, edit it,
copy/paste content into a new
email, send it, re-open it,
edit, send again, etc. [In this instance, forget about
'Reply', 'Forward', etc.
Basically, just keep the newest edited email
sent to yourself, & delete the previous
older editions of that particular edited email. This is
also a good way of testing out
links, to see if they work correctly. Also, this is a
good way of 'saving' stuff, info,
emails, that I want
saved.]
(22) When typing in the 'STEP' parts,
use 'present
tense verbs' only.
Use 'Copy/Paste'; 'Open';
etc. Do NOT use 'Copied/Pasted'; 'Opened'; etc.
Even though 'correct English' would demand it.
In the explanation parts, use correct English
as normally would do, if so desired.
(23) When moving/pasting/deleting some
portion, section, in this document to another place,
LEAVE the original
stuff at the original place,
for the time being. Because, when you move content
around to a different place, sometimes, some of the
original formatting disappears, or takes on other
formatting from around place pasted into. Make
sure the 'pasted' part is formatted just like
the original; if not, use that original section as a guide,
in the re-formatting of the 'pasted' part. Then can delete the
'copied' original stuff, after the edited part looks OK.
(24) Add a 'Open', 'Close' folder
window, folder window, into the steps
'STEP' ...
(25) In the 'STEPS' area, also
Bookmark the 'STEP #001', & bookmark it as
'STEP001' in the Bookmark dialog box; then make a link
back to it just after the 'Total
Steps' link... Then copy that link back to that
STEP number, so can move back & forth between the
'Steps' area, & the 'Total Steps' area,
when reading this doc file, NOT when online...
Other words, move back & forth between both areas where that
'same' step is at... This will involve extra work,
but that is OK.
(26) In the 'STEPS' area,
make sure the correct computer file folder is always displayed
correctly. That is,
Folder #03, should
always point to the "_Misc_3_..." folder
on my laptop hard drive, etc.
(27) In most cases, always add,
Type a "," or, a "." right
after the Photo links, or the Folder
links. That is, when typing a new sentence that will use those
links, add, type in a comma
or, a period at those places
to be used as placeholders. In places that is already typed in, add
those marks in the appropriate places, making sure they are still
'black' & 'small' font size.
(28)
28 When
the general Formatting at some point in this doc has
become messed up, for a while, must do this to get
out of that mess... Go into "Site View" tab,
Right-Click on the file that is 'messed-up',
Choose 'Rename',
Add, Type in '_org_'
into that filename 'name' part; OK, OK. Now a second
created added filename is in that folder window, with '_org_'
somewhere in that filename; in this case, it is called: "photo_editing_org_part_01.htm".
This is the filename that you will temporarily NOT be
EDITING in for a while, until it is NOT messed up anymore. After the
'next part' is done, you will be trying to 'UnDo'
all added stuff, until the correct formatting is back
into the 'messed-up part' of that doc... Meanwhile, since you did
NOT notice the format mess-up until
after you added more stuff to that doc, that you want
saved, & NOT deleted, for when you 'UnDo' stuff, that stuff is
automatically deleted from the doc..., you must do
this 'next part' also... That is, up until now,
you did did the 'first part' of this # (28)
part. You Copied & Pasted a new second file into that folder window. You
'Renamed' the original filename into a new
filename of "photo_editing_org_part_01.htm",
& the second copy of that filename, with the " - Copy"
part in, you renamed it into a file called: "photo_editing_part_01_NEW_SAVED_PARTS.htm";
& this is the file you are now editing in, temporarily, since you need this
(28) part to know how, what, you did to make this all happen... You HAD
to ADD in the top second line into this doc, & HAD to ADD in this (28)
part into this doc; after this is done, NO MORE EDITING in THIS doc...
OK, I did all the 'UnDoing' that I could do, but incorrect formatting is
still at that place... Should have saved, kept, the original filename, instead of
deleting it after doing above 2 things... Oh, Well... When you 'delete' a
filename in EW4, it is gone forever, never to be regained again...
Next time, SAVE, MOVE the original filename into a separate folder
window, for safe keeping... . OK, I had
Garry at "101" restore this
filename from May 10, 2011, back into this
website; & I'm editing this file again.! And a copy of it is in
"_now_1_one"... {see notes earlier...}
Meanwhile, use THIS copy, to 'copy new stuff' back into the other saved
filename... Yes, I'm using that other file, the original
file, to do just
that...
This part is not done yet... refine it... The
basics are here, for the most part...
STOP
(29)
'filename', & 'file name';
distinguish between these two phrases. I've
been using just 'file name', which may be wrong in most cases
in this doc. Look into this. ?? ??

How To
ReName Photos
How To
ReName Photos & Folders
Following is the now edited/expanded version of the Notepad document file
mentioned above ...
Following is directions, instructions in "How I ReNamed the Photos"
in this document...
8 General Instructions
(A)
(B)
(C)
=======================================================
Photo Editing: Part 01
DOC FILENAME WORKING ON... --which is
this total document.
........................................... [This part of doc
was a separate file doc in a Notepad
doc file. The first 8 steps lists the 'general
way' of doing this procedure of re-doing, renaming the
bookmarks labels. You see, each folder/photo file name,
has its corresponding bookmark label name. That bookmark itself
must be changed first, then saved,
before using that bookmark to link the folder/photo
filename to that link, or bookmark.]
(1)
Put, write here, the Old file/folder label name, & what it is to
become
--the new label name.
>.__________.< [fill in]
(2)
Put, write here, the New file/folder label name, as used in the above named doc
file... --now all is in this doc file, in this particular
place, down below here.
>.__________.< [fill in]
(3)
First, must highlight, select the word phrase (by double clicking it with left mouse
button), that already is a current bookmark, or that is to
become a bookmark.
(4)
Must Change the Bookmark for that label,
press CTRL-G, to first
delete that bookmark,
--click 'Clear' to delete current bookmark;
(5)
then second, Ctrl-G again, to make a
new bookmark out of the
new name ... Most of the time that new bookmark code name will
automatically be filled in on the top entry line... IF not, if
that top line is blank, --which means that there already
is a bookmark by that very same name, do as follows:
(6)
(Sometimes you have to copy/paste the correct
bookmark label name you are working with,
into the Bookmark window dialog box top line that pops up when you press
Ctrl-G.
So, first, always
copy --Ctrl-C, the label,
before pressing Ctrl-G, in case you need
to paste it, & if you do need it --top line is blank,
Ctrl-V to paste the new label in the window Bookmark name blank top
line box, & then make sure that label is now spelled correctly,
& that you used only allowed characters in that label name
--some characters are not allowed, such as '#' ... & make sure the label
is just like, is similar to, all the other similar label bookmarks listed therein in that
particular bookmark list section that comes up. A new/changed
bookmark has now been made; now Save this doc file
before using that new bookmark, & making a link back to
that bookmark.)
(7) Now, begin editing this doc file:
For EACH occurrence of a label name found in doc file, that is to be changed, or, added into the file,
put, write a brief note of what the new label-to-be is, beside the present 'old' one...
you can copy/paste after the first use of that note,
to use else where in this doc...
as in: [ "Photo#3" = #5 ? ]. Question mark not needed, unless in doubt
of the correct contextual use.
(8) Start with the highest numbered item first, & work your way down, or,
up in the list,
in this case... Start at the bottom, which would also be
the last newest item made, which would most likely be used the least in the doc so
far... Greater details are given for specific
bookmarks as listed below...
Re-Naming Photos and/or Folders
Next is the correct procedure for Re-Naming Photos and/or Folders
filenames.
(A)
(A)
(01) Find the following bookmark
link or label
(an item needing changing) for the following item --at its main topic
heading, that is, where the 'dotted underlined'
bookmark is at, in this doc:
"Photo#6"
(02) Now do as follows: put down on
paper, write down, type in (a small
Notepad doc file),
the following line, as to what is to be done...
followed by each step in this particular process.

Laptop Crashed
Laptop
Crashed
Laptop Computer Stopped Working
Of course, as some of you may already know, my laptop gave up the ghost, really stopped working, quit on me, on Saturday,
March 26, 2011. It did
not actually crash on me, but I guess it was the
next thing to it. I'll call it a 'crash' because the system
did what generally happens during a crash: system no longer worked
correctly, no longer would start up & finish booting into
Windows. It finally was going so,
so slow, that it would not even finish booting
up. I tried 3 times right in a row, trying to boot the laptop up, so I
could use it. 3 times I pressed & held the "On" button down, until the
laptop finally turned itself Off, waited a few seconds, then pressed the 'On' button again, to
restart it back
up. This is a NO, NO, (because you are
suppose to tell Windows to shut, close down, & it
will automatically shut everything down, and finally turn off the laptop
all by itself without you touching anything. But how can
you tell Windows to shut down, when you have not yet even
booted into Windows ?? ?? When you are NOT yet in
Windows?? An utterly impossible thing to do!!) But my system never did restart fully each of those
3
times, desktop never fully came up so I could use the laptop, so I had to
press & hold the "On" button until it turned itself OFF. I did this three times
right in a row: turn on, turn OFF the wrong way, turn on, turn OFF, turn on, turn OFF... Laptop never did boot/start up into
Windows, it never fully
loaded Windows, but keep hanging up, it hung up, seemingly stopped working
each time, at an unknown spot in that process. This was taking way too long a time to do; I was wasting
my time doing something that was finally in the end futile, very unproductive.
Whatever the laptop system was doing, it was so slow at doing it,
(over the last few months, it was operating slower, and slower,
in all areas of use.) I was finally able to log on, then the screen
would go black as normal, but it never got to the desktop screen...
I waited & waited, more impatiently each time...
Finally, I thought to myself, This is it; I've had it;
I'm not taking it anymore! ... I finally did what I knew I should have
done many months much earlier --Re-Install the operating system yet again,
another one more time, which
I dread very much in doing; so much stuff could go wrong in that process.
At least, before starting the process of
re-installing the system again, the very minimum you should do, includes backing up
all files & data files to external hard drives, & then removing
ALL external hard drives & USB flash
drives from the laptop, before starting that
process. [I know, from bad experiences in the past! For
example, the time when I only wanted the C:
hard drive partition to be reformatted, & instead,
Windows reformatted
the whole hard drive, which included drive C:,
drive D:, and drive E: partitions
on that hard drive, at that particular time. Oh, very,
very bad... I lost so much stuff that time, for I had my
backup stuff on drive D: & drive E:...
Windows messed up 'big time' that time. I did
not have any external hard drives at that time, nor a second hard
drive in my desktop computer. That was way back in the 'Windows
98' days.] Therefore, I finally, & dreadfully, decided I really had to forget everything
else at that moment, and do
something about it. I dreaded it because it takes such a sooo, so, so long
time to try to get
everything back, to what it was like, that is, to reinstall all the programs that
was on the laptop before the crash. And many times in the past when
re-installing the operating system, I would loose stuff, loose data files,
loose saved email, loose saved Favorites, etc. Even now, I can't find the latest
backup copy of my "Favorites" from
Internet Explorer. And when you do add
'Favorites' back in, there are so many duplicates that you have to go in
& edit out all un-needed ones, which a job. And many former
installed programs
never do get to be re-installed, for various reasons; either I don't
use it much, or there are other similar programs already on my system,
or program is no longer being updated, or just don't need it now, or
I forget what that program was even called, etc.,
Therefore, here goes, I went went ahead & re-booted, restarted
my laptop & pressed the "F8" key
which boots you into "Safe Mode", which did work OK,
(but you can NOT work, use your computer, in 'safe
mode'), and I copied most all my files to
my external hard drive by hand, and after I was satisfied with that, I rebooted
again, & this time, I pressed the "F11" key, which
reformats the C:
hard drive partition, and re-installs everything back to 'factory new
condition', which means how my Compaq
F500 series laptop was, over
4 years ago when I bought it
brand new. That new mint condition included only drive C: &
drive D: on that original small hard drive. Subsequently,
after installing a new larger hard drive, there has been 3 partitions on
the internal hard drive. I had bought a much larger hard drive to replace
the original smaller one, & I divided that new hard drive into
3
partitions: (1) operating system
C: drive, (2) data files
D: drive, & (3) the
automatically made "System Recovery"
E: drive, --on the original
hard dive it was drive D:-- which holds all the
'factory new condition' re-installation files used when you press
"F11" key to reinstall the system; this partition
is automatically created by HP, which made
my Compaq laptop.
Therefore, factory new
condition is not quite true now, since, during the
reinstalling of Windows, the system now never touches the
new D: drive which holds all my data files, for which I'm
truly greatly grateful. [When I first installed
that new larger hard drive, some folks keep telling me that I could not
have that original second partition be put onto that new hard
drive... Well, they were wrong, thankfully. I think I
have it written down somewhere the process I went through to get my present hard
drive the way it now is... I now forget the exact steps I went through,
but after formatting that new hard drive, I divided it into 3
partitions, all this can be done before Windows is
installed, through 'DOS'... Then somehow I
got Windows Vista installed on the new
C: drive, & then somehow copied the original hard
drive D: partition contents to the new
E:
partition, then I pressed the "F11"
key to reinstall hard drive to 'factory new
condition', and it worked as I had hoped it would. My
data drive D: partition was not messed with at all.
I finally felt a great relief in my mind; in the future, pressing
"F11" key would work. Boy, was I glad
and happy!]
Now, in my case this time, I could not use any of
the 'System Restore' files, since I could not even boot
into Windows; I could have used 'Safe Mode', to do
that, but I now wanted to re-install the whole
Windows system again, which in most cases is the best way
to go... since my system was so messed up now. (I have
to do this every so often anyways; & some folks recommend re-installing
everything from scratch every so often, so as to keep the system cleaner,
& free from much collected junk that accumulates over time, & slows the
system down over time.) (If my system was working very good,
& I happen to mess up somewhere, or another program messed up,
I could have used 'System Restore' to get things back to good
working order. But that was NOT the case this time...)
Therefore, after re-installing the whole system back onto my laptop, I had hundreds of
Windows updates to download & reinstall, plus
all my own personal programs to reinstall. Also, had to download all over again many of
the free & shareware programs I used quite often. Also had to download all over
again programs I bought online, and reinstall them again. After every major re-installment
of some
Microsoft
software program, there were a bunch of more new
Windows updates to download &
reinstall. I still don't have a lot of my former programs re-installed yet, but
enough to keep me going for now... As I miss & need them, I hunt for them, and reinstall them. Some of the newest programs I bought online, I'm not sure how to get at them
again without paying for them all over again. I'm looking into saved Emails, user names, and passwords,
which is the way to go about getting those programs back onto my
laptop again, I guess. In the future, always save emails with download
directions and/or Links for downloading the new programs you bought
online in a special separate
'ReInstall' folder on D: hard drive partition,
or on the external hard drive, for future reference. Many times I
save the program's 'install file' in that program's folder in a
special 'Install' subfolder. Sometimes I save those install
files to my external hard drive. I must find a consistent way of saving
those install files so I can reuse them in the future; of course,
many times it is just better to go back online to get the latest version of a program & install that instead, such as AOL, which
updates their program more often; other don't need to update much if at
all, so those types of programs install files can be saved to hard drive
somewhere...
Well, my laptop is almost back to 'normal'... Laptop sure does
indeed run faster now, since the reinstalling of Windows Vista.
But, generally, my laptop is now way too slow, for all that I do with
it, since it is way outdated, being over 4 years old; that is,
the laptop itself, its hardware is outdated, its motherboard is out
of date when compared to the newest laptops in use now a days. I can
especially notice the slowness of my laptop with respect to Internet
usage. Since I now have EPB Fiber Optics Internet Service
with 30 down & 30 up, that service is much faster then my laptop is able
to handle at times; some pictures, for example, are downloaded,
then a few seconds later the picture shows up on screen. My laptop has
trouble keeping up with all that download speed. Of course,
uploading to the church website is now very fast. The laptop's
motherboard's built-in Graphics Card is an old 61oo series,
and I can have only 2 gig memory max on the motherboard.
I need a very much faster graphics card, and 12 - 16 + gigs of memory.
That way everything would perform faster, with no slow data
swapping to and from the hard drive & memory, as it is now.
Some of my files are 2 - 3 times the size of present memory, so there is
way too much disk swapping going on, which slows everything down to a
crawl at times. Everything in/on the laptop needs updating,
upgrading. And of course, I want USB3, &
e-sata external port connections, plus all the newest
connections coming out... And solid state hard drives are
now out on the market, which probably would be nearly as fast as memory is
in a laptop. I want a much larger monitor screen on the laptop, & a larger
keyboard with a good number pad, & room inside of laptop for
2 hard
drives. Money, money, money! Well, dreams! It is now
4/7/2011, very early Thursday morning. And still working on this doc
file... Photos still not ready to be emailed.
A few weeks after re-installing Windows Vista
back on my laptop, I got a notice that I had to
Activate Windows... Last time I did this,
I had to call HP, &
Microsoft to get this resolved... This time I
was able to do it online, since nothing had changed within my laptop.
One of the last times, I had put in more memory, & a larger
hard drive; which, or this, at times makes Microsoft
might think it is a new laptop that I'm installing the system onto, in
which case, I would be having 2 computers, but since it was to
the same laptop, meant I still only had
1 laptop. Online programming can't tell the difference,
so had to
talk to a live person by phone to get it
resolved.
{This part was at
Folder #01
section.}
Folder #01
in camera, is really the ORIGINAL file folder where all the photos were saved to
originally; then have to copy/Move them from this
Folder #01
on my camera, to a folder on my laptop
Folder #02, in order to begin to work with
the photos/folders.
The
camera memory stick card --a file/folder storage area, which is treated as a hard drive-- can be read
directly from the camera by plugging in an USB cable from camera to laptop, in
order to
copy photo files to laptop. Or, it --camera memory stick card, can be taken out of
camera, and put into a 'card reader' in order to copy the photo files from
it to laptop... Can that folder be reNamed ? ?? Can more folders be added, made to the card
? ??
The Sony Camera has a built-in program to
do many things, but I have not studied it, or looked at the
Instructions book, to see what is available to use, in the
processing of the photos... Maybe I should do that some day!
A photo taken with my
Sony Camera automatically
saves as a photo file name on the camera
memory card stick. Each photo taken makes & saves a new filename. Never do
long-term storage of photo filenames on camera memory card sticks. Always
Move/copy them to my laptop hard drive into a definite folder, the name of which
that will be easy to remember. I have 2, now
3 folders on my laptop for camera photos:
"D:\!__New_Pictures_from_Camera" for misc use, &
"D:\!__Working_ON_Church" for church photos, both of them on the hard
drive
D: partition in the top level position, that is, they are
some main top folders in D:.
(I could make a third folder on my laptop with the
same folder name as in my Sony Camera storage area memory card, & then move
them from camera & paste into that folder... Just to keep track of everything, just for
completeness in naming, copying/moving/pasting file names around...

on the link, & watch it do its thing: it
finds & goes to the place where the bookmark
is at, and, the bookmark itself highlights up.
Since there is no
'Back' feature in the program, ... if you want to go back to
where you was at in the program, you must make another bookmark & link, which is
another story altogether, not going into the details on how to do that here:
just see the [Note #01] above as an example.
To go
'back' in the EW4 program, you
MUST remember the place where you were at, before you

Introduction:
Introduction
Remember, this document file is basically
only for my own personal benefit
--for
Bernard's good, his remembrance, his memory reminders only,
for my very own use only--. Sorry for all the
ramblings, & rabbit trails, off shoots, too long sentences, paragraphs,
left-out implied words --I'm thinking faster then I can write, type..., etc., in this doc file, that I'm making,
putting together. As different, new
ideas keep coming to me, as I keep re-reading this doc, I jot, write them down here in this doc file,
therefore the
presentation flow is not always in a
logical
manner, if you read from top to bottom; that is
why I use hyperlinks at times to tie similar things together. In time
hopefully, this doc
file may become more organized, but first, I myself even
must try to
discover
the proper way of doing things, which right now, when I was
first starting this document, I do/did
NOT
know, let alone trying
to get everything in its proper order the first --second,
third, fourth, or even the fifth time around... I don't care if you
do think I'm a dumb-bell, a moron, for all this 'talk-talk' seemingly getting me
nowhere at all fast. Mind
you now, in this document, I keep repeating myself many times on purpose, at some
times in just a slightly different manner, all so that I can finally
remember, get it all down on paper -- that is, on a 'computer paper',
in a computer document file, --
exactly
how to do all of this editing stuff... Trying to
sort
this
all out, so as to do it in a correct order, give a
step-by-step ordered
numbered way of doing the same thing, over & over again. Some times I get
part way through in doing something, then I think of a different, or, of a better way of
doing (saying, writing) what I'm trying to do; so this doc file has to reflect those changes
also, at
all times, which is not easy to do, or maintain. As time goes
by, I'm beginning to see how the many things that must be done
fit
together
as a whole. I'm beginning to see the many steps in a
clearer
light. Many of the 'broader
steps', in the beginning stages of
typing this out, when looking back on the process, when reviewing
it, when going over the steps so far, are/must
be
divided into smaller,
more detailed, specific steps; some of the steps were left out
completely, not even thought about yet. But as I keep going over the
steps, everything is beginning to make more
sense, the
relationship
between all the folders & all the photos,
is becoming clearer & clearer in my mind. I've even renamed
the different folders at times to reflect what that folder is really
used for, &
have refined all the descriptions of the folders & photos. The process is not
an easy one, nor just
a one time deal, & then it's done, finished; this
whole process must be done many times, on
many different
sets of photos. It must be
done in this particular ordered way, in order to have
consistency
among all the
photos.
I know this is all way too
wordy, but I'm trying to come up with a 'template', or, a general
standard,
a standard operating procedure, an
outline, of doing a
complex
procedure, etc. I'm trying to come up with the correctly ordered steps to
do in this process, so I can do it today, next week, and
next year, what ever,
and
still
have the
same outcome each time I do it.
And to have the whole procedure still make sense to me, & to still know
why
I happen to do something in a
particular way, instead of some another way. I did not know it was going to be so complex,
until I saw the vast differences in the filename sizes, when I was first beginning to tackle this job. So I'm trying to explain things to
myself, in order to remember it all in the future, have a template to go by,
etc. The specific order of things will be determined as I go
along, as I first move the photo file names
from my camera to my
laptop hard drive, as I start to edit the first photo... The
3
renamings of the
original raw default
Sony Camera photo filename was the start... In the final end, I
want the photos to be as small as possible in size, yet look very good on paper,
and/or, look very good on the website. (I'm NOT
posting, uploading, any of the
photos to the church website just jet, unless otherwise directed to, by Rev. Brad.
{See: Website Posting of Pictures Notice, or what
ever it is called, somewhere on church
website. Find that link, & put it here. ??}) Basically, all I want to do is this: to
start
the
process, & let each couple
finish
the job. That is, I provide all/some of
the necessary photos --all the original photos, & some
processed photos--, & let them decide what to do with
those photos... keep
asis, or, edit further with their own picture editors, if they know how
to do it, etc. ... Some of the following instructions, directions, are not in the
right order, or, part of it is/was correct/incorrect, then another part at the end, or whatever, is a repeat of some part, which is,
then may be out of order... Trying to fix this, but it takes time... Oh well.
basic computer stuff;

stuff
[Even now, in many of the steps, I assume you
'know' how to do many of the 'basic computer
stuff', such as 'open' the
'Computer' or 'Windows Explorer'
programs, & then to 'navigate'
to a certain folder, in order to
view the contents therein
--list of filenames-- of some file folder on your computer system,
or, how to use the
mouse buttons, etc. I just hope
I'm not assuming too much, for some folks who are
new
to the ways of
computing. You have to learn by 'trial &
error';
you have to actually 'do' the stuff, &
not just 'read' about the stuff. You
have to get 'hands-on' experience.]

beginning of doc, where the colors somehow changed...}
{Above text color = black; below = blue; supposed to be all
black,
unless otherwise done...
There are many other internal 'mistakes' in the HTML code part, for which I do
not know how to fix right now, or, it would take too long to fix at this moment. There are many coding inconsistencies, internal coding is too bloated,
in which case many code stuff is repeated too many times, it could be
combined at times; the code could be much 'lighter',
... I must learn CSS, so all of this writing/coding will look better.}
Picture Viewer
--IrfanView
Picture Viewer --IrfanView
IrfanView: picture viewer/editor program, &
it also does simple photo editing: R = Rotate Right
IrfanView is my default main picture/photo/graphics
viewer; this is a free download program for you to use:
their website is
http://www.irfanview.com/. Other photo editing programs can be used of course, such as expensive ones like "Adobe Photoshop CS5", or less expensive ones, or freeware, or shareware programs; but each program works a little differently, names things a little differently, & saves files a little differently, and the file saved sizes very a lot also. Each
'option'
chosen changes the saved file size a little or a lot, depending on all the options used for that particular filename when it is saved in a new different
filename. What I give below,
that is, the information on each photo given, is only approximately, that is, it is what I get at the moment of saving a file... What you get
might be different, what I get next time might be different; I want to find a safe, easy, consistent way of doing it so all photos will be very similar, especially for photos
uploaded & posted on the website; they must be small enough to
download quickly, yet be in as high a quality
as possible... Right now the
photos on
the website are very inconsistent; I want the photos I send to Tracy to be consistent in all things...
When a photo is going through, is being worked with, is being
changed, edited in some way, & has gone through, a picture editor program, it becomes "processed", even if nothing was done, except to
flip the photo right-side-up, because the file "size" changes when saved, depending on
options chosen (or even just using the default settings
--in which case, you may realize what the options are, or you may
not know what the options
are, or you may not have paid any attention to those things in the past, but now
you MUST pay attention to those tiny little details that make a lot of
differences in file sizes saved on a hard drive) when saving
that file to a new different filename... I was surprised to see such a vast difference in file sizes...
I had never paid any attention to such stuff in the past, which is why pictures
on the website are/were so hap hazard looking at times... Sorry folks. Will do
better next time as I learn all this new stuff that I'm reading & studying
about.
So, ALWAYS keep the original photo file asis, even if the content
of the photo is flipped on its side when picture was taken, because of how the camera itself was orientated
--long ways --horizontal, or, tall ways --vertical: when camera is in vertical position, pictures are sideways when viewing original
raw photo file asis. You have to "flip them
to the right" to be in the correct viewing position.
[similar terms]

Only COPY
a copy of the original file to use it;
NEVER
use the ORIGINAL file to make changes to
that original photo... This folder
Folder #02 contains all of the
79 original
photo files
79 Photos along with
their original raw default Sony Camera photo filenames --which are
one &
the same ... [Not really of course, but in actuality, for all practical
purposes, all such similar terms refer to the same thing, the
photo itself. (see:
Note #03)]
To see such a vast difference in filename sizes, is what prompted me to
start this document
in the first place, by
trying to state, in a step-by-step manner,
how to do this whole thing; I was stumped, perplexed,
'stopped in my tracks', as how to further proceed in this process of re-doing the photos. I wanted to reduce the total file size, but
not in the way that I was going at that moment in time...
Therefore, I need/needed to learn exactly how to 'ReSave' a filename properly --that is,
how to
'rename' the filename properly, come up with an easily remembered way of
adding the different symbols {{See below at how/what the symbols means, & how
they are added into the filename properly.
What's In 'Edited' Photo Name}} in a consistent way into the filename, so as to
be able to tell what is going on in it, with that
particular photo, and how to
reduce
the size of the photo properly. In the past, for the most part,
I've never paid any attention to the file size of any photos I was
working with. I just flipped them, reduce them some, made thumbnails, and
then copied/uploaded those pictures to the website, really in just a hap hazard
manner. (Sometimes I wrote down what I did, but then lost the information; so
the next time invariably I did it differently, etc. Now, I'm keeping track
of how it is all done, in this
document, & in a similar one, for future references.) I really never liked the way some of the photos looked, nor
liked the inconsistency of how even thumbnails photos looked. But now
I have to get more 'professional' in doing this job. Get on
the Internet to find common photo sizes, & how to reduce my large photos down to proper
'paper' sizes: 10 x 8, 6 x 4, etc. & to proper web size photos. My
Sony
Camera takes 5.1 mega pixels
photos, which is quite large, & makes file sizes real big, too large
to download & display quickly in a browser, which, in the raw state, is at
times much larger then my laptop screen. Internet Explorer, in
the past, has always, reduces the size of the picture to fit the screen, so you
don't know, realize exactly how big the photo is, unless you tell
Internet Explorer not to 'fit to screen' --or what ever that setting is called,
in which case, you have to scroll left/right,
[which is a real hassle] &/or, up/down,
[which is easy to do with the mouse 'scroll wheel'] in order to view the whole picture
in sections as you scroll...
Read-Only
Read-Only
Photo #5 Change
Make these folders,
Folder #02, &
Folder #06 "Read-Only"; all
other folders/files not "Read-Only"; I believe this
is the right way to set the files properties...
HOW DONE:
Right-click a folder name, choose Properties: in pop-up window > General tab > find
Attributes: > check [or, uncheck]
'Read-only (Only applies to files in folder)' > OK.
Concerning above 2 paragraph notes: maybe just set the
4 original filenames to
"Read-Only" in the
Couple's Personal Folder,
subfolder
Folder #09. I'm
not sure at this moment in time just how to go about doing this, or, if it even needs
to be done in the first place... I have to see how the files behave with me as I try to edit the right filenames, the right photos... Maybe just Read-Only the first
4 photos --which will never be
used in any kind of editing anyways, & with the fourth photo (transformed into the fifth photo), they/I will be working with, have
that photo be
not Read-Only,
so they won't have to fiddle with the properties settings of a filename. Maybe just
make a 5th photo, with the word 'COPY' in front of 4th photo, name, to make that
into a 5th photo, which is not read-only, & which is the
ONLY photo filename that
everybody must work with... My, my! More complicated, more work, more total photos!
But 'whatever it takes' to work for me, probably will work for others
also, only with slight
modifications along the way... So, "Photo #5
= {WAS} #4 NOW = becomes Photo#5",
& must bump-up the number on all the rest of the photos using in this series of
photos... More work, even harder to keep track of...! Oh well, that's life! Ever
re-defining things for the better, hopefully.
{see:
Photo #5 Change}
This new photo #5, is different
from the Photo #5, listed on down in this doc... [Is this part right?
Yes, I believe, so far... Are the numbers correct so far??]
[I don't know yet, I have not gone over the 'photo numbers' recently;
all the 'folder numbers' are now all OK, --9 folders total now.] [Can
NOT have 2 photos by same name, so old photo05,
becomes new photo06, old photo06, becomes new photo07,
etc.]
[Isn't "Photo #5", really, the Re-Named
Photo #4,
with "Copy_" added to the start of
Photo #4 filename ? ??
[YES] Isn't it the photo used at "Photo #5" place in this doc
file ? ?? [NO, no] I believe it is
[NOT], but I have to go thorough this all over again, by actually
doing the work, by
following all the steps made so far, as I go along, testing the correctness of the steps in the doc
file, as I rename, resize a photo...]
[So, there will be '5' 'original' photos
--photo filenames; 1 original name, &
4 reNamed ones--; and only 'photo #5'
is the only photo anyone will be working with when
in any kind of editing of that photo. That is, keep re-using photo #5,
to make changes to that photo...] {HOW that photo #5, is
made, transformed from
Photo #4, into Photo #5, could be
done in 2 different ways... (1) by me at the beginning of the process, or
(2) at what is called step #5, ??, which is at the old Photo #5, place below...
Number (1) probably is the best way to go, then just keep re-using that photo
over and over again whenever needed...]
[This is funny; Notice: The more I talk about photo #05, the
more sure I am, that I will have to make a 'new' photo #05,
& bump up all the other photos numbers... Yep, that is what I'll
probably do next, or should do next, before doing any more
'step-making'. But, for now, I just may edit some more in this
doc, since I'm not up to the 'Photos' section yet...]
As of right now, 3/23/2011, Wednesday morning, I'm only sure of the first
4,
--now up to 5, photos, --Photo #1, Photo #2,
Photo #3, Photo
#4, &
Photo #5 , which are
all the same photo,
which is only
4 different re-SAVED filenames
for the same photo. The first 4 filenames I will never touch,
nor edit,
--Photo #1,
Photo #2, Photo #3, &
Photo #4-- they are for reference purposes only. Only the fifth one,
--Photo #3
= #5, will I use to start playing with, FIRST by making a 'COPY' of it, to edit, change, etc., but only in as I have written
about in this place below somewhere
(probably at Photo #05, place)... I will only keep re-using Photo #3,
= #5 when making changes to it, when editing it in some way... But NEVER edit "Photo #3"
=#5 ? itself, edit only a 'copy' of it, "Photo #3"
= #5 ?. Copy, load Photo #5, into photo editing program to edit
it, then properly save it --"Save As..."-- as a
new different processed finished photo filename. Then copy, load Photo
#5, again into photo editing program to do other things to it, then save it
again under a new different filename. Keep doing this particular process
over & over,
until you have all the photos you want, and/or are satisfied with the
outcome of a finished photo.
Remember, copy/load the Photo #5, into a photo editing program to make changes
to that photo, BUT, TAKE NOTICE OF THIS FACT:
NEVER save/resave that photo #5, under the same filename
again, using the same filename as is in Photo #5. This means,
that a newly edited, changed photo
MUST ALWAYS BE ReNAMED
TO A NEW DIFFERENT FILENAME..., you
must actually make some change in that
filename itself. You must never just press the
short-cut keys, 'Ctrl-S' on keyboard to save
that new file name; instead, do as follows.
Instead, do this: (and there is no
'short-cut keys' on keyboard to press for 'Save As',
therefore,) you must always move
your mouse pointer cursor to the Menu
bar, & Click on 'File',
then click on 'Save As...'
from the drop-down menu. This opens the 'Save As'
dialog box, into which you make CHANGES
in that old filename --that's already filled in
for you--, which therefore, after you make changes
to that filename, makes a new,
different filename to save. Must always do
that, or Photo #5, is destroyed, forever lost,
never to be recovered again. [Of course, if you still have the
first 4 photo filenames, you can transform, copy,
rename photo #4, into a Photo #5, again... There also is
an extra Photo #5, in your subfolder...]
Re-Arranging Folders Names in This Doc
Re-Arranging Folders
(This part has nothing to do with the actual re-naming, &
further processing of the photos. Rather, this section
of detailed instructions, has to do with the
re-organization
of the Folder names, & of the
Photo names used in this document, by literally
moving different sections of this doc around
some to new places in this document. It has to do with
the refining, clarifying, of the needed numbered ordered
steps, in order to process the photos. And it has to do with
making the steps more detailed, as the whole process becomes more clearer
& clearer in my mind, as to:
What do I do next?
How do I do it?
I need to do something else
first,
don't I? Some step is missing --What is it?
The 'how to' part was sometimes left off,
or there was another step to do (that I had not thought of yet),
before taking that present step that I was in the process
of doing, etc. This is a new process for me,
so the steps are constantly being re-defined, as I go through this process
from start to finish, that is, as I re-start many times in
this process of finding the needed steps in this photo editing procedure. This section is a consequence
of the re-dividing of the steps into smaller needed detailed
steps, that I had not even thought of when I first started
this project over a month ago... Today now is: 4:37 PM
4/25/2011. Well, it is now: 3:54 PM,
5/20/2011. Time really flies by way too fast...)
Moving the folders names, as listed in this doc, around some physically,
re-arranging the contents of this
file, (as listed, as placed in a physical manner, order in this doc file) so as to be in the correct order of
use.
Other
words, the folder names are numbered wrongly asis, not on purpose of
course, but as the process became clearer, & more folders were
added right between existing ones, I had to re-number the folder names & photo names also... (Someday reNumber the folders correctly
as listed in this corrected ordered list. Must keep reviewing each folder number & photo
number in its
proper context & use, so as to correctly re-name each occurrence of that folder
name or photo name, in this doc file. It will become more complicated as time
goes on, so the sooner it is done, the better & faster it will get done.
I'm in the process of doing that right now... I
guess do it in this manner: next to the old original folder name or photo name, put the new revised file name, but also, if you come up with a
same number name
just like another name (& you will at times), somehow show whether that
'same number name' is old or, new.
(I did not do this last
part when renaming the folders the first time around, so I had 2 sets of "Folder #4", and one other
duplicate folder set. And when actually physically renaming the folders, I lost
track, at times,
of what old name was what what new name, of what was what, so I have to pay closer attention as I read, & re-read this
doc, & make revisions at those particular places in this doc.) So before changing anything yet, must also put
beside each original name, if it is an old original name, or, a new one due to the
addition, moving around of the folders, & the consequential renaming of
many of the other folders... Do this for each occurrence, & keep track of what
you are doing at all times. Study this so as to come up with the proper revised
file names for each 'folder' and each 'photo' in use in this doc file. ...
(The Folders file names are now all done! As far as I
know right now, only the Photo #05 item needs messing with,
then, I guess, everything will be corrected. Then I can
go through & test the steps made so far, & then start
making new steps, that is, continue on with the next steps that need
to be made, until I'm finally all done.) Always START way down in any list with the
newest, highest numbered item, & work your
way up in the list to the oldest, smallest numbered item... Of course, by
doing this there will be 2 or more names with the same number at
times; so must keep
track of which is the old, original number name, & which is the
newest number name, & before, as, while going through doc, note beside each
occurrence whether if it is the old name, so it can be renamed correctly later
on, &/or, if it is the newer new name that is like the old one ...
Also, I noticed, in relation to above paragraph, and from starting in the
middle of someplace (in regards to the 'Photo numbers' which are now done
re-numbering, hopefully; no, not quite done, Photo #05,
area needs working on), it became apparent that this, what I was doing, was a wrong way to go, which I noticed only after I
started to re-bookmark items, that I was going in the wrong direction --I was
starting at Photo #4, and was going to work myself on down to Photo#6, etc.,
(the first 3 items was named correctly & didn't need changing) but
that way was messing up #5 & #6..., so, always
start with the highest numbered photo --in this case Photo #6, and work up
toward Photo #4..., and/or also do the same with the folders, in the re-naming of them. That
way, there is much less backtracking to fix the so called updating of
unintentionally made mistakes. Well, I guess this is true, but you see, there
also is messing up of things going this way too. See notes that was in
Notepad for more information:
How To ReName Photos. (Those informational directions would also apply when re-naming the
folders in
their correct order that they are listed in this doc file, which
is the order in which each folder is used in the editing
of the photos. For those folders
certainly need to be renamed correctly; they --the folder names-- are out
of order as of now..., but they are listed, placed in the correct listing order, as to
which is used first, second, etc. in the correct order... as it is listed,
stated, in each folder's
sub-title, which gives the numbered order to use,
and which also tells what the folder is for, or how used, and below
that is the hard drive folder filename... & then instructions on using that
folder.)
Even when some minor improvement is made in this doc file, keep,
save the original
directions for that improvement, &, document how, & what was
done, etc. & keep those directions finally in a new file doc, or, put
them at the bottom of this doc file as future
reference footnotes, or whatever...,
& link back to the original spot where they were
first at.
Anyways, save all instructions in this doc
file for future use, in how things were done, &
why... so I can use them again when the need arises,
& maybe modify the directions some if
needed. Or, apply these general principles to
new situations as they become apparent in the
future.
This is how I am ordering, listing the folders numbers & photos
numbers; & in the correct order
in which I will use them in this informational/instructional document. This is
my system of doing
all this 'photo-editing' processing procedures. Your
system may be a little different, but most likely similar to mine. Whatever
works for you is OK. This is working OK with me so far; changes in this doc file
is taking place all the time as I refine the 'telling of it', but the
actual working system
itself will change very little, if at all, when it is finally put in place to
use. The system may be in place long before the wording in this doc file is in
the final version. Maybe, maybe not.
