Monday 6 February is an exciting meeting, with Jasmine talking about FaceBook, and Brian and Ruth demonstrating how to back up your Outlook address book and e-mails, then showing how to sharpen up your photos with Photoshop Elements. The photos from the Xmas meeting are here. Russell's photos from 2 May 2011 are here (click). On Monday 4 April, Yvonne astounded and amazed her friends with Windows Media. After m/t Lynette re-visited Cleaning Up Your E-mails. Don't forget, a summary of this talk is already on the website here. Janice's Tips for Touch Typing are now available here. Print it off and retain. On Monday 27 September 2010, we visited Northlakes High School for a demonstration of educational technology by Russell's son, Warren. It was a fascinating insight into the technical improvements in education, the benefits of the Education Revolution, and the nature of children today and how they cope with these advances. Thanks very much, Warren! Previously there was a special meeting where Sheila used Photoshop Elements 4 to repair old photos. Sheila has been doing wonders with Elements 4 adding missing people to group photos. Just remember this - magnetic lassoe, paste into selection, image/transform/free transform. Thanks for that Sheila! George showed us how to stitch together photos taken in a series, to create a panorama of seamless scenery. See the photo on the Home Page. Danny demonstrated the free image-editing program Irfanview, and showed you how to get it (Google and download it). Don't forget, if you receive any dodgy-looking e-mails or unlikely stories, check 'em out at Hoax-Slayer here. All known myths and hoaxes catered for. Lynette gave a talk on Appropriate Handling of E-mails. This talk is available here. Please have a read of this page if you send and receive e-mails.
