I took pictures of the better ones. I can take better pictures now that I just figured out how to turn the flash off on my camera. I had the camera for a year too. I think I know almost everything about how to use the camera I have now and I didn't read the directions for it. Now if I only had a way to upload pictures. Maybe if the one of the computers downstairs go into my sister's room I can upload then. Unless I end up buying a computer by then.
