iLife ’05<\/a> is fantastic. Especially the new version of iPhoto – I’ve been obsessively compiling pictures of Carolyn into albums and books since I installed it last night. I think maybe for Christmas this year we might splurge and get keepsake albums for Carolyn’s grandparents that have pictures from her first year. That is, if I can somehow manage to keep it under the 100-page limit. Just for her first three months I have a 38 page album! (It’s really hard to leave things out!)<\/p>\n

<photo-snob rant> I ordered a whole bunch of prints through iPhoto. I hope they turn out well – I’ve been having trouble getting good prints, which is ridiculous when you realize that they are 6 megapixel images. Ofoto seems to oversaturate the colors, although at least they don’t introduce image artifacts. I got a handful printed at Target the other day just to see what they’d be like, and they look as though I took them with the cheapest digital camera ever made. In several, Carrie’s cheeks and lips are an alarming (and pixelated) red. And they weren’t retouched in any way – just the jpeg files direct from the camera. I had to bite my tongue when the photo counter guy and a randomly passing employee were gushing over how good the prints looked. If I still worked at Kodak I’d be ashamed to see my company’s name on the back of those prints. <\/photo-snob rant><\/p>\n

Anyway, iPhoto ’05 is fantastic, and if you have a mac and a digital camera, it’s worth buying even if you don’t use any of the other programs. (Although I do intend to play around with iDVD one of these days…)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
