Cursed CDs

[aggienaut]

   So I'm taking an into to digital photography class at the local JC. For our final project we need to print out a picture in at least 8 x 10. Apparently it can be any picture we've taken so.. I have options. I've narrowed it down to approximately still too many pictures. Feedback on which one to go with would be appreciated.

   Whichever I go with, thinking of mounting it on white matte on black matte, ie to create my trademark white and black border (: (just for you Phil haha)


Totally Unrelated Picture of the Day


   Sorry for the huge size, photo class has inspired me to experiment resizing photos down less.

   I think the picture looks better with the out of focus foreground bees cropped out but.. they're so cute.


Technical Difficulties
   Some pictures I'm considering, such Gavel of Justice are previous to any pictures I have on this computer (in the latter case by only a few days). So I was looking for old CDs of photos to get the original full size from.
   A CD from 2004 didn't appear to read anymore ("0 bytes used of 0 available"), but what's worse, it won't eject from my computer!! So now I can't investigate other CDs. I'm a bit concerned -- I hope I manage to convince it to eject this CD ): (I'm crossing my fingers that once I reset my computer maybe it'll do it)

Ah, it just dawned on me that you're probably referring to a laptop, which I still think would have a manual override. Laptops are too high falutin' for me, and the Mrs. has her's with her at class so I can't refer to it to see if I actually know what the hell I'm talkin' about. I take it rebooting didn't help.

Haven't gotten around to rebooting yet. I'm usually doing multiple things at once and leaving something I'm working on in the middle whenever I leave my laptop, so I don't often get around to closing down everytihng at once to reset. But I guess I ought to do that tonight to see if rebooting will help.

The Mrs' laptop has no such mechanical override on it either, but then, it's a mac. PC's have top secret internal buttons, Macs have erogenous zones.
