Being Framed Can Be Fun
By Linda Amstutz on
Santa (my grown kids) brought me a digital photo frame this year.My collection of grandchildren's photos was threatening to bury me. The photos that covered every square inch of my house - my walls, my refrigerator, my windows - now is contained inside this one digital frame, which shuffles the photos it displays, playing no favorites. Which is more than I can say for most grandmas.
The 8 inch LCD frame displays the photos beautifully. It's easy to use. I loaded photos from my camera card and a memory stick. I can load photos from my computer, if I want. I made a file on my computer called FRAME and filled it with photos from my camera cards and scanned in from Christmas cards. I then copied that file folder to a memory stick and inserted it into the back of the frame. I turned on the frame, grabbed my remote control, (everything is manipulated with that fun, little remote control) and I instructed the frame which photos I wanted it to Save to its 128 mb memory. Then I pushed the remote control one more time and instructed the frame to display the photos in a slide show.
I can also play music, if I want, on the frame and I can display digital movies, like the one I took of Ensley reading "Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?" This digital frame is the next best thing to having my grandkids over for a visit.
I so want one of these! Thanks for all the great info!
You can play music on the frame?! I love it! And you're right-no more playing favorites with the pictures since they're randomly shuffled!!!!
This is absolutely cool! And such a space saver!
Now I really regret I didn't buy one of these while in UK last year. It sure looks cool and nice.
I think that the digital photo frames are very nice. Thanks for sharing.
I have a digital photo frame, but mine doesn't play music. :-(
I've been looking at these for a while and would really like to purchase one for my mom. But, I'll have to wait for the prices to come down a bit.
A digital photo frame is on my wishlist. Thank you for sharing.
Always looked at these but never bought one, I may change my mind now.
A good one to try at home. I haven't tried this sort of photo framing yet. It is attractive and have some appealing features. Thanks for sharing.
