    Frame or Mounting Image

    Personally I'd crop a bit off the left making the tree areas pretty much the same. I'd also crop a bit of the top. I'd also darken the background a tad to make it pop, just a personal thing of course. As to frame a thin white beveled mat.

    Anyone know Lenovo Ideapads

    Hi Delia, Once you use a second monitor for a while you start to wonder how you ever survived with just one :) You can have all sorts of things open on it, like phrase express, saves digging it out from under the document you are working on all the time. The suggestions for an SSD are for your...

    Anyone know Lenovo Ideapads

    Personally I like Lenovo, have never had problems with them. Unlike Dell that seem to be a personal nemesis. I'm guessing your looking at this. http://www3.lenovo.com/us/en/laptops/ideapad/ideapad-300-series/ideapad-300-15ISK/p/80Q70021US#tab-tech_specs Looks fine. Add a second monitor and a usb...

    83x anyone? The new Nikon P900

    Problem solved Very few cameras would ever arrive with even a partially charged battery. I'd be real "interested" in a cameras history if one arrived with a charged one. Words in books mean little.

    83x anyone? The new Nikon P900

    I don't know your specific battery but it can take a few cycles through the battery to get it to hold a charge correctly. Charge it fully Fully discharge it ie watching the idiot box an taking pics of your foot will do. Do this 3 or 4 times, watch how many shots you get each time. If your still...

    Current best bridge camera for birds

    Grando, I used the sx50 with a Reynox DCR 250 for shooting moths in the field with no problems. Put chdk on it for the superfine jpeg option, or shoot raw. It makes not to bad a portable macro rig. But of course does have a small sensor. http://naturewatch.org.nz/projects/moths-of-travis-wetland

    corrupted CF card - help desperately wanted!

    Good to see you got the images back Steve. Corrupt cards are never fun. For others that find this. Recuva works well https://www.piriform.com/recuva Use the free version. I know this sounds counter intuitive but if all else has failed reformat the card in the camera and then try the recovery...

    Phrase Express

    Hi Delia, Open Phrase Express, have a look under the File menu item (upper left). There is an option there to set a password. One of the options there is to prompt for pw on program start, it seems to be ticked by default. Have a play there you may somehow have saved a blank pw, though I...

    search files

    Niels, If you mean search the text inside a pdf then DocFetcher can do this http://docfetcher.sourceforge.net/en/index.html It needs a bit of time to index everything the first time you run it. It's a good app. If you just want a big improvement over the windows search then try Everything...
