random DIM slideshow

clicker here for a slide show Unfortunately, it opens in the "Photobucket" window with ads etc, because that's where i created it susan and or kevin if you have thoughts on how to get it to open in its own window i'd be interested i tried using the gadget link but it wouldn't take anyway--since no one else is participating yet, (mo, your one measly comment does not really count) i'll keep it going. I just spent about an hour on the phone with nicky--she is trying to get on, but blogger won't recognize her username I think she now has about 4 new google accounts cause we kept trying to create them. . . susan. . .HELP! Maureen is headed here on the 20th with Brendan for his return to school. We are planning a "cemetery run" through poughkeepsie and barrytown. . . probably on thursday or friday. Anyone want to glom on? C'mon folks--get blogging--or at least commenting shannon, i know you're out there. . . you can post too--what's happening with the mahoney's of 7 highview? Kevin, i'm disappointed. I thought for sure you'd blog on just for old time's sake. Kathy, i expect you will be reading this in about 2010. . . unless Todd gets you here. . .Todd. . . you out there? Let's go people. . DIM is not an isolated event. . it's a state of mind. Be DIM or be stupid. . .m

hey--ok TWO measly comments
yes--i love the photobucket enhancements--but i can't figure out how to post the slideshow in the side column or at least have it just open in a window that doesn't have a bunch of ads attached
oh well
post something!
take a picture of you and B getting ready for your trip

How did you do all those special effects in the slideshow? I need those arrows, etc for the DIM movie. BTW, these are not measly comments. They are concise and meaningful. HA HA HA. It is just that I am blogging between other tasks. Have to go again...

Unfortunately, they are in photobucket--and what i have discovered is that once i create the slide show in photobucket i can't save it out of there--viewing requires linking back

you may be able to figure out how

i am sure we can purchase stuff like that--it's basically animated clip art
i'll dig around on line and ask designers here

Glad you like the slide show---i had a lot of fun with the "embellishments" It's kind of like scrapbooking, Kristin
Kevin--i think your video with the joke with betty is more entertaining though
I'll bet you never thought that would be captured for the whole family to view and re-view and hear over and over again. . . aren't you glad i had my cell phone video going that morning?
