Up for a challenge


Up for a challenge
Originally uploaded by fayeriggsbee
In case you are wondering....I am "learning" flicker, a new camera, how to make a mosaic and the new layout for blogger posts all at the same time....Thats a bit much for someone my age!~~  But, bear with me as I learn....I just wanted to see if this mosaic would link up correctly....And, it looks like it did...

Now, I need the Tylenol bottle as this is WAAAYY too much techy stuff for me to absorb so quickly....

PS: Thanks Nicole for your Tech Support~~




Here are 12 of my 15 WIP's for the Up for a challenge 2011...Wish me luck~~~

    Sounds like you are "up for a challenge" in more ways than one! LOL! That's a lot to learn, but your mosaic looks fabulous. Love all of your WIPs and will look forward to seeing them on your blog.

    Good luck on your WIPs! Your lightning needles will have them finished in no time. :)

    I want to learn how to do a mosaic on Flickr too. It would probably just push me over the edge today. I have to be in the right frame of mind (and have a chunk of time) to learn a new blog/technical skill. It just does not come naturally!

    Great WIPS! :)

    I can't handle learning that much new stuff all at once anymore. My brain needs to dump some things in order to make room for the new stuff, lol!
    Your WIP look fantastic! Good luck with the challenge.

    Good luck on the WIPs. You'll have those stitched up and finished in no time.

    Wow, you've got some really gorgeous projects there!

    Maybe once you become a pro at Flickr you could teach me? :) I need to get my photos organized in 2011 - that is my challenge!

    I hear you on the mosaics. I know there's a lot more that I can do, but it's so time-consuming! Love all your projects and your mosaic too.

    Oh that is terrific...I so want to learn how to do this, but your mention of it being high tech gives me the shivers, since I am NOT that at all! But I will give it a go sometime soon, since yours is so lovely!

    Good for you and Thanks!

    Happy New Year Faye! Can't wait to see you again - soon, I hope!! You might want to try Picasa 3 too. It's free and I do all of my photo editing, etc., in it. I can upload to anywhere for photo processing or to my blog. It is EXTREMELY easy.

    Ohhhhh...that mosaic is very well done. A beautiful way to show your talent!
    Masterchief and I have been putting pictures on Flickr since...oh gosh...2004 maybe? Maybe earlier. It's a great way to share our life here in Kentucky with friends and family back home.

    I like seeing flicker on people's blogs but I don't think I could figure it out.

    Faye,

    You have inspired me to try to learn to use Flicker. Luckily I have a daughter who I can use to hopefully teach me. I am very computer challenged. Your blog looks good too:)

    Faye, you have some wonderful WIPs. Such great designs, so the WIP challenge is just perfect for finishing them. I only have 5 or 6, so I joined the Crazy Challenge in order to produce some more WIPs, lol.
    Have a great and happy new stitching year.
