Photo software problem, pool

[skreidle]

After setting up Gallery Remote on my computer, and then installing ImageMagick so it could resize prior to uploading, I tried offloading the new photos off of my camera.. only to find that Nikon View would hang while trying to transfer the files if initiated from the computer, and crash if initiated from the camera--despite working fine two or three times before. Finding nothing in Help--offline or online--I'm downloading the 45MB new release of the Nikon View software in hopes that that will help. (I could try reinstalling from the CD, or use iPhoto, but I figure I'll try the new release of the intended software first.)

Shortly after that Jillian and Oscar came over to pick up her driver license, which I'd realized was in my pocket (rather than have it fall out of hers after leaving Insomnia), and they invited me to join them and go play pool. Off to North we went, only to find it closed, so we walked back to the Civic Pub, where my coworkers had been but I had not. Nice place--good layout, at least 20 pool tables, a music-video-jukebox--and we played a few rounds, wherein Oscar or I won most (if not all) of them. :)

And now, back home, where my download is 20MB done. Work again tomorrow, after a nice relaxing break. :)

Update, 22:26: Submitted questions to Nikon Tech Support for both the non-transfer issue and the previous "can only transfer all photos, not just select ones" issue. Almost 25MB downloaded!

I could never get Gallery to set up successfully on my server. Unfortunate, because I really like the script.

I've gotten Gallery up, as far as I know--seems to be working properly and configured, though I haven't uploaded any photos--and I think Gallery Remote should be working now, though I don't know what to do with the latest beta, so I'll stick with a slightly older release.
