Day 60: Bellingen. Building for the Future

Some of you have asked the question to me: why are photos and videos etc not up on the website yet?

Good question!

1. I am new to this, and it takes me time to learn the new programmes to upload/convert/ edit etc.

2. iphoto kept jamming everytime I tried to load stuff to the website or download to the MAC. In Canberra, on a 2nd visit to a MAC shop in the suburbs, I found out that iphoto had got corrupted. Troubleshooting in the shop … and then new software installed and it got working.

3. In Sydney Chris booked to for a master class at the Apple shop to learn about imovie/editing, only to find that the software on his MAC was outofdate compared to the class’s. Added to that the speed of his computer got slower and slower… a new harddrive of 500gb was installed in Newcastle.

4. To do a download I need uninterrupted power supply for several hours, and there is not enough room to do this in a small tent. So it has to be done when I have reached a stopping point, and can set time to do this (2-3 hours usually to download video material to the computer). Naturally as I get used to the procedure, we can aim to get all films on the website more quickly.

Sorry to all those waiting. Thank you for your patience.

Any suggestions? you know how to reach me!

Chris
