Hi Lina!

Your childen are adorable. My journal takes about 15 minutes to do and its not nearly as neat as yours. Takes too long for me sometimes which is probably why I rarely update it.

 

[Preacher]

You could use DCEnhancer to get those picture cleared out ...
it works wonders on digital cameras ...

Example:

against

see the difference ?

You can find DCEnhancer (freeware!) here

 

[lina]

Hey Preacher!

Thanks a lot! I can sure see the difference!!! I tried "brightening" the pix in Adobe Photoshop but yours looks much better!!

I'll have to try that from now on!!
