Cut and paste journals and books, old school vs eletronic

Old school way of doing my journals, cut and paste included glue, color copies, pictures developed in dark rooms. Pre-dating digital photos, color printers and personal computers.

Revolutionary changes take place!!!!!!!!






So far, my cyber oriented hobbies include making these "computer-books and updating custom calendars tracking my retirement and deaths in Iraq of US servicemen.


I can now take images from the Internet, construct a "book" and get it published! To date, I have created 3 of these books and I have finished the 4th, which will get published when I can afford to do so.




The beautiful thing about doing this is I can create pages on PowerPoint, save them as a JPEG and put the finished product in these books. I can also make calendars, hand the images on my wall or like I did in my last entree, post it to my blog.




The Tall Ships came to my town this summer and made this with images I got on line.
I love this medium, the Internet, computers and blogging. My Father just gave me a color printer. My goal is to go back to old school journal keeping, using my computer, printer and PowerPoint created images to take my journals even better.
