    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

got a question

Hi i have a question when taking pics i have a canon powershot A540 what does it mean and how do u get white calibration just curious still learning on taking better pics lol thanks tina
 
I believe it to be a digital adjustment for the amount/type of light it lets in. If you white balance for indoors, it helps reduce the yellow given off by many lights, and makes it a more natural "light" color.

If calibrated for outdoor white balance, it will likely do the same for the sun, but reduce the brightness a bit.

Haven't played with it much, as I'm still relatively new to DSLR's. It's not a function that was on any of my old 35mm cameras. But this is how I've come to understand it.
