Update: I've been notified by Mark that this is completely useless. Please disregard 🙂 In Win7 and 2008 you get the same option by just holding down Shift as you right-click. Thanks Mark! Ever find yourself in Windows, browing through files and needing to copy a file's full path? As a developer, this seems to … Continue reading Copy File Path in Windows Explorer

Corel VideoStudio Pro and QuickTime, a Followup
A couple days ago I posted about problems I've run into trying to use the QuickTime files created by my new Canon 7D. Last night, someone from Corel contacted me with a few questions about the issue. After some back and forth, it became quite clear that there really shouldn't be a problem - he … Continue reading Corel VideoStudio Pro and QuickTime, a Followup
Corel VideoStudio Pro and QuickTime, a Workaround
I really like Corel VideoStudio Pro for video editing, and I've been using it for 4 years now. Unfortunately it really falls down when it comes to QuickTime videos. Now that I own a Canon 7D that records in QuickTime format, this is a problem. The underlying issue is that the software seems to lose … Continue reading Corel VideoStudio Pro and QuickTime, a Workaround
Sharing iPhone Wallpapers
I have created a page here where I will be sharing images I've cropped and re-sized to be used as iPhone wallpapers. Navigate to Wallpapers -> iPhone Wallpapers on the menu above (or go directly to the page here). I won't be noting new uploads here, so you'll need to just check back periodically.

In the first post in this series I discussed importing your photos into Lightroom and explained how I have Lightroom configured to import into a nicely organized, folder structure based on the import date. So you'd think I'd use this all the time, right?
How I Use Lightroom: Getting Photos Out
One of the first hurdles users new to Lightroom run into is how to get to the images they have edited. It's common to think I imported them to the My Pictures folder, so I'll just use Windows Explorer to grab a copy.
Google+, Circles, and Cognitive Dissonance
From the first circles I created to the first notifications I receive about being added to others' circles, I've had cognitive dissonance about how to setup my circles.
How I Use Lightroom: Taking Out the Trash
In the previous post I described how I use the Import window. As I mentioned, I don't exclude any photos at that stage. I bring everything in and then quickly make a pass where I figure out which need to be deleted.
How I Use Lightroom: Getting Photos In
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom is an excellent piece of software I've recommended to many of my friends who have been bitten by the photography bug. It catalogs and organizes all of my photos, allows me to quickly and efficiently edit them, and assists in pushing the end results for others to see. While on the surface it is targeted to professionals, I'm no professional and wouldn't enjoy photography nearly as much without it.
Lightroom 3, the iPhone, and Crashing on Import
A few weeks ago I imported photos from my iPhone into Lightroom 3. Ever since, I've had Lightroom crash on several occasions when I've gone to import photos off of a Compact Flash card. I'm running Windows 7, 64-bit. I was resorting to a reboot to clear it up, but tonight I had too much … Continue reading Lightroom 3, the iPhone, and Crashing on Import
