08/03/2010 04:42PM Great report. Sounds like you guys used a lot of tubes for fishing the smallies. What techniques and set-ups worked best for your group, would you say? |

06/28/2010 08:05PM Geo, I think we were loading up off the water while you were. We were loading a green window van as you were lacing up a tarp on your trailer. We think we also saw you broken down around Madison Sunday. We left Ely early Sunday AM. We didn't see anyone around outside the trailer and blew on by. Had I known you were a boardmember I would have insisted stronger that we go back to help. Sorry. Glad it worked out . Great report. |

Seems like there oughta be something out there that's more streamlined." XnView Tool I like the batch rename and the batch resize. I use those options quite often. Also, I see XnView is available as freeware. Do you know if it's worth messing with? Thanks. I also use a tool that I wrote to help matchup and sync pictures from multiple cameras.... The process I wrote allows you to load all pics and order by the camera, and then use a thumbnail to "map" the exif date/time taken to a common time between all the pictures. Wow, now that's something I could use. My Olympus was off by an hour or more for the first few days of my trip, so I had to resort to a somewhat more complex file numbering system than I usually use to get the pics to sort correctly in Bridge. |

06/25/2010 08:40AM Great trip report Geo. Always love the fishing reports the most. That heat would have been hard for me to handle...I don't like much over 75. On our trip we didn't get anything even into the 70's a little over a week after you were in. We did get quite a bit of rain though. Looking forward to the photos;-) Dave |

06/25/2010 12:29AMquote Koda: "Hey Geo, I hope ya know I's just funnin' ya! I know..........and no biggie. I use XnView Pro. This is the purchased version. It is under 40 bucks and does lots of cool stuff. XnView Tool I like the batch rename and the batch resize. I use those options quite often. I also use a tool that I wrote to help matchup and sync pictures from multiple cameras. When you go on a trip with 6 different guys, you might end up with 6 different sets of pictures, with different timestamps, etc, etc. If you want them in chronological order, that may become a pain if they camera date/time is not set right or not set at all. The process I wrote allows you to load all pics and order by the camera, and then use a thumbnail to "map" the exif date/time taken to a common time between all the pictures. If the time is off by an hour or a day or a year or whatever, I can tell the software to change the exif date/time taken in a picture to whatever an offset date/timestamp. THE offset is based on the pictures date/timestamp + - the BASE pictures timestamp. Presto Chango.....after using my rename process, the pictures are now in chronological order, and I can then rename use XnView to Name + Date + timestamp to create pictures name Quetico_2010_05_21_10_10_11, or something like that. WORKS GREAT. Later, Geo |

I don't know which ones of the 1000 that we have should go in the web. I will take all my pics and resize them to "websized", and then copy a few hundred to my personal web server. From there, LINKS to this site. Later, geo |
