From: johnson on 31 Oct 2009 12:14 As you will see from my later posts, I did eventually find JPEG JAPERTY, which downloads in less than 30 secs, does the job within seconds and has a decent website to back it. But of course, there are lots of nerds around, and people that like to pretend that they know everything, that simply would not want as simple solution that works straight away for everybody without any fannying about...

Yes, the 30 seconds seem to be the outer limit for a download these days. How did the world work when you'd have to spend hours or days with a modem or even physically walk to a shop and buy a physical package containing diskettes? But, well, feel free to enjoy software that doesn't even deinstalls cleanly (by admission of its FAQ). > But of course, there are lots of nerds around, > and people that like to pretend that they know everything, that simply would > not want as simple solution that works straight away for everybody without > any fannying about... Yes, that's why we all don't want you to use anything but a fully automatic point&shoot --- preferably one that presses the shutter itself or downloades pre-made shots based on the geolocation (which you'll have to pay for extra, of course.) God forbid you may use some manual process somewhere or even shoot film and scan that! You'd have to *learn* tons of things, it doesn't download in a few days --- in fact, you have to develop film either yourself, a horribly complicated process which only an ueber-god can think of accomplishing or give it away for development! --- it takes a few days to start to grasp photography and years to master it even if you work daily on it, and there's no decent website to back it. Now, scanning --- more to learn, more to try, takes much longer than 30 seconds, you have to physically move the scanner to your house (no downloading) and many websites purporting to know the truth all claim different things. -Wolfgang
