Creating your own 2007 photo calendar, step-by-step
This year, we decided to illustrate the use of print on-demand technology by demonstrating the creation of our first Connected Photographer calendar. In addition to the printing on-demand process, we'll show you how you can offload the fulfillment process (taking, packing, and shipping orders). To accomplish this, we used CafePress, a service that specializes in one-off production. In this article and the next few, we'll take you through the process of selecting the images, setting up the online store, and creating the calendar.

Images and a cover for your own 2007 photo calendar
We continue our 2007 photo calendar project by preparing the images for publication. As you'll recall from last week's article, we selected 13 images to be used for each month, plus a cover. In this article, we'll learn about proper image formatting and create the cover image.

Making money taking real estate photos
Last week, we ran an interview with Web designer and photographer Kelly Thomas. In that installment, we talked about taking 360 degree real estate photos. In this installment, we continue to talk with the fascinating Kelly, but about how to make money. As topics go, you gotta like that!

Permanently turning off the automatic Adobe Photo Downloader
We're very big fans of the new Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 product. There is one complaint, though, we have about Elements. It's really just a nit, and it's easy to fix. When you install Elements, the program installs something called the Adobe Photo Downloader. By following these instructions, you can quickly reclaim almost 2MB of your system's RAM. It's not a huge amount, but every little bit adds up.
