I can’t view the video - can we have the flash one back? Looks like you could loose viewers with this move - what’s more important, perfection or pleasing your visitors?

Love your videos! Very clear, professional and informative!I would love see the topic of photo organization addressed in detail - specifically what you really do. So I have all these digital pictures I take and down load on my computer. How do you have your pics organized? What program do you use? Do you work with them right when you download them from your camera? How do you decide what pics to scrap? How do you organize your scrapbooks? How do you back up your photos? And, all the other stuff:)
Whew! I know that all these questions are individual and we should all do what works for us, however, I like to see what others do in detail so I can make informed decisions as to what will work best for me.
I love your live episodes - I have watched one or two after the actual time. Currently, Tuesday’s are a bad time for me - maybe someday:) Watching someone actually do the work in it’s entirety and unscripted really is a great learning experience!

Noell - as usual I loved this episode, very informative. The quality of the video is amazing and did not take long to download. I couldn’t figure out where on iTunes to leave a comment, I’m not very computer savy, so I’m leaving it here. I can’t wait for tomorrow night’s Paperclipping Live. Hopefully I can get on this week. Comcast was having issues last week and I had to wait and watch the recorded version. It’s great to see how your mind works and your thought processes when your working on a layout. Thanks again for everything :o)

Cynthia–I don’t print my photos at home. I get mine at Costco. You can order them online from Costco, or take your photos in to their one hour lab. Just push the button for enlargements and you should be able to find the 8×12 option. If not, just ask.
I know there are other places who will do it, too. So wherever you currently go for photos, check with them and see, and if not, hopefully it won’t be hard to find a place that is convenient for you that will do it.

I tried to access the high quality video last night, and coudn’t so am really glad you put the flash version back up! Great episode, as usual…very straightforward and informative.
I’d love to see an episode on what energizes and inspires you when you create your pages. We get a personal glimpse of this on Tuesday nights when you are live. What I am wondering is if you read magazines, have an inspiration binder, collect quotes, or tear out ads from mags that inspire you with a design concept. What inspires you and how do you use it in your art/scrapbooking?
Take care,
Karen
P.S. I will head to iTunes and leave a comment. I am also forwarding the link to your blog to my online scrapping group.

Noell, I just love reading all the comments people send in and now with the start of the video clips…it is really fun!! It was nice to “meet” Amanda! Hope we all can get our cams going so we will be able to put a face with the name!
This site is going to really go places and just want you to know we appreciate all the time you and your DH put into it!
I had never seen a LO with the big pics! Love what you did with them and can’t wait to try some. I think the double page LO’s are great with the big picture!

I don’t usually make any comments but I have been watching your videos in fact all of them. I do like them and learn from them. I also just ran into you paperclipping live. I think its a great idea. I really do appreciate the time you put into it. I like you style and the stuff you teach. I just wanted to make a comment and let you know that you probably have more people watching your videos and stuff then leaving a comment. Thanks for taking the time to do that!!

I found you site about 2 weeks ago. I have already watched every video, the live scrapping and reviewed alot of the archives. I really enjoy all of it. Keep up the good work.
By the way I also saw your layout in the Feb 08 issue of Simple Scrapbooks. Keep up the good work.

I love your tuturiols! I have learned so much and have become less timid on trying things out! I love your weekly live show too.

I just found your website through a random email I received & promptly watched all thirty episodes of your podcast! These videos are so clear & helpful. I’m in school now so I can’t bring my scrapbooking supplies out here, but I can’t wait until summer so I can try all these new techniques– especially the painting & corner stitching, which always looks so professional but intimidating. Now I feel like I can do it!
Looking forward to more episodes & tips & tricks!
