MadSnapper Trivia: I love to play with photos and graphics in software programs.
This collage was created using Microsoft Word clip- art, the top square is the clip-art I started with...I used the Snip It tool to grab it and save it in JPEG and then changed it 3 different ways in Photo Shop.
The cute little golden computer people were also found in Word Clip-Art and changed a little in Photo Shop.
Before Computers.......
1. Memory was something that you lost with Age......
2. An application was for employment....
3. A program was a TV show.......
4. A cursor used profanity...........
A mouse pad was where a mouse lived and a hard drive was a long trip on the road.
A keyboard was a piano and a web was a spiders home.
A virus was the flu and a CD was a bank account.
Author Unknown, I found these quotes on Face Book
Thank You! Thank You! Thank you! to all the techies out there that took us from a computer the size of a house to a tiny one we can hold in our hand..
the photo below is from my Friend Snapper II, since I have no smart phone and wanted to know what my blog looks like on one, he sent me a photo.... AMAZING!
Amazing creations with clip art.
ReplyDeleteLove how words change meanings over time!
ReplyDeleteoh my, i am amazed at how creative you are, sandra. love all of them!
ReplyDeletethanks for another delightful post!
I love your new header photo, and your photo edits, amazing how much you can do. These tools are great :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great day.
One of the nicest things about many of the tools you use is that they are low or no cost, except for programs like photoshop. I have an older version bought when taking a college course and even then it was a couple hundred dollars. I still works, but I confess to not knowing all about how to use it to its fullest capacity.
ReplyDeleteI love the quotes you found -- they make it obvious how much things have changed in a relatively short time. I also like your computer people and edits.
ReplyDeleteTechnology has come a long way and I often wonder where it's headed! Just when you think they can't come up with anything else that is new, they do. Love the quotes and your creations!
ReplyDeleteYou are a real techie in your "old age" Sandra. I wonder if I'll ever get to that point since I was so involved with the techie side during my banking career...:)JP
ReplyDeleteyou have completely embraced technology. :)
ReplyDeleteMS you are so clever!! I love the gold computer people!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for you b-day wishes to Mom.
Hugs Madi and Mom
Don't forget,it lets people all over the globe into our personal lives.
ReplyDeleteOH, and "THE USER NAME OR PASSWORD YOU ENTERED IS INCORRECT" "FORGOT YOUR USER NAME OR PASSWORD"
ReplyDeleteand you are talented to make these clip art changes, etc. That is funny how things have changed. I dont have a smart phone either
ReplyDeleteOn your great doing what you do for a old gal.
ReplyDeleteHa-ha
Yes, times they have a-changed... AND --all of the new words, and/or words with NEW meanings.. Crazy, isn't it????? BUT--don't we all love it?
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Betsy
You are a wonder of tech skills and tech art. Love those golden people!
ReplyDeleteHow fun, your city just lit up on my Recent Visitor Earth Globe. I'm pretty sure it must have been you, reading my blog. I love it when that happens. The other reader right now is from Lisbon, which is cool too.
ReplyDeleteFunny list...there is one missing tho, if I recall correctly, about the 3 1/2 floppy? Oh never mind. Not that important. The idea here is to laugh and laugh I did.
ReplyDeleteGreat skills using your software!!!
Love your art creations and the funnies! Have a nice afternoon.
ReplyDeleteTALENT that's what you have....also a cute smile and wonderful humor.
ReplyDeleteForgot to add...Frank and I have a cheap Wallmart tracphone...just for emergencies.
ReplyDeleteI love those little quotes - I wish that my memory was contained in a computer - then I could go there and try to remember. sandie
ReplyDeleteMy life would be boring if I didn't have computers to 'work' on. I guess I would actually have to clean the house.
ReplyDeleteThings have certainly changed since the first PCs. My first one I inherited from my brother, it was huge and had 5" discs and a word program that he had programmed himself which was not compatible with anything else!
ReplyDeleteYou are just too, too much Sandra. Love your clip art and how interesting that the meaning of words have changed.
ReplyDeleteGreat post as always.
Have a wonderful day.
You sure know how to have fun! I love the 'old' definition of the words. My my! Times have certainly changed!
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing!!! But I know you are having fun. I could do none of it. Glad you show us what you get in the end...that I really like.
ReplyDeleteThe fun list is great. Each one is fun and interesting.
Susannah ( did not forget ya.)
I join in your thanks. For example I am viewing your blog on my iPad right now, which is really good for online reading and viewing photos. Like a digital newspaper.
ReplyDeleteyour clip art play is great. I occasionally bring my blog up on my phone, first time I did it I thought it was the coolest thing.
ReplyDeleteAmazing how far we have come with technology
Remarkable isn't it ~ I wonder what the techno future has in store for our kids when they are our age .
ReplyDeleteLove the quotes, those were fun!
ReplyDeleteI would like to "un" embrace the cell phones...how nice it would be to actually have a real conversation with my kids again instead of all this confounded texting!
ReplyDeleteyou are the Queen Sandra...just love when you play....brings us so much enjoyment seeing your creations...
ReplyDeleteI love those little computer people.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great quote and I have one more to add, remember when RAM was a critter in the pasture.
One of my all time favorite quotes comes from Bill Gates: "No one will need more than 637 kb of memory for a personal computer." - said in the early 1970s.
Yeah, right Bill.
I would be lost without a computer...and my kindle now. But would probably accomplish more if I didn't have them.
ReplyDeleteHooray for techno gadgets!!! :)
