camera

I am new to the ways of USB devices, though I still think it's a documentation failure.

It turns out that when installing the driver, the camera has to be connected and turned on. Never mind that the driver is on a CD and -- in one go-round -- I explicitly navigated to the correct file on that CD. If the camera isn't there, Windows apparently just blows you off and lies about installing the driver.

So I can now download pictures (yay!). It appears that I'm not very good at taking pictures of myself, though, so updated userpics will, for the most part, have to wait a bit. (Arm's length is too close for the flash. Tomorrow perhaps I'll figure out how to use the timer, or go outside if it's sunny.)

I'm sure they would, but she would probably run and hide. :-) The trick to meeting Embla "in person" is to spend time over here. She's now fairly comfortable around On the Mark, for example, and she's been known to let the cat-sitter (neighbor) get close.
