Ok guys... leme clarify for you....
It's regular old Kodak Max 35mm film from the drug store. I bought the same
type of film, in a four pack. It's all the same kind.

Or, perhaps, my camera????? I'm telling you guys, though you say a camera
doesn't have to be expensive to work well, ok, i'll give you that... but
this CAMERA SUCKS. No fancy features, no light meeter, nothing!!! Just a
friggin button to push to take the picture, and the option of turning on the
flash if needed.
And, my scanner isn't the best either. It's a cheapy I got on sale for $70
at best buy about 2 years ago.
Granted, I could have probably used better film, however, funding funding
funding... we were limited on cash for this trip, so I bought what I could
afford. 400 speed Kodak max 35mm film in a 4 pack with a coupon.
As for the developing lab, yes, I could have spent more money to take the
film elsewhere to get it developed, but like I said before... limited funds.
And I had a feeling the pictures might be fubared because half the time when
I pressed the button to take a picture, it didn't snap. Let me say it
again.... CHEAP CRAPPY CAMERA. I think the "disposable" off brand cameras
I've bought in the past take better pictures.
And, I really don't care if they look professional. It's just a simple
group of vacation pictures, mostly for mine & hubby's enjoyment... I only
posted them there because my family wanted to see them, and my friends. And
I asked if someone would take a look at the page with a linux browser to
make sure the page was linux friendly. I've heard that not all web pages
are linux friendly... may be there's a topic you can clarify for me.
When we get hubby's camera fixed, I plan to "work" on my photography
skills... I have some ideas for photos I'd like to take.
CRAPPY CAMERA... ok? get it? LOL... it sucked. believe me.
