digital glitches

I had Thanksgiving weekend all planned - my hubby was going hunting - and I had the whole weekend to finish my long awaited travel storybook. I was so excited about the new release of the digital storybooking tool, I couldn't wait to have all that time to myself ... and no one said "wait a minute, it's not quite perfect yet".

In the beginning everything flowed - the adjustments to the photo files meant I could now flip through my pictures and quickly find what I was looking for, and get them onto the page fast - the new backgrounds and embelishments provided by scrapgirls were amazing and versitile - and then I started to add text. That's when things got messy, frustrating and time consuming. I have to admit that I e-mailed a long complaint to the help department, offering to roast the turkey that believed the text formating was working, because it wasn't.

I felt a little foolish when I opened my e-mails and saw the announcement that these last bugs would be ironed out, and all will be well in the world by Oct. 16th. That's only a week away - I can deal with that.
