SWMBO and Monster took Leah to have her first "proper" photos on Saturday, Pixie Photos had an offer where you got a free 12" * 10" photo. They obviously know what they're doing as the "free photo" turned into £110 worth of more photos, worth every penny I'd say, Wwe had them taken of her in her christening gown - Bless. Service is excellent, we recieved the photos today and here they are not copied, scanned in or anything that may seem illegal.

Pulling my Finger Out
I have 3 things I really need to do*
1. Re-do my website
2. Sort out Photos of Leah
3. Create a Leah DVD from my Camcorder
1. Redo my Site
I stupidly decided to re-design my website, I say stupidly as rather than do the redesign then upload and replace the current version, I took the site down with a "Coming Soon" message. After a few months, the site is still coming soon, I am intending on using a template site to base it on, with tabbed tops that link to photos, family, gadgets and other stuff. I have yet to find the template to use but will ned to get it done very soon.
2. Sort out Photos of Leah
I have thousands of photos of Leah, I want to pick the best 100 and create a photo album from birth.
3. Create a DVD
I now have lots of footage which I intend on creating a DVD from, the trouble with home movies however is the 100 hours of footage you start with ends up being 5 minutes of decent film. I have a HD (Hard Drive) Camera so the transfer to my PC will be easy, I intend on using Sony Vegas to capture the footage, something like Adobe Premier for editing and maybe After Effects for any special effects, titles etc.
I guess it all boils down to a: being arsed and b: having the inspiration/creative flair to do so, Unlike Taoski, I'm far from creative, getting my ideas from t'internet bores the hell out of me.
Therefore
* I actually have about 33 things to do but SWMBO doesn't read my blog so the other 30 "house things" can go on hold.

Therefore
- My website is will be a very basic, quick loading site
- Leahs Photo Album is fairly straightforward, I have messed around ith Photoshop and created some half-decent photos
- The DVD will be a "pre-release" therefore not have any special effects
