Microsoft Publisher will simplify this process. You can use it to do desktop layout then create an HTML or PDF document you can email to your family members.

The Unidentified Flying Raw (UFRaw) is a utility to read and manipulate raw images from digital cameras. It can be used on its own or as a Gimp plug-in. It reads raw images using Dave Coffin’s raw conversion utility - DCRaw. UFRaw supports basic color management using Little CMS, allowing the user to apply color profiles.

- Boynq Alibi
$80
To get started in the world of video chat, you need two key things: a camera, and a headset. The Boynq Alibi is designed to do the job of both these components… not only is it a speaker with built-in microphone, but press on the top and up pops a 1.3 megapixel USB webcam which tilts and swivels. To be fair, the speaker quality isn’t the best you’ll find, and it’s a bit frustrating that the speaker/mic portion requires analogue connectors instead of hooking to the computer via USB. But for $80 it does solve a problem for a lot of people.Shiny:
- pop-up webcam is positionable
- built-in microphone
Dull
- speaker quality middling
- uses analogue audio jacks
