| MC lets you easily transfer photos from your
digital camera to your PC and and organize them. Then it's a snap
to share them with friends and relatives via e-mail or upload them to a Web
site.
Once you have taken your pictures, just connect the camera to your
PC with the USB or Firewire cable that came with it. Turn the
camera on and run MC. From the Toolbar select File> Acquire
Images... Then select Digital Camera from the Image Source menu and
click Acquire. The images will be found automatically, transferred
to your PC and imported into MC's powerful media library.
Next, tag your images so that you can find them more easily later
(tags just provide info about each image for identification and to
make searches and organization easier). You can view all your
newly imported images by clicking Playlists> Recently Imported
in the MC Organization Tree. Select one or more images and
right-click with your mouse, select Tag Info. A window will open
up giving you options for modifying tags for the images. For
example, under the Events field you can name your recently imported
images Family Vacation, Nature Pics, Hobby Photos and so on.
If you need to rotate any images, just select one or more, and
right-click to choose Image> Rotate.
To send images by e-mail, just highlight the images you want
to send. From the MC Toolbar select
Tools> Send To> Email / Web> Mail Recipient... MC will
then give you the option to resize images for email delivery.
Finally, press OK. Your e-mail program will open up ready for you to write
a message and send it off with the photos already attached.
To quickly create a Web page of selected photos for your Web site,
choose one or more images, and from the MC Toolbar select
Tools> Send To> Email / Web> Web or FTP Server,
set your options and click OK. A Web page will be automatically
generated and uploaded to your Web site.
Once you have images in your MC Media Library there lots of
ways to enjoy them, such as creating slideshows with music or
using them to create custom CD labels. Printing services such as Shutterfly can accept your uploaded
pictures, print them and return them to you in just a few days by
