dagnabbit rabbit!! finally figured out what was going on. Last night, must have taken a hundred pictures just trying to post one of a project am working on. Every time, I'd watch 'em download and then disappear!! lol Spent hours, even today :lol: and couldn't find them anywhere.
At my wits end, brain scrambled and all, while waiting on my neighbor to come over and investigate said problem - happened to be looking in a folder dated 2007. Simple, had never set the date in my camera --- technology:smash:
