`Using WordPad
`When WordPadfirst opens, you see an empty sheet of electronic typing paper. Just
`above the ruler, you'll find drop-down menus and buttonsthataffect the formatting
`of your text, as shown in Figure 6-6. As in any word processor, you can apply these
`formats (ike bold,italic, or color) to two kindsoftext:
`* Text you've highlighted by dragging the mouse acrossit.
`° Text you're about to type. In other words,if you click the I button, the next char-
`acters you type will beitalicized. Click the I button a secondtime to “turn off” the
`italics,
`
`The rightmost formatting buttonsaffect entire paragraphs, as shown in Figure 6-7.
`WordPad doesn’t offer big-gun featureslike spell checking,style sheets, or tables. But
`it does offer a surprisingly longlist of core word processing features. For example:
`* EditFind, Edit—Replace. Using the Find command,you can locate a particular
`word or phrase instantly, even in along document. The Replace commandtakesit
`a step further, replacing that found phrase with anotherone(a great way to change
`the nameof your main character throughoutan entire novel,for example).

`from ace to king—in the spacesat the upper-right corner of the screen. (To move
`a card,click it once and then click where you want it moved to.)
`You can use the upper-left placeholders, the “free cells,” as temporary resting places
`for your cards. From there, cards can go either onto one of the upper-rightpiles
`or onto the bottom of one of the eight piles in the second row. However, when
`moving cards to the eight piles, you must place them alternating red/black, and
`in descending sequence.

`
`* Hearts, Internet Hearts. The object of this card gameis to get rid of all the hearts
`you're holding by passing them off to other players. At the end of each round,all
`players counts up their points: one point for each heart, and thirteen pointsfor the
`dreaded queen of spades. The winneris the person with the fewest points when
`the game ends (which is when somebodyreaches 100).
`What makesit tricky is that even while you're trying to ditch your hearts, somebody
`else may besecretly trying to collect them.If you can collect all of the hearts and
`the queen of spades, you win big-time; everybody else gets 26 big fat points, and
`you get off scot-free.

`
`In Solitaire, the object is to build four piles of cards, one for each suit, in ascend-
`ing order (starting with aces). To help achieve this, you maintain seven smaller
`stacks of cards in the second row. You can putcards onto thesepiles as long as you
`alternate red and black, andas long as the cards go in descendingorder(a four of
`hearts can be placed ona five of spades, for example). Click a face-down card on
`one of these piles to turnit over. If it helps you to continue the red/black/red/black
`sequence you've started, remember you can drag around stacks of face-up cards

`
`Findows XP is the most advanced version yet when it comes to playing
`
`and displaying multimedia files—photos, sounds, and movies. New fea-
`
`tures makeit easier than ever for your PC to control your digital camera
`or scanner, play movies and sounds, andplay radio stations from all over the world
`ag you work on your PC (thanks to your Internet connection).
`In this chapter, you'll find guides to all of these features.

`
`. The new stability of XP is nice, and the new task pane can save you time. But if you
`have a digital camera, few of the new features in Windows XP are quite as useful asits
`“: ability to manage your digital photos. Microsoft has bent over backwardto simplify
`:- and streamline a process that was once a chain of pain: transferring photos from your
`*, camera to the PC, and then trying to figure out what to do with them.
`
`
`
`
`—. Hooking Up Your Camera
`~. If your digital camerais less than a few years old, it probably came with a USB cable
`designed to plug into your PC. Fortunately,if your PC is young enough to run Win-
`‘dows XP, it probably has a USB jack,too.
`
`
`
`
`
`Furthermore, Windows XP comes preloaded with drivers for hundreds of current
`camera models, generally sparing you the standardinstallation process described in
`Chapter 14. That’s why, for most people, the instructionsfor transferring photos from
`the camera to the PC are as follows:

`Suppose you've opened a folder of freshly downloaded pictures. (As noted above,
`they’re usually in a folder in your My Pictures folder, which itselfis in your My Docu-
`ments folder. Unless you've deliberately removed My Pictures from your Start menu,
`just choose its name from the Start menuto get going. Or you can puta shortcut icon
`for My Pictures right on your desktop.)

`
`- your PC.

`‘Windows XP comes with two folder window viewsespecially designed for digital
`photos: Thumbnail and Filmstrip. You can read about them on page 78; for now,it’s

`Web page, or email features described in the following paragraphs.
`
`
`
`Tip: Whenrotating a photo in Filmstrip view (Figure 7-2), Windows sometines announces. “Because of the
`dimensionsofthis picture, rotating it might permanently reduceits quality. Do you want to proceed?”
`
`This scary message pops up only when you're trying to rotate a photo whese dimensions (measured in
`pixels) aren't an even multiple of sixteen. Windowsis letting you know that, thanks to a quirk in the science
`of JPEG compression, if must recompress the graphic in order to rotate it. Microsoft says that the “quality
`loss"is imperceptible to the human eys, and you'll probably agree, Butif you're worried aboutit, make a
`copy of the original photofile before you rotateit.
`
`Start a slide show
`When youclick “View asa slide show”in the task pane, your screen goes dark, thunder
`rumbles somewhere, and your entire monitor fills with a gorgeous,self-advancing
`slide show of the pictures in the folder. If you then move the mouse, a tiny palette
`appears in the upper-right corner with buttons of control buttons that correspond
`to Play, Pause, Previous, Next, and Stop.
`
`The beauty of a slide showlike this is that everyone at your presentation (or,if this
`is your home computer, in your family) can see it at once. It beats the pants off the
`ritual of passing out individual 4 x 6 drugstore prints to each person.
`
`To stop the slide show, press the Esc key on your keyboard (or click the X button in
`the floating palette that appears when you move your mouse).
`
`Note:Why do ohoto-related tasks appear on the task pane onlyin the My Pictures foider? Because Microscft
`has applied the Pictures or Photo Album folder template to it, You can make these tasks appearin any other
`folder, however, just by applying the same folder template; see page 79.
`
`Order prints online
`If you click this link in the task pane, Windows XP presents a wizard that helps you
`select photos in your folder for uploading to an online photo processor, like Kodak,
`Shutterfly, or Fuji. You can specify how many copies you want of each print, and at
`whatsizes (Figure 7-3). Once you've plugged in your credit card number, the prints
`arrive by mail in about a week.
`
`—
`
`Make a printout
`This task-panelink, too, opens a wizard.Thistime,it guides you througha selection of
`photos in yourfolderto print,a selection of printers to use, and the layout of photos
`on each 8% x 11 sheet (four 3 x 5 inch prints, 9 wallet-sized prints, and so on). Note
`that many of these layouts chop off parts of your pictures to make them fit the page;
`the layout previews will reveal exactly which parts of the image you'll lose,

`:Post the photos on the Web
`
`Inthe old days, creating and posting Web pages wasa task fit only for geeks. In Win-
`
`dows XP, however, anybody can create a gallery of photos that hangs on the Web for
`
`
`everyonein the worldto see.
`
`
`
`Startby clicking “Publish this file ({folder] if no file is selected) to the Web”in the
`
`taskpaneattheleft side of yourpictures folder window.Yes,it’s the Web Publishing
`
`Wizard, whose screens waik you through this process:

` Choosing the photos (from the assortmentin the currentfolder) that you want
`0put online.

`onthe Internet. Note that this means paying money—unless you choose MSN
`Groups from the selection on the third wizard screen.
