I bought my camera about 6 yrs ago (maybe) Back when they were running about $400 ouch! It took great pictures for years, it was wonderful for close ups for ebay listings and then it jumped out of my hand and committed suicide on my tile floor. It's a 6.1 mp 3x zoom and they've been selling for between $50 and $120 here on the bay. After purchasing a Vivitar 8.1 mp touch screen, I realized how much I loved the DX7630 so I bought one here on ebay. But does anyone know why this particular camera is so popular? Is it just because old folks like me don't like the newer ones, or what? Thanks
I am searching for a camera that takes killer close-ups. I am a makeup artist and need a camera that will capture the eyeshadow colors. Also if it records for about 8-10 minutes its a plus!! I really need some advice on which camera to purchase that fits this description. Help and advice is greatly appreciated. xoxo
Also, The pic taken on my profile pic was with a cheap camera. It was a samsung S630. I hate it!!! It has 6.0 megapixels, and a 3x zoom. As you can see its blurry and has poor closeup quality.
There is a company called Transcendent Innovations (known as 'Trainn') which is basically a marketing company. They represent advertisers such as Blockbuster, Netflix, Gamefly, Scholastic Books, etc. Those companies pay Trainn to get consumers (you and I) to try their services. They figure the direct cost of trying to market something to and decide why not pay that to someone who can guarantee them a whole bunch of new eyeballs. In this case, they'll pay you with a brand new Nintendo Wii just for doing something as simple as trying out Blockbuster for 30 days.
That will take you to the sign-up page. Just follow the simple instructions to sign up - I suggest you set your account as a 'Referral' account, rather than a 'Points' account. That way, you'll only need to complete one free trial offer, and will get a few of your friends to do the same (but more on that later). Once, you're signed up, Trainn will send you an email confirming your account. Now you're all set to get that offer completed and out of the way.
Completing an Offer
When you first log in to the site, you'll see a tab labeled 'Progress' - this shows how far along you are to getting your free Nintendo Wii. Click on the tab labeled 'Offers' Look through and find an offer that interests you. There are plenty of great trial offers from companies like Blockbuster, Netflix, Scholastic Books, Gamefly and others. My suggestion is to sign up for Blockbuster.com - for $10 you get a one month trial to their online service where you select the movies you want to watch and they mail the dvds to you! Its a great offer, simple to complete, and for only ten bucks completes your main requirement for getting your free Wii.
Once you've completed the offer, the 'Progress' tab on your Trainn account should show that you've now completed your offer requirement. Now you're ready for referrals.
Referrals
Here's the last step - getting referrals. To get your free Nintendo Wii just get 5 people to do what you did - sign up for a new account using your own unique referral link (found on the 'Progress' tab). As soon as they sign up and complete their one offer requirement your account will be updated to show credit for that referral.
Sounds easy, and it is. Again, this is just a way for big corporations to target some of their marketing dollars direct to consumers. Take advantage of it and let them buy you a brand new Nintendo Wii! All you have to do is click on this link to get started:
[Even if you’re retired, you sometimes have those days]
Try this out:
On your way home from work, stop at your pharmacy and go to the thermometer section and purchase a rectal thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson
Be very sure you get this brand. When you get home, lock your doors, draw the curtains and disconnect the phone so you will not be disturbed.
Change into very comfortable clothing and sit in your favorite chair. Open the package and remove the thermometer. Now, carefully place it on a table or a surface so that it will not become chipped or broken.
Now the fun part begins.
Take out the literature from the box and read it carefully. You will notice that in small print there is a statement:
’Every Rectal Thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson is personally tested and then sanitized. ’
Now, close your eyes and repeat out loud five times,‘I am so glad I do not work in the thermometer quality control department at Johnson & Johnson.’
HAVE A NICE DAY; AND REMEMBER, THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEONE ELSE WITH A JOB THAT IS MORE OF A PAIN IN THE _ THAN YOURS!
