Nicely done Parker!!!

A couple of suggestions ... we'd like a girth to check out the formula on this one since you got a real live weight!

If you're going to give a girl a middle name after a river, at least make it a "real" one like the "Hoh" ...

oh my, for a girl that wouldn't work too well, would it :p laugh

Better bring us one when you come out in a couple of weeks smile Corey's got a spot all ready for it!

Yeah, names that were shotdown include:

Katherine Nooksack Parker
Katherine Humptulips Parker
Ima Hoh Parker (ouch)
Richard Sauk Parker (that poor sob!)

Ok. I'll stop. I'm cracking myself up. This is just way too much fun and way too dangerous! laugh

Tell Corey I'll be hand delivering the photo soon. Oh, and holler my way if she wants one in a particular size.

Wow pretty cool, nice job.

How do those photos look when printed on that special photo paper from a home printer. Are they close to a real photo?

Yup.

A good 6 color injet printer on the high-gloss film paper is darn near identical to a print. I've got photos in my office that you could not tell if it's a print or off of the printer.

Fading and image degridation over time has been an issue with older inkjet images. Epson has sorta always been the foremost leader in inkjet imaging, and their new printers and inks will supposedly produce a final image that will last 100 years. Printers and ink are only getting better and better.

The key starts with a photo that has a *lot* of information in it. For the web, the above photo is 28K. For printing, that same photo will be 50MB. This particular photo was taken off of 5MP digital SLR camera.

Just remember to ALWAYS use the highest image quality setting on your digital cameras. You can always shrink a photo, but you can not make a small photo large (to print).

Great job Parker, and congratulations to you and your wife........a beautiful baby!
My last one is named called Sky also for Skylar, although I ussually don't travel north unless I am headed to the Fraser.

It'll be hard leavin the little critter home to hit the river, as you are probably learning already. One of those wake up calls that reminds us there are a few things as important as fishing......or is that supposed to be "more" important than fishing?

Good Luck Daddy.
