iPhoto + Apple + Kodak = Scramble Button
So another humorous situation happened yesterday. One of my 'projects' here in Arizona is to put all the pictures that I've taken in the last couple of years into albums (they're just sitting in my computer and I thought printing them out would be nice). This is a huge task, so I'm taking it a little bit at a time. Last Friday I ordered 400 pictures which is about a 6 month span of photos. I clicked the 'order prints' button on my iPhoto application thinking that would be the easiest way to order the pictures. After hours of uploading the pics to Kodak, I was done. Yesterday, the package came in the mail and I was super excited! I had an album all ready to put the pics in! Then when I opened the package, I saw that there were only 300 pictures, so I assume that the other 100 is coming in a separate package later. Well, no big deal, I can just start putting the 300 in the album. As I started to flip through the pictures in the envelopes, I realized that THEY ARE ALL IN SOME RANDOM ORDER!! There'd be one from a baby shower, then the next is one of my family in Arizona, then one of Sof's wedding, then one from Christmas! So I thought, well maybe when I uploaded the pictures, I did it out of order? So I checked the order confirmation that Apple sent me, and it listed every single picture that I ordered, in the exact order that I had uploaded them, which is chronological! So when they printed the pictures, they decided to just put them in some random order for fun?! When I told my sister about this, she asked if I hit the 'scramble my pictures' button, LOL. Apparently it must be a promotional 'free' trial of the scramble feature cuz I didn't even have to pay extra for it. So now I have to wait until the next 100 pictures arrive. Then sit with my 400 pics in front of my computer, and put them all in the correct order (good thing I have the time to do it, haha!) I sent them an email to tell them about this ridiculousness.

Nice ! what a wonderful way to test your memory of what moment came first...just think, thanks to you, some one down the line will invent the "unscramble" button and make life easier for everyone else... :)
