Today's Public Service Announcement: How not to submit a photo to a newspaper

1. That seems to be how some of my relatives share their photos, too

I had one take those ugly inkjet scans and make a low resolution Video CD of the family photos I'd been trying to get her to share for years. Yeah, that's real useful.

I haven't found the software to extract those ugly pictures from the video. I haven't tried real hard because the usefulness of those over processed, degraded pictures is pretty much nil. The resolution is so bad I can't even stand to watch the video. And she threw in every single transition effect that came with her video software just to make it even less watchable.
