Wedding Woes

WDWWT?

A close family member gets married.  Several months later you ask if they ever got photo proofs.  Yes, they did.  Did they forget to send you the link?  Oh, silly us.  But here are some printed proofs let us know what you want.  We'll be putting in an order soon. 

So you list your favorites and look forward to the pictures.  A year passes with no pictures, but some pretty big things have happened for them - major job changes, a close death, a baby is on the way.  

Next year they ask you what you would like for Christmas and you say that you would LOVE nothing more than framed wedding and baby pics. 

Christmas comes and you get a framed baby pic, but no wedding picture. 

You notice that they put up wedding pictures at their house, so you ask about prints and they tell you that they scanned the 5x5 proofs and printed them themselves (aka stole them).  You remind them that you would love a photo some day.

On their next anniversay they post on FB what is obviously an iphone pic of one of the wedding pictures on their wall at home. You copy the pic onto your computer, print a fuzzy 8x10 and hang it on your wall.

Who is more crazy here?  The couple or the Facebook photo printer?

I just a friendly gal looking for options.

    [QUOTE]That's a circle jerk of crazy. And FB photo printing reminds me of my friend's STBX(maybe?)MIL, who got impatient with my friend taking too long to make a scrapbook for her of pics of my friend's sons (it took her, like, a month to make the books)  that she printed and framed my friend's FB pics and put them all over her house.

    MIL used to print photos off FB and frame them.  They looked like crap--she didn't even crop them, per se, just fit whatever she could in whichever frame was closest and cut off the rest.

    Good times.
