A "do it yourself" digital pictureframe I made from an old IBM Thinkpad 600 laptop. The project was inspired by this guy's version I found online www.tacosntonic.com/pictures/Projects/Digital Picture Frame/
Don't mind the unsightly power cord, this was taken during the initial wall hanging and test.
The frame/laptop is equipped with a USB wifi card and automatically updates the pictures from my flickr account using the screensaver "Slickr". I also installed a VNC program so I can control the laptop remotely if I need to.
If you have an old laptop kicking around thats to slow for anything else I'd suggest making a similar project.
This limited edition art print is given the divine treatment with this gorgeous, high-gloss, ornate, Italian moulding. The traditional frame with the vivid lacquer incorporates old world beauty with a sleek modern finish.

frame 27
Matte size (in): 4x4
Frame outer size (in): 8x8
Material: tongue and groove pine flooring
Source (approx age): Residential House, South Buffalo, NY (approx 1900)
Price: 20.00
4x4 inch (matte size) picture or photo frame.
Made from recycled flooring from a green deconstructed house in south Buffalo, New York. several houses were deconstructed and the materials salvaged by Action Reuse (reuseaction.com or see their photo set on flickr). The houses were removed for expansion of a nearby hospital. the wood is flooring that is approximately 100 years old and is yellow pine. It bears the mark of years and untold numbers of feet tromping across it. Most was/is being recycled into new flooring but I liked the color and grain and marking on it. The original tongue can be seen around the edges and the former groove is now the rabbet that holds the glass. Each piece is mitered and biscuit joined together so they are quite sturdy.
The glass is also reclaimed from old stock or salvaged window frames. Each is finished with water based polyurethane finish and has keyholes for hanging. The only parts that aren't recycled are the biscuits, glue and glazier's points so they are ecologically friendly (if only a little in the total scheme). But these make a beautiful statement about the the preciousness and the futility of throwing so much away in the landfills.
This weeks theme for "Me Again Monday" is "Framed"
Before the theme was even announced I had this idea in my head. I did one like this when I first got photoshop,(In comments) but I didn't have a clue what I was doing really back then. (Some may say I still don't!!!)
Anyway.......
HMAM everyone.

I was at the library taking an online Biology test and I wasn't feeling well, so I used the restroom. And I saw this.....no picture in a frame. Looks like it had been there a long time.
My first mosaic in a couple of years, thanks to the mosaic challenge group for getting me motivated again. Funny how the last deadline is the first met. All glass bits in various white and black shades on a wood picture frame base. Not very large, about 10" square.
Vintage Canada Post Mail bag. Basic black frame and backboard creates a neutral backdrop for displaying this weathered piece.

I dismantled a picture frame and found paper packing leading to an obituary from 1917. Sobering Sunday.
