Free online photography classes?
I really need to get off my ass and learn how to use my DSLR. I googled, and got like 1000 options. 
I don't suppose anyone has one to recommend?

Re: Free online photography classes?
What would an online class offer?
You might be better off just reading your manual.
Two peas in a bucket has a 12 week crash course. Here's a link to the description:

Each week has a different topic, with assignments so you get to practice. This is week 1 in PDF format. You can access the additional PDFs for the rest of the weeks by deleting the one after week and putting two, and so on.

What brand do you have? I'm a canon person, so I prob won't be able to answer any nikon specific questions, but let me know if you have any other photography related questions!

I'm thinking that Lenox's link will be much easier to follow!
And, FWIW, your pics are pretty good already...totally better than D's friend's pics.

Further proof that you're a natural. Can't wait to see what you have to offer with the big camera and Lenox's link.
Have you even picked up your camera in months?

Months? Yes of course I've picked it up!
Dipite I agree, you take good pictures.
More like, "oh! There you are! Now I can go put you back in your bag where you belong and not in the garage next to my Berenstein Bears book collection I bought from the neighbor's yard sale!"

the berenstein bears.
dipitie, the online links above look great. google "pioneer woman photography," too, and look for the "photography basics" section somewhere on her site. it has really good, straightforward lessons on aperture, shutter speed, and ISO.
Auto 4 life!

Do you use it at all? If not, I would consider buying it from you.
WM - you don't want this one. It hasn't been treated well and I've dropped it a few times so you can't even wear a strap with it. I'd feel bad if you bought it from me and it went kapoot.
I don't know but after a few times of it falling off the strap, I figured it was broken. Wait, maybe it was just the stupid strap.
See? I clearly don't pay enough attention to it.
