This CD contains over 1600 photos submitted by members of our Dept56 egroup. Most of the photos you will see were taken in 2002 and early 2003. Since this is the first time we have compiled photos, we also have a good selection of photos from earlier years as well.

The CD has been formatted like a web page -- so you can navigate it the same way you are used to browsing the web. If you see a photo you like, you can even add it to your favorites in your browser -- just be aware that you need to have the CD in your drive when you click on the link! All of the photos are in JPEG format and have been optimized for viewing on your screen.

Each person was asked to submit descriptions along with their photos. So each page you view will be slightly different -- especially the way names of files may appear along with their descriptions. Not to worry -- any underlined text is a clickable link to the appropriate photo.

Enjoy!
