277 pictures on this one and 5-1/2 hours on site.

Automotive parts store that moved out and owner wanted to know the condition of her building. But who did the modifications.? That is the big question. Building was originally owned by her Father and she does not know when it happened.

Structural beam added mid-span of some bar joist supporting the second floor where parts were stored. I don't know how it held up.

The main building is 90 years old and the addittion unknown.

Here are just a few pics for now. I had bought a new camera and forgot to change the setting and have to resize all pictures to post here.












I'll try to post more later.  Smiley

Well, it will be a long time on the report, cause I just found out that due to the size of my pictures, and quantity, HIP won't batch download. I found a way to download them one by one, but that will take forever. \

Ahwell, live and learn.

Got all day tomorrow until the huricane hits and loose power.  Grin

I never downloaded that many pictures in HIP before with big files, maybe Dom has a way of doing it, or it just takes time to download due the size of the pics.

Try using your Windows Resizer, then do your batch upload.

Marcel, some older computers have a hard time with really large pics, make sure to reduce your resolution for next time. If you don't have windows resizer try http://imageresizer.codeplex.com/ which is another free program that will resize for you. Then you can batch add no problem.

Well just got done, 121 pictures made it to the report, but had to manually put them in 4 at a time. That really sucked.
Ahwell, live and learn. Reset the camera settings so it don't happen again.

A few more pictures.

Well, we got to make room for the overhead door.


We need head room for the stairs too!

Went by today and drove around the building and noticed some repairs are being made.
It appears the Owner managed to get the previous Leasse to make repairs on some of the things I found.
Interesting.

By the way, I did this report using HIP for the first time.
HIP is adaptable to anything you want it to be.

My thanks to Dominic to make this possible.   Smiley

Just for you guys struggling with the large photo batch loads, download "Photoscape". It's free and it has an excellent batch editing tool which will reduce 200 photos in about 30 seconds.  Here's a link:

Cameron, are you having an issue batch adding large pics from within HIP?

No, but I started using photoscape to caption and annotate my photos during the losses because I would lose all my annotations in HIP when the photos disappeared.  I have used Photoscape for my own personal photos too at times and the batch editor does a good job of shrinking lots of photos at once.  Marcel said he was inserting them 4 at a time due to their size. I've not had a problem, but I'm starting with a 5.0 megapixel camera so my photos aren't too big.

Oh, and I also considered reducing photos for longterm storage just to save space, but I think the orignals wouldn't take much space.
