2020 Scan-A-Thon Selfie Time!

Question

Share photos with us of you scanning!

Take a picture with your scanner, with boxes, with photos scattered all over the floor.

We love to see what you are doing and your set up!!!

Answer 1

Yeah, this is how my desk usually looks. If you look closely, you'll also see my practice chanter right above the keyboard. Leaning the bagpipes while WikiTreeing!  Suas Alba!

Comments

Thank you for sharing Pip! :)

You took a selfie with us Pip! Haha

---

Yup, there y’all be!

---

Great photographs Pip!! Thanks for sharing

---

Love it Pip!

---

Wooho there you are Pip, love the desk..always sitting at the dinner table here, so that's my 'desk' now. 

---

Oooo, if I did that, my wife would have a few words for me!!

---

hahaha I ''own'' this corner of the table , my hubby has hobbies in our backyard..pigeons, all kinds of birds, ..and he likes to play harmonica and guitar (still trying to learn how to play guitar, but he's making progress ) but practices inside, so he doesn't complain when I'm WikiTreeing in my 'corner' ..and...with bagpipes you mean the actual Scottish bagpipes right ? (love it but glad my hubby isn't trying to learn that, I think our neighbors would go nuts :P)

(waving)  Hi Mags!

---

How is your desk so NEAT?!?!

---

They say a messy desk is a sign of a sane mind...just saying.

---

Aah Mags so great to see you, and yes I heard the same about the neat desk (and house) and wauw look at that screen (or screens?)

Comments

Yay Sarah!!

Looking great Sarah !

Answer 5

And another live chat shot! ;) You can see my very fancy laptop stand.

Comments

lol that's actually pretty funny

---

You got out the "good furniture" Katie! I have "china" that matches that!! lol

---

Too cool. A set-up I could live with!

---

Your furniture is portable and recyclable!  All good things!

---

Haha looking great girl and love the stand 

Answer 6

Ok, here is Len. Our printer/scanner is acting up so we used a phone app

Comments

Woo hi Len!

That's how I've been doing it, as my scanner is acting up too (I think you passed your bad luck onto me).

---

I’ve done that before, too, Len!

---

Hahaha where would we be without phones / photocamera's or other apps eeh. No scanner here either, and no phone myself, so using a photo camera or asking help from family members who own phones 

Answer 7

Pip-- You have too neat an area. This is more what a genealogist's computer area should look like in the midst of a Scan A Thon....There are three computers and one large image enhancer. Also see second hobby in background: needlepoint tapestry.

This is as much of a selfie as I can manage tonight. (The white blanket covers a mess that I keep covered).

Comments

Nice setup Judy  and thanks for joining us at the video hangout this morning!

---

You definitely got a wider view. My boxes and scattered books were hidden in my photo. But, you’re right, I need more tech like you!!

---

hahaha you so made me laugh ... the white blanket did it girl ..just cover up that mess 

---

Also that clutter would just have confused the picture.

Answer 8

Our awesome hangout if u missed it

Comments

This is my favorite!

---

Taking a selfie

---

With our little visitor - how adorable is he?

---

Our little cutie Andrew

---

I just love that bear selfie Sarah - cracks me up!! 

---

Andrew, a WikiTreer in the making!

---

Great hangout Mindy and a really cute visitor, quite distracting eeh, these little visitors 

---

When did Andrew show up in the chat?

I cannot see him unless he was edited out?

---

That was the chat where we had all animals. This screenshot was before the video went live on YouTube. He was so fascinated with the animals!

---

Thanks Mindy!!

Answer 9

Here's my desk setup for the weekend. Don't look at the messiness LOL

Comments

Yay Debi - thank you for sharing!! :)

---

Haha Debi, I'm sure we all have the same sort of 'messiness' during the 'thons', got to have everything within reach eeh 

---

Lookin good Debi!

---

Not messy enough! 

---

LOL I was VERY selective on the angle. Most messiness was hidden to the left of the standing desk. That, coupled with my saddle chair, prevented the backache that I usually get. Both are new, within the month and I'm really enjoying them. I see that was also made before I switched to portable keyboard with touchpad. That opened up the right side for more stuff to be laid out there too LOL

---

I need more "spread out" room. The stacks are just getting higher and higher! 

Answer 10

Jeaay Scan-a-Thon 2020 and finally time for ..''sort of'' a 'selfie'..lol..our granddaughter (age 2) was running around, and keeping us all quite busy and distracted from Saturday afternoon until about an hour ago, tried to Scan-a-thon with her at my lap, and jeaay, she liked it a lot but the most fun she had was in trying to pull the letters of of the keyboard ..she's like a little tornado, but we had fun ! And wauw isn't it amazing how great everyone is doing, so cool to see these huge numbers at the tracker !

and here's the little 'tornado' ..always having fun and her 'happy head' says it all eeh 

And here she is at our Christmas dinner table  (now the scan-a-thon desk)

 

Comments

Awww, what cuties Bea!! I bet you enjoy them. 

---

Thanks and sure do Mindy, she is just one (and busy for two)  And one of our wonderful team members said one of the images wasn't working so tried to change something are they all visible now ?

Bummers..have to ranger and think I'm late, so have to rrrrun

Granddaughter?!?! You’re not old enough!
