You can touch up your photos with Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005. Fix red eye, adjust the contrast, and crop your pictures, all with your remote control. First, copy your pictures from your camera to your Media Center computer. Then, follow these steps to make your pictures look better:

1. Press the Green Start Button on your remote to open the Media Center Start menu, and then select My Pictures
    
   
2. Highlight the picture you want to edit, and press the MORE INFO button on your remote. Select Picture Details.
    

   Tip: Repeated changes to the same image can affect its quality. Before you edit your pictures, it's a good idea to make a copy of the original image and edit that copy. Your original image will be preserved in case you need it.

    
   
3. On the Picture Details page, select Rotate repeatedly until the picture is oriented the way you want it.
    
   
4. To perform additional editing, select Touch Up.

   Fix any flawed pictures immediately after copying them to your computer so your pictures will always be ready for printing or a slide show. For more advanced picture editing, including automatically adjusting color, fixing poor lighting, and removing blemishes, you can use a photo editing program like Microsoft Digital Image Suite 2006.
   
   Now that you have touched up your photos, show them off. With Media Center, you can do a lot with your pictures. View, share, and organize your digital photos—even play them in a slide show on your TV.
