If you use Instagram, did you decide to do your #2015bestnine? The website "2015bestnine" (dot com) will compile your nine most liked photos from last year into 1 photo grid. After seeing everyone's photos on Instagram, I couldn't resist. Here's mine:



The site was easy to use and my grid was ready in less than 5 minutes! The site added the header and footer shown in the photo. The results were a pleasant surprise to me. Some photos that I thought would be popular, weren't the most popular and vice versa. Are you thinking about using the site? Please read my P.S. section at the end of this post for a note (missive!) of caution. 

To see more of my Instagram photos, just click the Instagram link in my sidebar.

Thanks for stopping by!
Love,

P.S.
All is well with my MAC computer now, but if you decide to use the site ("2015bestnine") proceed with caution. While using it, a pop-up message appeared saying I had a virus!

I had only used my computer that day to get my #2015best nine photo grid. So, if I really had a virus, I figured it came from them. So, I tried to exit the page, and got another pop-up...

According to the Geek Squad (computer repair specialists), if you have a virus, you won't be notified! I wish I knew it at the time! Instead, I followed the instructions that popped up to REMOVE the "virus" and in doing so, put my computer at risk. I knew I had anti-virus or some type of security software on my computer, but I couldn't remember what it was called! (Embarrassing!)

NOTE TO SELF: Know what security measures are on your computer. Write the name(s)down and keep the information somewhere accessible.

I finally got wise once "MacKeeper" (my so-called online friends that were going to remove the virus) did a partial free removal, and then asked for money to complete the removal. I knew whatever security system I had in place was already paid for. So, I shut down my computer immediately and took it to be repaired! I feel pretty silly for falling for the whole mess, but everything looked so legit, so - - - official:

I'm glad I took pictures along the way to share. I think I felt weird about the whole process and that's why I decided to take pics. Luckily, there was no damage to my computer. And I didn't give out any financial information. I hope others are as lucky. LESSON LEARNED. Thank you Geek Squad!
