In the past, photo printers have been too pricey to give as gifts, but this holiday season, you can find a wide assortment of printers designed to print 4-by-6-inch snapshots for little more than $100. Even better: The ongoing cost of consumables--the price per page for paper and ink--is in the same neighborhood as buying prints at an online photo printing Web site. For some smart gift ideas, check out PC World's recentroundup of photo printers.

This week's Hot Pic:"Roadside Attraction," by David Lykes Keenan, Austin, Texas
David writes: "This colorful scene appeared on the side of Interstate 35 between Austin and Waco. I took the picture with a Ricoh GR-D digital camera and then processed it in Photoshop CS2 (I did a slight perspective shift, minor color and contrast adjustments, and added some high-pass filter sharpening)."

Charles writes: "Here is a picture I took while practicing depth-of-field shots for my first photography class. We had just talked about how to make moving water have a cotton-candy effect. I used a Nikon D70S camera on a tripod."
