Each frame has a card reader that makes viewing pictures easy. Just slip the memory card out of your camera and into a frame, and your pictures simply appear. But to get the most out of a digital frame, you will probably want to run a slide show, displaying the pictures one at a time.

Five years ago, this Harvard grad left his job as assistant editor for the Vertigo comics imprint—the branch of DC Comics responsible for publishing “V for Vendetta,” as well as many other mature-reader-oriented titles—to move back in with his parents and start from scratch. The goal: become a comic book artist in his own right. The path: quite dark and twisted indeed. Chiang was a trailblazer in his undergrad days as a joint concentrator in English and Visual and Environmental Studies...
