Alas poor PowerShot, I knew you well…

*sigh* My lovely, lit­tle Canon Pow­er­Shot S500 is effec­tively dead. I’m get­ting this blend of pur­ple color across all my pho­tos. I’ve tried cor­rect­ing the pho­tos in GIMP, but the way the pur­ple blends across about half the image makes it extremely dif­fi­cult to do so. I’ll keep pok­ing at it and maybe try load­ing CHDK on it to see if that fixes it. And before you ask, yes the extended war­ranty ran out a month ago. *dou­ble sigh*
