Seven Ways for saving your digital images for ever!

Parents Roles In A Wedding
If you're a parent, your son or daughter's wedding day is the

day that you've simultaniously dreaded and looked .....
So, you have taken lots of pictures with your new digital

camera, the memory card is full, and you are wondering how to

store and archive your images.



1 Buy another memory card



The method of storing your images with least effort is to buy a

new memory card and keep your images on the first card. Taking

into account that memory cards are currently expensive, this

seems a costly way of archiving the images. In the longer term,

however, there may be some argument for this method as memory

card prices fall, which they progressively have. However as time

goes by the digital size of images (measured in megapixels) will

increases partly offsetting this factor.



2 Transfer your images on to your computer

Most if not all digital cameras come with a cable for connecting

the camera to a personal computer. The manufacturer has probably

provided software with that cable so that you can install the

software on to your computer, connect the cable and transfer

images from your camera onto your PC. Dont forget, if all else

fails read the instruction booklet! Once safely on your

computer hard drive, you can erase the memory of the camera and

before you erase them!



3 Burn your images onto a CDRom



Many home computers are now equipped with a CDRom writer. This

is probably the preferred way of archiving your images for years

to come. One word of warning though. Do not buy cheap recordable

CDs CDRs. Cheap discs are less reliable and we have found some

to be problematic. We have also found that rewritable disks

those that can be written once and then overwritten do not

work well in certain CD Drives. Best to use good quality write

once CDRs and carefully label them, storing them in cases for

protection. In due course CDs will be replaced by DVDs providing

greater memory capacity as image files increase in size.

4 Store your images on a public web site



If you are connected to the internet you will be able to find

sites on the world wide web which will store your images for

posterity. Furthermore, they may let others view your images, or

restrict access to them by a password. Some sites charge for

this service. What the long term prognosis is for any of these

sites is well who knows. But they might be useful in the

short term.



5 Print your images at home for viewing



You might want to put your images in an album to keep for

yourself and to show family and friends. Photo printers are

available for home use either from the manufacturer of your

camera or from another. The convenience of being able to print

your own images at home immediately will be offset by the cost

of consumables, which can be high, and the slow print speed of

many home printers. Further there has been discussion regarding

the longevity of the prints made at home compared with

conventional prints made on photographic paper.

6 Use a professional laboratory to make photographic prints.



A more practical way of printing your images is to take your

camera memory card or a CDRom to you local film processor for

prints. You will be able to collect your printed images either

the same or the next day and they will be photographic prints

with a very long life expectancy. The laboratory will be able to

crop your images or enlarge the full image or a section of it to

further enhance your photo.



7 Put your pictures on to a photo gift



For a lasting memento, why not put your pictures into a frame or

even get your laboratory to put them on a gist such as a mug or

mouse mat. Such object will have a long life and attract

interest and attention. To see some of the possibilities when it
