I read somewhere that in the near future people won't have photographs hanging on their walls. Instead they will have flat screens that show slide shows, which you can program accordingly. I think that's a great idea. That might be cheaper than moving.

There you go Hannelore. Perfect. I'm sure this will happen very soon, but I still like holding the photos in my hand and seeing them displayed in albums.

I don't know about you but I'm all confused with my photos the past few years. Some are on the lap top, some are on the kids computers, some are still in the camera, and only a few are printed.

What's everyone doing with photos these days? Are you still printing everything?

mine are onnthe computer or copied onto disks. I also miss having them in photo albums or disorginised shoe boxes lol...it gets a bit scarrie incase a cd gets lost or brok when it holds over 600 photos on it....

yea slide show flate screens good concept for some types of photos. JJ something else to spill paint on????

i miss old photos especillie ones mum had and i rember both us looking at them and they a bit more presciouse becouse she actulie held them in her hand....i dont get that sentimental over a silver cd with 100's on it kinda losses a bit of the personalisasion.

I have them in albums, I do some scrapbooking, I have them on CD's and in the pc. I also have what is called a Pciture Book. My husband got it for me for our anniversary. We got it in Brookstone store in NH on sale. I can put a memory stick from my camera right in it and show slide shows of what's on there or I can download them into it from the pc. It's a nice toy. It holds thousands of photos.

Yeah, I figure I'll be painting in the room where the flat screen resides and I can't seem to paint ANY where without spilling paint. I even get it on my eyelashes.

I have both Dots...on the computer and in albums. What do I prefer? Both, but for different reasons. I like the online so that I can send pictures without cost to my friends that live far away and give them a touch of "home."

I like albums so that on days when I want to enjoy my past, I can sit with a good cup of java and flip through the albums, tissue in hand, and travel down memory lane.

Both have their place for me. Overall, give me a album though.

I'm funny about this. I want them all in the same place. I don't like the interruption of having missing chunks of time in the albums or photo boxes because some are on the computer. Know what I mean? This is why I still haven't gone digital. Hubby and kids are, but I'm not.

Sometimes late at night when I have been missing my boys, I pull out the photo albums and relive in my heart all the wonderful times. Thats why I keep my photo albums up to date and handy. I will never go digital.

Oh chatty, another stickler for photo albums. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only photo dinosaur.
