Anyway, there is a website that I read about in the New York Times that you must check out if you have masses of old photos sitting around that you'd love to have on your computer, but just can't find the time to scan them or like me, you just don't want to take the time to scan them.
There is a service now that does all of that for you! ScanMyPhotos.com will scan 1,000 photos for $50.00 for you and put it on a disk for you. The turn-around time on the service is supposed to be very quick. They'll even scan negatives, slides, etc. for you, although the pricing is different on that. I'm really thinking of getting that done to my pictures before I move in a few months. I'd love to have all my loose photos on a disk so I can have them on my computer rather than just laying in my desk drawer. I told my mom about it this weekend and she was just as excited as I was. We have TONS of pictures at home that I know she'd really like to be scanned.
So if you are like my family and have tons of photos lying around, do yourself a favor and check out the website. It's my find of the year!
