 How
to share pictures or photos with other computers

Now days everyone has a digital camera and has photos
stored on their computer that they want to share with family and friends
around the world. We used to be limited in how we share files, however now
there are so many options available.
Here are some ways you can share pictures and
photos with other computers.
Email - In the old days of dialup internet
connections, sending a picture through email was not a good idea. To
download the email would take forever. Now that broadband and fast internet
connections are common, sending a picture or photo through email is easy and
downloads quickly. There are limits on how many you can send in one email.
This limit depends on your email host. Here's
how to attach
a picture to an email.
Save them to Disc - If you have hundreds of photos
to share with another computer it is easy to save them to a cd or DVD disc
to send in the snail mail. If you want to use a DVD, make sure the computer
you want to share with has a drive that will read a DVD. Here's
how to burn a cd with Windows.
Save them to USB Flash drive - USB flash drives
are the most useful device to have. You can put your files, photo's or
anything on it and then physically take it anywhere you like. When you want
to share what is on the USB flash drive, simply plug it in to the computer.
What is a USB flash drive?
Windows Live Messenger Sharing folder - This is a
great way to share pictures over the internet. Not only is the Windows Live
messenger free, but if you create a sharing folder the exchange of pictures
is almost instant.
Here's how to create a sharing folder.
Across a network - If you have a home network you
can easily share a picture by placing the photo in the folder you are
sharing. Other people on your network can access this and save to their
computer. Here's
how to see what files are shared on your network.
Put it on the internet - If you have a webpage or
a blog you can put a picture on that site for anyone to save to their
computer. If they go to your webpage and right click on the image, choose to
save picture as...the picture will be saved on their computer.
Notes:
-
You wouldn't even bother to print a
picture to share as you can send it to the other person to print
on their end.
-
You can also become a member of a photo
sharing site like www.flickr.com This
way you can store your pictures on the internet for free and share with
your friends at the same time.
