THE PROBLEM
If you take pictures, it is very difficult to put the pictures together in a way that you can find them quickly. Not only that, but in the world we live today, most friends, family and businesses are very far apart.

THE HISTORY
My family live in CA, AZ & AR. I wanted to share pictures that we had taken with other members of the family. My photo service offered an option to put photos on a diskette but the pictures were not of very good quality and the presentation was lacking. The pictures just kind of sat there and were difficult to view.
Over a year's time, I tried other services, but was not pleased. I purchased equipment and many software packages, but again, I was not pleased. I did not give up. Through "trial and error", I found a combination of equipment and software that pleased myself and family. We will continue to refine our process updating equipment and software that gives the best results.
We started this business because we thought other people needed to accomplish this same task but do not have the equipment or patience to do it.

METHODOLOGIES to consider
The Interest / Need.
You need to have an interest to accomplish the task of putting pictures together in such a way that creats an interesting presentation.
The Equipment.
You need equipment to scan photos into the computer. (This is just the beginning - well, maybe you need to take the pictures first)
The Software.
You need software to help in organizing the photos.

SERVICES OFFERED
Over time, we have put together a combination of systems that are free standing (self running) that satisfies our needs that can be sent via E-mail to friends and family (depending on E-mail capabilities at each end) and feel you will be very satisfied as well. Please download our FREE samples and check for yourself.
The cost is $5 for each JPG digital photo or $10 for each photo (flyer, brochure, map, menu up to 8.5 by 11) that needs to be scanned. For these prices you not only receive a photo album but a slide show and screen saver, all with the same pictures. (It used to cost me $10 just to scan one picture with NO album / slide show / screen saver)

Things to take into consideration:
- Photo group order.
- Title of photo group. (optional)
- Caption (description) that will display under each picture. (optional)
- Each output file is a stand alone executable.
It is best to keep the photo groups as small as possible so that you (and we) can E-mail the files easily.
For a group of 18 photos, each executable (Album, Slide Show & Screen Saver) is around 1.7 mega bites.
For a group of 5 photos, each executable is around .6 mega bites.
But again, we have completed a group of 26 photos with each executable (Album, Slide Show & Screen Saver) is around 1 mega bites. So it is hard to predict the size of your groups until we do it. The point is, we can put photos together into mutiple groups with no added cost (just the per picture cost).
