"Managing Your Digital Shoebox" offers you ingenious yet easy-to-follow guidelines for managing thousands of photos so you can quickly find and use a picture you took last week, or last year. Many people like you rely on software programs that file your photos automatically. But what happens when a better program comes along? Can you transfer those files? And what about today's storage devices - will they still be in use five years from now? Or next month? "Managing Your Digital Shoebox" puts your mind at ease by addressing those concerns and much more. With this book, you will: learn a photo-management strategy that's not dependent on specific software or hardware; discover the seven most important things you need to do to keep photos organized, available, and secure; get clear directions for setting up your computer, camera, and external hard-drive; and, keep your images safe and well-organized no matter what technical advancements may come along.
"Managing Your Digital Shoebox" is a fun reference for any hobbyists or casual photographers overrun by their own image archives. From the moment you take a photo, you'll understand what to do to store, share, and print the image - and enjoy it for generations to come.
