Does anyone use old fashion photo albums anymore?  |
|
I have a few "old fashion" picture albums but they are not really full since i have gotten a computer most my pictures go on disk or floppies or I store them on my computer. What do you do since now we have what we can call Disk albums which all we have to so if slip into a computer or CD player and view them. I much prefer the disk and floppies they take up less space and you can copy them easier so everyone can have a copy at less then it would cost to buy all of the pictures. So what do you do? I know it is hard to carry a disk around and say hey here in this disk is my sister or grand baby. But again technology raced to the forefront and digital frames were made. Do you have one? I want one but that is maybe a gift for Christmas next year.

1. ScarletAlston (2326) | 10 months ago | I wanted a digital frame so I can do something about all these pictures of my friends and my new baby but instead I just let them scroll my computer screen as my screensaver..there is an actual photo album here that my mother put all the pictures in..I just put that in the closet because it is really no use to me..I prefer my sidekick and my computer to store my pictures..its saves so much space..

mtdewgurl74 (10309) | 10 months ago | Yep, it does,my photo albums are put up in a box also and put away. I would be lost without my handy dandy computer and disk to store everything on.Thanks for the response I appreciate it. Just think of how much paper is saved by not having to have pictures developed or printed off so we can stuff them onto albums to basically never be seen but a few times of year or less. So maybe computers and digital is the New "green" way to go for photos...saves trees also...

2. lologirl2021 (1596) | 10 months ago | I still use photbooks and nothing on disk.
I use the photobooks because for me it is easier to sit down with someone and go through the pictures and explain them to someone. I like the photo alubum because i can organize my pictures, i have an album of just cruise pictures and i have an album of just me and my boyfriend when he go on trips ourself or just us around town.
If pictures are on a disc i feel that people wont be able to get the pictures they want if they do want to get some. I believe a disc you can give to someone and they will see the pictures on there computer of course, but there like well what the heck is this and you might not be right there with them to explain it to them. They could watch the pictures at there own time and with ou not around and i dont really like it that way.
Photalbums might be the old way of sowing pictures but its my way and i like that.

mtdewgurl74 (10309) | 10 months ago | When someone wants a photo, I just have them choose the one they want and either print it off or have the disk taken to a photo shop and have them print of the digital photos that is wanted. I like being able to view them on the television cause I can zoom them bigger if needed and they are great at get together so not just a few are hogging the albums that all can view the television easier then the book albums. I still use my photo albums to stow photos in that others give me or a few that I print off. Thanks for the response to my discussion. Have a good day.

3. hibiscus_mel (396) | 10 months ago | Yes, I do still have some old photo albums and go to the store to have my pictures printed. I like to design my photo albums into a scrapbook on times I feel bored. I think I am still a pretty old fashion person.

mtdewgurl74 (10309) | 10 months ago | I am getting ready to make my niece a photo album for her pictures of her new baby she had a week ago.. I think they are still good for photos that are developed for those who still do that sort of thing. I just find it simpler for me to have all those pictures on a disc. Or a site where I can reach them readily.

4. royal52gens (3285) | 10 months ago | I still use the old fashioned photo albums. I use them for making scrapbooks for my children. I find it a creative outlet. The photos on my computer are nice but I also like my photo books.

mtdewgurl74 (10309) | 10 months ago | My mom loves to take photos of us and edit them with fun house photos shops where she can take our heads and put them on other bodies and make them to be nice or silly. But sometimes I had found that since I didn't have the same software I was unable to view some of the pictures she redid. So yeah albums will never go out of style but might not be first choice as much now days. Thanks for the response I hope you have a very nice day. Love your avatar..a gift from Bo..? I love Novas as well and the others I have seen..

mtdewgurl74 (10309) | 10 months ago | Seems even though it is the age of technology alot of people are still using the old fashion way to store their photos. Our photos are our history and it is amazing ot be able to look back at the past and think wow was that me or look at dads got hair or molly had braces and things like that.I seriously doubt I would have been able to survive in my grandparents time. Things were hard but they had alot of love to share and I am glad to be able to view the photos of them at their 1st to their 50th wedding anniversary and their birthdays and special occasion., I thank you very much for your response. Have a good day.

mtdewgurl74 (10309) | 10 months ago | I am hoping to get a few USB memory sticks so I can carry my photos around easier then a disk and will be able view them faster. When I had my album out the kids basically was looking at them everyday several times a day like they couldn't get enough. I had to start gluing the photos in because they were always taking them out and messing with them and the the page stopped being sticky and holding the photos. They wouldn't do it while I was in the room cause they knew better. Thanks for the response.

mtdewgurl74 (10309) | 10 months ago | It is good to have a few in the albums. So he will be able to take them and show his kids when he is older and maybe married. Thanks for the response I appreciate it.

hiccup (6438) | 10 months ago | As you may see Im back as HICCUP/, and in my post to you I forgot for a moment FIRES, as you would know my State has had FIRES here for over three weeks.
Like you say, in fire you will loose the lot. And thats what has happened here, some people have lost everything, but it must be hard when the PHOTOS are gone.
How sad that is for them, I know how I felt when I seen what happened to my photos in the the flooded house of mine.
I now try to cover all areas, so if the worst happens I still have my photos.

9. winterose (17607) | 10 months ago | gee that is a great question, I don't know, I don't do any kind of pictures, but come to think about it, my grandson's mother still takes pictures with a camera, and has an albumn, she just got a computer but many of the people she knows still doesn't have one.

mtdewgurl74 (10309) | 10 months ago | Hi Winterose, thanks for stopping by I appreciate it. Sometimes it is hard to forget that not everyone has a computer. People give us photos and we do put them in a album but the ones I take I just copy it on a disk or floppy because it is cheaper for me since I can't afford alot of developing of the pictures.
