Pics of your LO

Do you have lots of pics of your LO?  If so, how do you organize them all (online storage/scrapbooks/blogs/etc)?

Also, does anyone here use/recommend Flickr or Shutterfly?  Looking for an easy way to share pics with family and friends while also storing lots.

Re: Pics of your LO

  • I send out the best ones on my blog. the rest are just for me. there are few people who want the onslaught of 10000's of pictures we have taken already
  • Loading the player...
  • I have an XP and it organized photos wonderfully.  But date or title, what ever you chose. 

    I use snapfish.com and like it.  But, I have never tried any others, so not sure how it compares.

  • I use Lightroom to organize but for the average person I recommend Picasa because it's free.  I also print my favorites and put them in a regular album.

    I back my photos up to an external, discs, and online (Shutterfly).  Flickr is great, but it costs money per year to upload unlimited amounts of photos. 

    Shutterfly is free and never deletes your photos after so much time unlike some places and its unlimited space (also unlike some places such as Picasa).  

    ETA:  I post low resolution files to my blog so no one else can make prints.  Also, so I don't run out of space nearly as fast.  I see a lot of people uploading high resolution files to theirs and I don't think they realize there is a space limit with Blogger (Picasa).  After you run out of room you have to buy more space.

  • I use my Mr T Blog (below).  Its a great way to just put it up there for family and friends to see...I don't have to send them out each time and its a cute way to organize.  I also plan on doing scrapbooks...most likely my winter hobby! 
  • i have tons and i use shutterfly and snapfish.
  • Mine aren't organized at all.  I just renewed my Flickr Pro account today and really need to utilize the site to get them organized.  I use FB to share them with family and friends.

  • I have a lot of pics of DD. They're organized on my computer, in my FB and at WalMart.com by the month they were taken.

    Make sure Walmart doesn't delete after a certain period of time if that's your online back-up method...they used to. I'd hate you to lose all your photos on your computer one day then you log-in to Walmart and some of your older ones were gone as well. Facebook is nice for sharing, but shouldn't be used as back-up as they compress the photos. Not sure if that was your intentions at all either.
  • I have thousands of pictures I am sure...I love to take pictures of DS! I load them all on my computer and have a file just for him in my pictures. Then I put them into sub-folders by his month age (before 1 month, 1 month, 2 months etc) I also upload to shutterfly to order and create a digital scrapbook. I also put them on facebook for friends to see.
  • I like shutterfly, I think they have the best quality of photo out of all the online photo sites.  Plus they are always running deals... I got $20 off $20 purchase for registering at target and than the next week they sent me a thing to get a free 8x8 photo book.
