Photogs

[toddy]

I have about 3 years of pictures on my i-phone and would like to store them before I drop it in the lake. Anybody have any experience with any of the products that claim to store your pictures easily. "easily" being the key word. Photostick is a product I have seen advertised. Anybody have experience with these kinds of products?

Down load them to your computer and burn them to CD's.

I buy the cloud for 99 cents/month to provide backup...cause most of my phones get drowned every year or two. Then I also download the phone pics to my pc, and copy them over to a portable hard drive...that way I don't need to find an antique CD reader in the future...

You can also buy a large thumb drive that plugs into the bottom of IPhone, best to download to pc than get put on thumbdrive or external drive as above.

CDs are going to be like vhs or cassettes in 5 years. Can hardly find a computer with a CD drive anymore. C’mon man!!

Save to a PC and put on a couple thumb drives, one for the safety deposit box and one for at home. USB will always be compatible, at the very least with an adapter piece. CD disc drives may be harder to come by in a few years.

I dont trust much of anything so I like to copy to multiple places. I simply went to Walmart and purchased hmmmm I dont remember what they were called, but download to your computer first, then download to ----- maybe it was called photo book. Anyway I download to three of them and each has four terabytes.

Like Bauer said, download, duplicate, store at multiple locations. Pictures are moments in time, once lost, lost forever.

You still have your pictures, you can upload them to walmart and have them printed in a couple hours for pennies each... Now you can take LITTERALLY thousands of pictures on your phone that are WAY better quality and have them within a few HOURS of your excursions for 1/10th the PRICE you paid back then and the digital age sucks... lol
