I'm sitting here, burning my photo's to CD, and it's taking a longggggggg time. A real longggggggggg time.
I smartened up a bit....and now I'm saving them to a USB drive.....still a little bit tedious, but it's faster than burning.
So...how do you people save your photos? If you burn them, is there a step I'm missing? Do you buy "special" cds???

hey stephanie... after "developing" I save a tiff file, and reduced size with frame and copyright .jpgs (usually 1000px wide), and put them to a folder on my hard drive, then to back-up folder on my external hard drive. When folder grows to 4gb or so, I burn a dvd, rename folders to date of burning or something, and make a new folder
I guess there's no such thing as safe option, but brand name dvd and one harddrive copy should be enough, I don't mind 10mins of burning every now and then
