Hi All,

Does anyone know how to get your photo's back off Snapfish? Getting worried that they could go under what would happen to all of your Photo's if it went under.

The wife has photos back to 2006 and I want to get them off and put them on a hard drive.

Any help apart from buying jpegs at 25p each.

Cheers

John

If you view each photo you can right click and save to your PC (or a hard drive attached to it). What I haven't yet discovered is a way to save multiple photos, this way only works for each individual photo, so could be time consuming if you have uploaded lots of pictures

Would right click, "save picture as" work?

You're telling me you can not get more than one at a time back or you can buy the album back in jpegs for 0.25p a photo!!!!!!! they only charge around 0.9p for the photo to be printed!!

Seems HP own them, if the OP can upload pictures, then there is going to be an option to look at the files to edit them, right click save as....

then invest in a dvd burner and some blanks smile

They claim to only keep hi-res copies for 90 days anyway.

Don't do the right click save as. What you can do is click on all the photo's in the albums which will then store in your t'internet temp files where you can copy and move them into another folder

When you retrieve all your pictures, you need to replace your photo browser and storage facilities!!

Get Picasa - free from Google.
Creates a single searchable directory on your hard drive, and is so simple even your wife could do it!

It simplifies CD-ROM back ups, edits, and optimises pictures for emailing.
Best of all, the edits are applied to copies of the original, leaving the original untouched.

Use Picasa albums online for storage of any pictures you want to share online. Again - all free and easy to use.
