Hi, I did exactly what you did and tried to save it to "My Pictures" after first making a file for them. When I checked in "My Pictures" each individual picture was put in a separate folder...when I opened the folder I found the picture as well as about eight text-documents with different titles. I did not open them as I have heard horror stories about the hazards of doing this. Also, the filter on my computer had a grumpy face on the whole time I was on that site. (I have Mozilla Firefox which uses a monkey face as it's icon.) And we all know it's not wise to make a monkey grumpy!

What kind of unwanted files were they? On the face of it this sounds very bad, especially for a service you have to pay for like SmugMug. (Most people I know use Flickr, which is free if you are willing to accept some restrictions and ads, and you can pay for it if you don't like those features"). HOWEVER, I downloaded both "large" and "original" versions of one of the photos and didn't get any surprises. How did you do the download? I just displayed the picture, right-clicked on it and chose "Save Picture". (This is in Windows Internet Explorer 7).

Hi, Suzanne...wow...your pictures are fabulous! Thank you for taking the time to share them.
I do want you aware of a problem I had, though...My computer does not like the photo site you used. When I tried to save some of the pictures MANY unwanted files were also added! Fortunately I checked after only (what I thought was) four pictures and found almost 40 extra files had been downloaded! I deleted the unwanted files and tried to only copy the pictures I wanted and it refused to let me...maybe I have to "be a member" of that site...oh, well...thanks, again...Alice
PS: you have a FANTASTIC smile!

Hi all. Welcome back to those of you who went to Mexico City - - sounds like you had a great trip!!
Richard and I have just figured out how to get the (600 + :-) photos that we took in Europe during the HSC tour off our camera and onto the computer (we are digital camera newbies...). Now I need some advice about how to sign up for an online photosharing service - - and which one to use - - so that I can share some of the photos of this fabulous trip with all of you.
All suggestions welcome. I would like to use whatever is the EASIEST possible thing- - think "photo-sharing for dummies", here.
thanks!
Happy 4th. Suzanne
