It sounds like you downloaded a whole bunch of pictures at one time -- I'm not quite sure how. That's not what I did. I got a single large image on the screen, right clicked on that and saved it. Using Internet Explorer. You might want to try Internet Explorer. I used Firefox for a while but there were some things it did I didn't like (I've forgotten what) and I went back to IE. Note that the Web site it self certainly cannot make separate folders and create files in them -- the browser has to be doing that, which means that Firefox is doing it. Possibly following some sort of instructions from the site, but I personally don't know what those instructions might be.
If you tell me EXACTLY what you did I'll try it with IE and tell you what happens. Maybe I'll try it with Firefox if I feel particularly brave.

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! Alice

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!

*Subject:* [HSChorus] Photo sharing??
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
