My photos are in a photo album or a shoebox, how do I get them into a digital format?

There are several ways to turn your precious photos into digital images. The first is to scan them yourself with a digital scanner. If you don't have a scanner, you can take them to a photo shop or a discount retailer's photo center and they can scan your photos and put them on a CD for you. Once you have the CD, load the images on your computer and they will be ready to upload onto your memorial website. Another alternative is using an online photo scanning service like www.scanmyphotos.com.
