Last summer, I visited my Dad and we talked about how he had thousands of old photographs and slides in the attic. The old projector and screen that we used to look at the slides have long since been given to Goodwill.
And then I found out about:
www.scancafe.com
You simply estimate the number of photos/slides/negatives you have, UPS them to ScanCafe, and voila---6 weeks later, you get a disc of all the images. And there are 2 really, really good things here:
1) you only have to buy the images you want (there's a 50% minimum)--so you don't end up with all the double copies and photos where people had their eyes closed----AND,
2) it's inexpensive--only 19 cents per negative, 24 cents per slide, and 27 cents per paper photo.
They also have gift cards available for the Holidays, in case you're looking for a cool gift--I just can't tell you what a trip down memory lane this has been.
So here's the picture that I looked at today that made me cheer up, with 2 of my favorite people in the world, so it's actually 2 good things as well. :)

I just saw this picture today while going through the CD. Isn't it great? This was such an awsome idea. Thanks MaF (and ScanCafe!)
