Hi Angelfish,
Thanks for the ideas.     I don't mind doing the scanning etc, it would be a pleasure!  Not sure how much someone else would be able to do re. a webpage/site though...I think I will just ask Rootschat for a separate webspace from my personal one, and get my Photoshop software to produce the actual pages.  They won't be flash, but people will be able to scroll through and see all the pics as thumbnails, and then click on ones they are interested in to  get an enlarged version.
It's the scanning that will take a long time, but if people are happy to wait, then I'm happy to do it.

Thrilled to bits to think that we are going to see photos through Rootschat.  Thank you Jakky and thanks to you too Prue for all your time and patience. In happy anticipation..........

Well done Cuz
& I know you are the one for the job because of your passion and expertise in photographic stuff.............. can't wait to view them.
Jakky what an absolutely fantastic find and I know what you mean, I too am useless on computers and scanning stuff to the best resolution etc etc but the magic will be worked on her . With out any shadow of a doubt you will make lots of Root chatters very happy (inc me!)

Hi there
      May I make a suggestion that if you wish to create a web album, it would be worth having a look at "j album", a freeware album creator.
       Here is an album that was made using "j album"
http://dennisford.rootschat.net/philippinealb/slides/2005-03-11indaysfilm6phils195.html
        It is highly customisable, with the ability to change any feature of the album, comes with many ready made and customisable templates.
         The particular album above can be scrolled through or used as a slideshow and could be burned to C.D. for distribution.

Excellent, thank you denn.  I will have a look at that.  It sounds more versatile than what Photoshop can produce.

Hi Prue

Are you planning to scan in the backs as well ?  Or will photos have any 'clues' as to names, areas?

Sorry, know it means twice as much work
