Now that you've taken digital pictures of many things, things that are very important to you, what do you do with them?  You want to be able to  share them with others and show them off. You have important pictures of events and memorable times in your life that you want to experience again and again. There are several ways to do this. Slide shows, prints, photo books, pictures on mugs, key chains etc. The great thing about digital pictures is that you only have to spend money on the good ones.

This is my favorite way to show off my photos. You can also do some really creative things that people will enjoy watching them over and over. I have made shows of my grand kids, birthday parties, trips we have taken, Weddings that I have photographed, and anything else that you have a group of photos to show together.

Here is an example of one I made that is photos of my daughter and her friends and her band, Set to music that she wrote and is singing. She loves it. Click her to watch it.

The software is Photodex Proshow gold. Very cool software that you can do almost anything you want to make a slide show of your pictures. It sells for $69. They give you a web page that you can save the shows too, And invite anyone to come and watch them. You can upload them to youtube, you can save them on a DVD, you can make them a auto start show on a computer, and many other output options.

Shutterfly is a site where you can upload your pictures and make prints, books,and many other products like mugs, mouse pads, t shirts, bags, puzzles, etc.

You can also have your family and friends come to site and see your photos and order their own prints or books or anything they have. If you want prints and need them fast, you can pick them up at your local Target store.

Snapfish has most of the same things as Shutterfly. The sharing, and all the products. They have the lowest price on 4x6 prints, $.09. They also have the best price on 4x8 photo cards, and good quality. Many choices of books, some as low as $4.99.  You can  also pick them up at Walgreens.

Mpix has all the same things as the others above but they are more high end. The prices are higher but the quality is fantastic. They also have several products that you can't get anywhere else, and a special metallic photo paper that is really cool for certain photos. They also have professional framing and many other professional services.

Adorama camera Also very high quality and excellent service. They also have all the same types of services. They can also print on the back of a print if you want. The prices are very reasonable. They are also part of one of the best camera stores in the country.

Viovio specializes in photo books. They were one of the first bookmakers. They have many sizes to choose from and very good prices on the books.

There are many others out there, these are the ones that I have used with very positive results. Check out their websites and try a few to see what you think. Have some fun with your picture
