Pictures to CD

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

Most every digital camera will allow to download the pictures you take with
it, either by some type of cable connection (USB for still cameras, Firewire
for camcorders) or some type of digital media (Mini CDs/DVDs, MMC/SD/Memory
Stick etc..) It really depends on your camera. Then, once you download
them to your PC/laptop, you can do what ever you want with them (edit, print
and burn to CD/DVD).

Please note: The above concerns digital cameras and not cell phone with
digital cameras built into them. Cell phone with digital cameras do not
normally allow you to directly copy the pictures from the phone. You
usually need to send them over the cell phone carrier service, since they
purposely disable all other method of downloading the pictures.

I agree with Picasa 2.

When you write to a CD you are "burning". It is usually best to burn an
entire CD at one time. That can mean waiting until you have a few hundred
pictures or an entire vacation. It is not really practical to burn one at a
time since some readers may not be able to read multiple burns.
