If you have a printer is likely also a scanner/copier as well.

• Find those old family pics with group shots of dead relatives in them - pics with live folks are ok too
• Connect your PC to your printer
• Insert your picture into the scanner (you'll figure it out)
• Look for a program on your PC called Windows Photo Gallery (or any progam that says "photo") and open the program
• Once the program has opened select File>Import from Camera or Scanner
• Some kind of import box will open - make sure your printer is selected
• Select OK or Import (or whatever the choice is)
• BEFORE you start to SCAN...
  • make sure you have selected the option for "color" photo if you are scanning a color photo or
  • gray scale for a black and white photo
  • make sure you have selected the option for file type "jpg" or "bmp" will work well
• Now you can select Scan
• You will probably be asked to name your picture before it is saved on to your PC (note the file location the picture is saved to so you can find it again)
• send it to me to publish scottphillips@nc.rr.com
• you can send me your questions as well

Get scanning!

I'm trying to put together this site with your help. I'd like it get at least 1 scanned pic (pdf or jpg) of every deceased relative - to put a face to a name so to speak. Or if you can help with providing any missing information for your immediate family - birth dates/dates folks died. You can send this to me via email at scottphillips@nc.rr.com

Thanks!
