I have thousands of pictures. Some in my phone, some on cloud, some on 2 different office computers, some on home computer. What is the best way to compile everything into one and print hard copies? How much would this cost?

maybe dropbox to sync everything in to one photo folder? That or just carry a giant flash drive around with you. No clue on printing them out, but I'm guessing expensive

Check out this link.

Personally, I really like Google+ photos as you can upload in full resolution. Buying extra space form them is pretty affordable do.

As for hard copies, yeah it's gonna be a lot. Why do you need hard copies?

What is pied piper? That logo looks like someone sucking a dick with another dick behind his ear for later. Like a snack dick.

The old Pied Piper “flute player” logo was referencing the fairy-tale character and in no way was meant to suggest a sexual act involving either the mouth or ear of the figure depicted. Apologies to any who were offended, and the logo has been changed to our current green “PP”!

Surely you don't actually want to print thousands of pictures which means you're going to need to organize them. Google Picasa works really well for sifting through pictures to pick out the ones I want to edit and print. I have a shared drive on my home network, just dump the pics from phone to PC and copy them to the network share and when you fire up Picassa it catalogs any new photos in the share.

I'm assuming you have an iPhone with your referencing of the cloud. Do you have a mac? The new Photos app is fantastic and I've organized 5 years of pics by date in an evening. Now I just dump the photos/videos in from my phone every month or so and it automatically puts everything in date order that's also searchable by location.

Have you seen Pied Piper's Weissman Score? Insane. OP, Pied Piper is the only answer.

I want to print most of my pics because i like the idea of having photo albums rather than scrolling through the computer. I don't know why. I just haven't found anything that makes viewing good quality pics easier than a photo album

I have a lot of photos. I use a 2TB external HD I have 95% of them on.

I have over 125,000 photos and it isn't even pushing 300GB

That's only about 2 MB per photo. All from a phone?

I have tons and tons of pictures (my wife loves to take pictures of the family), so I invested in a yearly subscription to SmugMug. I upload everything there, lock the whole site with a password and don't worry about it.

They will let me purchase a DVD of all my pictures for a nominal fee.

Most are converted from NEF files to Jpeg, some are from my Nexus 4/5 phones. Around 200 are masters I keep to have printed and framed. They are my best shots or have some kind of meaning.

Don't have any plans for showing them off, they are just for me.

With Nikon cameras the largest file will be 16mb and smallest is 4mb

easy


just did it with audios,,,,works the same.

go to each source with a usb flash [ microcenter brand is awesome. 128g for cheap ] copy then when you are finished, go to your computer and organize them however you wish

when done go to costco or print at home and only add to that usb and keep a cpl copies in different areas.
