People were talking about how to scan photos in another forum. I personally use AutoSplitter (no affiliation). I used it for thousands of photos since it splits multiple pictures individually, automatically names them, and auto-corrects for rotation; some of which were used for TCDB.

Thanks for starting a thread on this topic. I don't have a scanner. I go to FedEx (still think of it as Kinko's). On one hand I'd have to buy a scanner; one the other I'm paying 75 cents per color scan and I've done hundres of those. It's not a convenience thing to have a scanner because the main Fed Ex I go to is just a couple of stores over from a grocery store I frequent.

Thanks! I also digitized thousands of old family pictures for my family and other close relatives. If you do get one, make sure it is just a scanner. You don't want the headache of owning a printer.

Do you have just a basic printer or no printer? Most modern printers these days are also act as a scanner.

I have a printer (HP Deskjet 3512) that doesn't work. It did scan but that was before I started scanning cards with any regularity.

I think it might be a good idea to invest some of your spending budget on a new printer.
