How do you back up your photo files?

I back mine up by uploading them to the internet. I paid for the minumum "Plus" service on photobucket, which gives me 20 GB for $30 a year. I have uploaded almost every picture I've ever taken from 2003 through to today, and I have only barely hit 51% of that 20 GB.

I figure these internet hosting sites are less likely to go down if there is a problem. If you don't want other people looking at your pictures, you can make it all private.

This is Photobucket's pricing, but you might shop around and find a better photo hosting site.

I also think CDs would probably make a good back up storage media, even if they take time and space.

I..... I also replace CDs and DVDs with new copies now and again.....

That is very wise. Your collection of photos is to valuable to risk any loss.

Hopefully he still has the slides/film. Not that those are forever either, but it helps!
