How to transfer photos from truprint to 'my pictures'?

Hi,

I currently have 4 years worth of photos all stored on Truprints on-line storage. I would really like to be able to copy these to a file on 'my pictures' so that I can then move some onto a digital frame, but mainly, to copy them all to CD for permanent storage.

I can do each photo individually, but as there are hundreds, just wondered if there was an easier & quicker way to do this?

Thank you

    I don't know that website but if you select the first file, press the SHIFT key & select the last file, normally this lets you choose multiple files. Have a try in the file manager/Windows Explorer.

    Truprint ( and probably all the other print services ) have been very clever and far sighted here.

    To be worth downloading you really need the original high resolution version rather than the low res one you see when browsing through the images. Truprint charge you 5p per photo to do this, allowing you to add up to 50 to a basket at one time.

    There doesn't seem to be a facility to get them all posted out on DVD or similar.

    When I first realised this I felt I was being held to ransom, but in fact, as long as you trust Truprint to always be there, then this is actually a pretty good way of backing up your images to a remote location, and a 5p charge isn't really extortionate.
