This was another challenge for me. The technology was not the challenge, however, sharing photos with the world violates my sense of privacy. I have found pictures of myself on Facebook AND I cringe each time. I don't like that others can post these without my permission.
I opened a Flickr account and uploaded a single picture. It is of no significance so I felt comfortable doing it. I could not transfer this picture to Facebook. I did succeed in copying the same picture to Facebook.
I guess that I could use this process in my library in working and storing archival pictures. However, the privacy issue still bothers me so I won't do this. For buildings and scenery, it might be fun. I'm not eager to post pictures of real people.
I am experimenting with Picassa as a means of sharing family pictures. I would only share old pictures where the players are not alive anymore. The identification of the pictures would not be posted, only shared by email to specific individuals. I've purchased a scanner and will try this whnever I find the time.
