I got some pictures that I'll want scanned in and uploaded. It occured to me: why not get a photo CD made? I'd like some more info before I take the plunge. 1) what format are the images? What resolution? 2) regarding "multi-session" ability, how can I find out if my drive can handle it? If it is not, will I still read the first session OK? 3) how do I access it? will it appear as a DOS disk or what? –John

John: You can get some basic answers to your questions in the file CDFAQ.TXT in Libr #1. You can also talk to a PhotoCD lab in the new CDROM Vendors Forum (go cdven) called Best Photo Labs. Finally you can go dirctly to Kodak in their new Forum (go kodak). Keep us posted! Best – Rich Bowers

Thanks. I'll download a fresh copy and see if it says more about photo-CD. In a CO transcript I found out the resolution, but very little else. –John

There is also a KODAK forum I just noticed too (GO KODAK).

Hi John. You've already gotten some good suggestions. When you're ready, there are some files in Lib 10 of CDVENDOR forum (GO BESTLABS) that deal with service times, pricing, etc. Regards, Bob

Thanks for the tips. I'll look in that forum.

Hi, John. I use "GO CDVEN" to get to the CD Vendor forum. See if that works… Evan

Hi John… Sorry about the page empty message… The forum still has a few "construction" glitches, I guess… I'll see what I can do. Bob
