Digital Photo Frames.

some pictures and prices:

Digital Photo Frames, Digital Picture Frames - Walmart.com

One I move back to Tampa I will have a lot less room for my pictures. I have hundreds of them! In frames no less. I hate photo albums because you never look at them, I like to see them every day. Here's a display over my computer desk:

So my solution is to hang a few of my favortive 8x10's and then put the rest in a digital frame. It needs to be about 8 inches minimum (to hang) and since i want two..not too expensive!
Does any one have suggestions as to brands or stores? Does any one have one?
I have looked and priced..I have read all the feedback, but don't know if I trust those.
Thanks for any imput.

I have a kodak one that I got at Sam's club on the AS IS shelf because it was a floor model. Not a thing wrong with it. I suggest you stay with a known brand because some of the off models don't display a crisp picture. A good one will cost you around $130 each. Not cheap but if you wait until around Christmas time they will probably be on sale. Not sure if this helps but they are well worth the money.

I got mine (a kodak) with a camera at Sams club 2 years ago for about $79 for the package deal (which was really good those models are still going for $120 or more for just the frame), ofcourse it went all freaky on me for a while so I just stoped using it... then about a month ago we pluged it in and it works perfectlly...LOL

I got one for Xmas last year. The manufacture is GPX. Love the thing.

I did what you are planning years ago. Scanned and put them on disk or on computer and then I gave the kids most of their pictures---kept a few that I have hanging on walls. I successfully emptied a couple of drawers.

A few years ago I made copies of all my pictures (a set for my ex's and Mikes that pertained to them) A set for each of the kids and for cousins and mom. That way if anything happens to the originals, I can always ask those people for copies of the copies.
I have a 6 drawer storage thingy (snap together) that holds all my loose pictures..separated into catagories. Most are already in my computer. I like to edit and restore old pictures to show them at their best. I also like to do composites.
I am looking forward to having these frames..less clutter but still have all my pictures on display. I get teased all the time about my pictures, but I notice that everyone looks for theirs.
The kids/G'kids love showing off the 'Shrine" as they call my pictures. It is an ice breaker for sure!
