Question converting regular pictures to digital

Hi All
I would like to post some pictures but don't have the funds for a digital camera, and my computer is of limited capacity. Could I take my pictures to one of those digial scanners they have in some stores to make copies and upoad it to a cd? Then upload the pictures from he cd to my post. Is there any special soft war I need to load?
Thanks in advance.

Add yours!
you could do that or have your pics developed and put on CD. then use a photo program to resize the pics to a small kilobit size and up load.

i say this as my best advice to a beginner. do not,,,and i repeat,,,,,DO NOT look at my tank as an example....i have a well practised eye, decades of experience, and a trunkload of failures to allow me to force the issue and get away with things most cannot~

spot on advice witfull.... for older existing pics. most photoshops will take pics from the negatives and put them onto a CD for you, but best advice as witfull said is getting them put onto a CD when you get new ones processed....

It can be expensive over time..... so might be worth just saving the long term cash and buying a new printer... digicam anything over 3.5 mega pixels... and a pack of photopaper! then you only print the pics you want, and all others are available digitally where ever....

its a debate I am going through in my own head too!
