Picture Keeper Giveaway

June 16, 2009

This giveaway is now closed and the winner has been contacted.  Congrats Sarah Z!

If you’re anything like me you have thousands of pictures saved on your computer or laptop.  And if you’re like me you know that you need to back them up- you just don’t ever actually take the time to do it.  It’s a long and tedious task that is always on your to-do list but never gets done.  My system for backing up my pictures is that at the end of each month I burn all of my pictures from that month to a CD.  Except that I haven’t done it since last June.  It takes sooooo long and my laptop runs soooooo slow that I hate doing it.  But I worry that if something happened to my laptop I would lose all of those pictures.  Gone forever and ever.  The thought is more than I can stand.

So- when I was contacted recently to see if I wanted to try out a new product called Picture Keeper- that makes backing up all of your pictures easy- I said YES PLEASE!!

Picture Keeper

Picture Keeper is my new best friend- seriously.  It was sooooooo easy!  You simply plug the little doo-dad (that’s the technical term for “flash drive”) into your computer.  The flash drive has the software right on it, so you don’t have to do anything like download  a program (otherwise known as something that would confuse me and cause me to put it off for another day).  Then with the simple click of the mouse you are on your way to backing up all of your pictures.  The Picture Keeper finds all of your pictures- no matter where they are on your computer- and copies them.

Picture Keeper

I had over 9000 pictures on my laptop so I was a little skeptical that it was going to take all day and make my computer run slow.  Guess what?  I was wrong on both accounts.  It took a little over an hour and I was able to use my computer just like normal- no slowness at all.  Plus- I can plug it in to Rich’s laptop (or any laptop or computer) and copy pictures from there too.  Then I signed up for an email reminder- and once a month I’ll get an email letting me know it’s time to back up my pictures again.  Then I’ll plug in the Picture Keeper and it will find only the pictures I have added to my computer since the last time I backed them up.

Another thing I loved is that the Picture Keeper saved the folders and subfolders exactly as I have them on my computer.  So I have a folder called “Want to Print” filled with pictures from the last year that I will eventually get printed.  Now all I have to do take the Picture Keeper with me to the store and plug it in- open my “Want to Print” folder and print out my pictures.  It couldn’t be any easier.

Summer is a time when families fill up their digital cameras with thousands of images—taking pictures of little Jimmy’s first time at the beach, a group shot at the annual family reunion, or candid photos at the 4th of July picnic. At the end of the vacation, a quick transfer of images from a digital camera to a computer is where most families stop, leaving their photos at risk of a computer crash or some other unforeseen event. Recognizing that Picture Keeper can save families the time, stress and hassle of saving and storing irreplaceable family photos, Dr. Toy awarded Picture Keeper with a Best Vacation Product for Summer 2009 Award.
Winners of the Best Vacation Products for Summer Award are carefully chosen using extensive criteria developed over many years by noted child development authority and author of Dr. Toy’s Smart Play- Smart Toys, Stevanne Auerbach, Ph.D. (a.k.a. Dr. Toy). Among the criteria used to determine winners are: safety, age-appropriateness, design, durability, lasting play value, creativity, good value for price and, naturally, fun.

Picture Keepers come in three sizes-

  • 4GB- $29.99 (For up to 4000 pictures)
  • 8GB- $39.99 (For up to 8000 pictures)
  • 16GB- $59.99 (For up to 16,000 pictures)

Not sure which size you need- do this 10 second check to find out.

And- they are offering a 10% discount- enter Blogger10 to save 10% off any purchase.

PLUS- One lucky reader will win either the 4GB or 8 GB Picture Keeper.  I KNOW!!

    I have hundreds of photos stored on my computer which really slows it down. I have about a dozen CD’s with photos and I even have the good ol’ floppy discs with some older photos saved. I would love to consolidate and put all of them in one place so I don’t lose any!

    My current method is to have them stored on an online site. I do worry though that the site will eventually start charging for storage and I will be scrambling for something to do. This would be the perfect solution.

    I don’t have a system for storing my photos so this would be a big help to me.

    I have an external hard drive that I use for back-up. I would like the Picture Keeper for my mom, who not only doesn’t back up her computer, I shudder to think of how long it would take me to teach her how! This would make it simple!

    I usually pack it up in my external hard drive and then occasionally print them out, but other than that, Idon’t have a full scale way to back up my pictures. This sounds like a good first step!

    My 14 yr. old daughter copied my photos onto cds one time, but didn’t label them, so I have no idea what pics are on what cd. I send pics to family members, and my sister has been putting them of flickr, but I have so many, I could use this thing for sure.

    Unfortunately, I do not have a way to back up my photos now. I lost a TON of photos when my laptop crashed last year. I was so sad. Most of the photos from my laptop were directly from my digital camera’s memory card. Once I put the photos on my laptop I deleted them off the card and didn’t even think of backing up my computer. I was so sad (and still am). This would be wonderful to have!!

    My current method of backing them up is….NOTHING! That’s why I’d like to win. Some day I’m going to lose them all and then I’ll have to beat myself. Thanks.

  138. Wendy says:

    The method I use for backing up my priceless pictures is nothing. Maybe once a year we throw everything we have on a disk. But we really need to do more. I would be heart broken if I lost all my precious pictures.

    What a cool idea! Currently I transfer all of my pictures to our external hard drive, and then when I get enough I burn them onto a CD. I’m always a little worried that something could happen to either one and I’d lose all my pics!
