There is a mailing list at rootsweb.com for Vintage Photos: _http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/other/Miscellaneous/VINTAGE-PHOTOS.html_ (http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/other/Miscellaneous/VINTAGE-PHOTOS.html) and they've had some recent discussions on how to preserve and store old photos which are in the list's archives: _http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/VINTAGE-PHOTOS/_ (http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/VINTAGE-PHOTOS/) There are over 30,000 mailing lists at rootsweb.com to cover almost any topic associated with genealogy, history, storing records, photos, etc.. Try browsing some of them to see if any apply to the topic you have a question about. If you can't find one, you can contact me off the list and I will try to help you find the appropriate mailing list. Thanks! Marilyn - List Mom **************Ideas to please picky eaters.
