I have thousands of pictures and am wondering if there is a limit to
how many pictures can be in the My Pictures. My husband says I should
save them & then move them to the C drive, but then they don't show
in screensaver. Is there a max recommendation for the My Pictures?
================================
I'm not sure what he means about moving
to the C: drive...you definitely need to store
them in a folder...possibily in some additional
(new) folders in My Documents.
BTW you can create a screensaver from
any folder that contains image files. Just
click the settings button and select any
folder you wish.
I've never seen any info about a maximum
number of files in a folder. If you are not
experiencing resource issues when you
access the files I wouldn't be concerned
about it.
I would certainly hope you have your files
backed up on external media...CDs, DVDs,
Flash Drives or possibly an external hard drive.
Maybe the following article will offer you
some ideas about managing your collection.
