Hey guys!

So I'm trying to upload a HUGE load of family photos for my uncle and I'm in need of more space on my dropbox account to accommodate it. Sadly 53 gigs isn't enough and I need a bit more. :| Sooo, all I'm asking is if you could link the link below and follow the steps. If you don't have dropbox, definitely do it since it is a pretty useful little service that has saved me a load of times.

Much appreicated!

Don't mean to do this but I need a little bit more storage for a project that he wants to do.

what kind of resolution photos do you need that would take up 53 gigs of space?
Image compression exists.:suicide:

Mail some DVDs. Plus side to this is your uncle having spare copies of the images.

Or upload half of it, have him download it, and then do the other half?

Let me put it this way, OVER 20 years of family photos with different events and such. There just so many photos it's insane. Vacations, family events, you name it, it's on there. Compressed them a little bit but regardless it was gonna be huge... Would give my uncle DVDs and such, but it was getting to the point where he was gonna get SLAMMED with DVDs so he wanted everything in one spot where he could quickly go through them. Plus, I'm trying to save a bit of money without having to buy at least 10 DVDs plus actually mail them (not including the fact we're about to get slammed with a snowstorm). :|

You better have all of that locally backed up. Twice. On completely different drives.

Bluray burners have really come down in price in the last couple years.
