So, CD R only, no CD RW. Do not put any executable files on the CD, only image files. Files sizes should be relatively small say 5-10 MB max.

Dante: >Having noticed that Walgreens is having a special of 4x6 prints at 20 >cents a pop from CD I stopped by my local Walgreens to try to make some 8x10s. I'm trying to figure out what my options are for prints. I either need a new printer or have prints made for me. I was hoping I could use my corner Walgreens to make working prints and then spend bigger bucks to have a few special prints made elsewhere. Anyway... My first try was with pictures saved on a CD-R in tiff format. No go. The guy said jpegs only. So, I went back armed with jpegs. Still no go. It wouldn't recognize that I had any images on the disc. Worked fine from other computers. So I decided that was too much hassle. So what I'm trying to say is before you load up 200 CDs to go over there, you might want to put a few images on disc and see if those will work first.
