[NTLUG:Discuss] Photo CDs

[David Stokes]

Walmart puts Kodak Advantex (and maybe other types) pictures on CDROM
as an extra cost item.  They also bundle windows/mac software to read
the images if you are so inclined, but I used GIMP with no problems. 
The photos are in jpeg format under a 'pictures' directory.  I forgot
how much the extra they charge but the price was not that unreasonable.
