I finally got done sorting my 2008 photos this morning so I can start putting Christmas gifts together with them and needed to upload about 280 pictures to Shutterfly, where I have been getting prints since about 1999. Of course I could do this with their uploader, but that would be quite lame now, wouldn’t [...]
