Hi Matt,
I don't know about the best way but personally I keep photographs and
pictures separate. I have two folders one for documents and the other for
pictures. You may prefer to have separate folders for different types of
documents eg births, marriages, deaths etc.
A couple of points you may like to keep in mind. In case you make web pages
in the future it is best not to leave spaces in the file names and save them
as jpg. Secondly remember that Legacy only memorises the path to the folder
and does not store the document/photo itself; so moving an image or folder
will mean that Legacy cannot find it.
Good luck,
Ron Ferguson

I have just begun to scan documents and historical photos to associate with
my Legacy database. Can experienced users suggest the best way to organize
these photos and documents? What file system do you use?
Thanks,
