I would add that if you keep your two versions of a file together under the same name, just different formats, the inheritor is not going to get 'lost' about what they're inheriting. --- JL Beeken JLog | http://www.jgen.ws/jlog/ On 6/15/2012 11:37 PM, Mike Fry wrote: > On 2012/06/16 06:18, CE WOO

It's not a requirement to keep your photos in the Legacy Picture folder. If you do, though, you have to remember to back up from that location. It's not what we usually think of as 'default' like My Documents. It doesn't actually matter where you keep them. I keep all of mine, and different sizes
