How to Burn Photos to a CD
A single photo can be transferred from one person to another via email. But you may wish to share several photos with a friend or family member, and due to file size restrictions in email accounts, you may not be able to send all of them at once. One way for you to send these photos is to burn them onto a CD. Unlike creating an audio CD, however, photos are burned onto a CD through Windows Explorer (if you are working in Windows).
