Thank you everybody for your help.

I have used Falcon's method, and got the pictures in tiff, and then re-saved them as jpegs. They all come out wonderfully clear on my 19" lcd screen.

My next challenge is to see if their photos, once enlarged, come out as clear as on screen.

Also, I have found that LightScribe DVD-R's are now available. But I have to place special orders for them because the stores do not stock them at all.

Rock on, all you nice people out there !!!!
