Instead, a common
tag has allowed many people to act as a collective to share their photos. And the tagging system at
Flickr and other photo-sharing sites makes it possible to discover this sort of thing all the time.
412 How to Do Everything: Digital Camera
Show Off Images in a Digital Picture Frame
Another way to display digital images is in a digital picture frame. Digital picture frames are
LCD displays mounted in a picture frame. Equipped with a memory card or Internet access, a
digital picture frame can show off your photos in a continuous slide show. Digital picture frames
are readily available. There are many models available from companies like Philips, Kodak,
Mustek, and Digital Spectrum.
These frames are post-modern versions of traditional picture frames, with the twist that they
can cycle through dozens or hundreds of photos in an evening (see Figure 18-2). Many support
standard memory card formats, like CompactFlash or SD, so loading them with photos is as
easy as copying pictures from your computer to a memory card and then inserting the card in the
picture frame. Other frames can pull photos from photo-sharing sites like Flickr or connect (via
Wi-Fi or an Ethernet cable) to your computer and access the photos there.
Here is a handy chart showing some of the most popular digital picture frames:
