Classmates website used to allow FREE browsing of their HS year book online database

[Anonymous]

The Classmates website was only able to build this large online database of HS year books through donations.

People would donate HS year books to them for them to scan and upload online to build this database

For years and years it was FREE to browse and view the year books

But now they are charging for this service.

So that means I now have to pay to view a HS year book online that I donated to the Classmates website

With each passing day these corporate scumbags are becoming more and more greedy

Is this a troll? What adult still looks at high school yearbooks?!

Visit your hometown and go to the library. Problem solved.

Hey, don't blame them for profiting from your gullibility.

If you pay for an Ancestry.com subscription (or can access it at a public library) you can get access to a similar database.

Also, you might be able to rebuy the book on eBay or Alibris.

Write the website and tell them to give you a complimentary subscription. It might work. Especially if you have a donation record.

Facebook is filled with adults in Facebook groups reminiscing about their high school and college years.

I didn't donate my yearbook because I needed to keep the hard copies. How else was I to know that Mark wanted me to Stay Cool and Heather wanted me to have a Great Summer and a Good Time at College?!?

Yeah, because 3 days of vacation, a $450 flight and two nights in a $250 a night hotel is cheaper than a ....... $6 subscription.

I can't believe how dumb half the people are here.

I wonder how they are getting around copyright issues.

My hometown is DC. Which library has my high school yearbooks?
