[quote=Anonymous]My grandfather died last year and I've been given the task of going through a huge tub of old family photos and finding a way to share them among various siblings and cousins.  There are many truly wonderful photos there, and I am planning on getting a bunch of them scanned and put onto CDs, and possibly eventually making a nice book out of them.  But there are hundreds and hundreds of pictures and not all of them are particularly great.  Many are in bad shape or just out of focus or weren't that great to start with.  There are also unfortunately a good number of pictures of people who I presume were related to us at some point but sadly nobody who is still alive can identify them.  And of course they are all out of order and just stuffed in a box.

Any thoughts on how to approach this?  Do I have all of the pics scanned for posterity even if I have no idea who is in them?  Or even if they were not that great to start with?  Then once we scan, how do we go about dividing up the originals between 4 cousins?[/quote]
