[quote=Anonymous]If that were my collection I would set up a few piles. First up would be to go through and sort them with all of the bad ones going directly in the trash, all of the exceptionally good ones going in a "share" pile and the mediocre ones in the middle pile.  I would then go through the middle pile with fresh eyes. Again, any standout ones should go into the share pile and then try to sort the remaining ones into family groupings. Namely each family of cousins gets their own pile with pictures of their particular family in it.  You will likely be left with a large pile of folks you can't name. This is where you use your cousins and other people to see if they can identify anyone.  When you've done the best you can, have that iDisk or something made with the best one so that you can share them. I would also preserve the originals in a photo box as well.  The biggest thing is not to be afraid of throwing away the bad photos. Pictures of the back of someone's head are  no good to anybody.[/quote]
