I recently purchased a new digital camera that can create pictures of up to 8 megapixels. I love the quality of the photographs made with this camera. However, storing and sharing 8-megapixel images creates a few problems.
First of all, the file sizes are huge. Most of the pictures I take consume about 3 megabytes of disk space to store a single image. That’s twice the size of a standard floppy disk just to store one picture! (Does anyone use floppy disks anymore?) Of course, there are no film developing costs; so, I click the shutter many, many times in hopes of obtaining the perfect picture. I may not save all of the photos, but I often keep two or three variations of everything I photograph. The result consumes many megabytes of disk space.
