Do you know what even more fun is than an album of pictures? An album of pictures that you can edit! In 1992—when the internet was still a new thing, and Photoshop was still just a dream in someone's head—Kodak introduced Photo CD (PCD), an early version of digital photography that let you store your photos on a disc and then edit them with a program that came with the disc. It was a big deal at the time because it meant you could finally get rid of all those pesky negatives and prints that were taking up space everywhere and if you wanted to do something like sharing your photos with someone who didn't have the same kind of camera as you did? No problem! Just send them one of these discs, and they'll be able to see all your edits on their computer screen. If you were a fan of photos, then you knew that the Kodak Photo CD was a thing to behold. This little disc could store up to 100 high-quality digital images—along with slides and scanned prints—and display them on your computer. It had a special proprietary encoding, so you could view, store and edit pictures using computers. The design complies with CD-ROM XA and CD-i Bridge specifications so that it would work in any computer system. best of all: when you want to print your photos, there is no need to go out into the world! You could use a special Kodak machine to bring those beautiful memories to life on paper. For years, all you could do with your old photos was throw them away or put them in a box. But now, with the advent of photo CDs from Kodak, your old photos can be digitized and stored on compact disks that can be used on a computer. The images are stored as positive images in 5 to 6 levels of resolution. The image files are stored in the Image Pac format. The process is simple: take your negatives or prints and bring them into a Kodak store, where they will scan and digitize them for you onto one CD-ROM. You can keep this CD at home or store it elsewhere, and it won't get lost because it has your name printed on it!
