I sent them almost 500 photos to scan dating back to 2000. Most of them were from when I studied abroad in 2003 that I had taken out of photo albums to send in. When I sent them in they were in a specific order so I would know where they were taken. I even put in notecards in between sections (like they had suggested on their website so they’d create separate folders), but they ignored those and just scanned them as if they were pictures. So they showed up on my DVD as photos, but not in any helpful order. This was devastating as it was really difficult to accurately reorganize my photos and identify where pictures were taken. There are multiple photos I can’t figure out. VERY DISAPPOINTING AND FRUSTRATING. I would not recommend them for photo scanning.
