How
do I install Pictures?
Installing
Pictures is not necessary but recommended for quick and easy access.
To
install:
- Insert a Pictures CD.
- A welcome screen will appear and give you the option to view
the gallery, read the End User License Agreement, install or
exit.
- Select "Install Photos."
- After the installation is complete, a Preview Gallery can
be accessed from: Start>Programs>Pictures.
The default installation location for the full-size Pictures images
is My Documents>My Pictures. You can either use the
Preview Gallery to copy and paste a picture into other applications,
or insert the images from within another application that has
an "Insert Picture" or equivalent command.
Alternately,
you can access Pictures images directly from the CD without permanently
installing the entire contents:
- Insert a Pictures CD.
- When the welcome screen appears, select "View Photos
Gallery".
- Left-click on any picture. A full-sized picture will open
in your Web browser.
- Right-click on the full-sized picture and select Copy, then
Paste the image into an open document in any other application.
- You can also access the pictures from within PowerPoint and
other Microsoft Office applications. Simply navigate to the
CD drive that holds the Pictures CD and select the folder named
Photos.
