Choose the folder in the images processed folder you will be downloading to. For example, if you are downloading English pictures, find the English folder under Academics.
If you take multiple photo assignments and can't use this downloading system, then just download using your name how you want it to appear in the yb. Then go in and save each picture as specified above, as well as saving each picture in the proper location.

Organizing Pictures

After saving pictures with the proper file name (Specific Photo Assignment followed by your name the way you wish it to appear in the yearbook), drag your folders to the images unprocessed folder in the 2008 yb folder on the share drive. Make sure you organize them properly. If you take Band pictures as the Varsity Football game, they would be organized in Band, not football.
