If you prefer, you can have the pictures uploaded to an FTP server instead of an email address. There are many
choices for FTP servers.
For example, you could enable the built-in FTP server function on one of your computers or download free FTP
server software such as FileZilla server.
Another possibility is to use an online account with FTP access, which is sometimes even available for free with a
limited amount of storage. You can download free FTP client software to manage the FTP server, such as FileZilla
client.
Yet another option for FTP server is to use a standalone NAS (Network Attached storage) hard drive such as the
MyBook World Edition.
