I have an Olympus digital camera and it came with its own software. I installed it on my computer and when I download the pictures off the camera onto the computer they are in jpg format. I just upload the pictures to places like desertsunmedia.com or shutterfly.com and have them printed. I do back them up onto CD from the computer (which now I have to get them to DVD....) and my CD burner came with software also, it is called Adaptec Create CD and it is very easy to use. I believe you can download it from the internet- I just open it, chose Data CD, once it open I go to the place where the pictures are and drag and drop the pictures to it and press the button called create CD and it does it's thing! Very easy! Check the settings on your digital camera to see if you are saving them in jpg format. Mine has the choice to switch between jpg and tiff but it defaults to jpg.
