Elf - Does your camera connect via usb? If so, try this.

Some digital cameras are recognized by the OS in 2000 and XP as USB external hard drives.
  • Don't bother to install the software.
  • Connect the camera to your husband's pc.
  • Turn the camera on.
  • Open up a Windows Explorer window (Windows key + E or double click on My Computer).
  • Look at the list of hard drives. Does it show an additional hard drive?
  • If so just copy the files from the new hard drive (actually your camera) to the hard drive of your husband's pc.
  • Open them in your favorite picture viewing software - irfanview is free and well thought of.
  • Resize it to a convenient viewing size. (Check that it is < 100k) If it is jpg and a reasonable size it should be.
  • Upload it to cellar (Look below the submit reply button. You should see a Manage Attachments button.)
