is the plastic archive-safe, and will the pictures stick to it?

Hi-The picture plastic has slide in openings for the pictures. I do not think anyone would call them archive-safe.The picture pockets are clear on both sides so 2 back to back pictures can go in 1 pocket. There is no "stick em" like in photography books. The pictures are held in place on 3 sides by the pocket. The top is open to put pictures in or change them around. They are secure in place for viewing this way.

I'm not sure it fits the archive-save category, but I have this item for a while and the pictures are fine. I will recommend it.

Don't know about archive safe, but we've used this for a year now and not had a problem with pictures sticking.

yes. they have to go in snugly or they will come out. plastic isn't as clear as an adult photo album but has to be safe for chewing

Not really. Try to send them back, or resell them. You can use them to store papers and pictures, but these will slide out if it's not heat laminated. Not worth the hassle.

If the photos are super, super precious, you may think about burning them to a DVD for storage like others have mentioned. Hard drives of any sort, are always a bit more volatile (less robust) forms of long term storage than media like dvd, cd, tape, etc. But they're extremely easy and convenient to deal with, hence their allure. Like other's have mentioned, sample a few photos that you write there to be sure you may open them. Even try to open on some one else's mac.

Yes. I believe so. Your pictures won't be touching much paper though. It's a really lovely album.

I have not found anything it does not stick to, but, I have never tried a plastic bag. I use it on paper, wood, CD's, DVD's, etc. I guess it would depend on the type of plastic. The heavier the bag the better. Grocery bags may not hold long.

I believe so-it's currently in storage so I can't test it for you, however 4x6 photos fit great so I don't see a problem other than rare occasion of huge packets

I have found them to be very safe for photos. I've 4 of these portfolios with my favorite photos ensconced therein. I highly recommend these things.

it will be a good sticking and will remain safe and undamaged as a long long storage place until u take it to out for inserting in other device like cell phone or camera!

I used it to frame an unopened record. Shrink wrap and all and didn't have any trouble with it. Double vinyl albums might be tight, but otherwise you should be fine.

ABSOLUTELY! They are terrific to use for storing photos. I highly recommend them!

Yes it will hold these photos. Some older photos may be an odd size, so keep your scissors handy.

Yes.. Best practice will be to download the still images into Organizer and then Edit in Elements - Organizer is included with Elements.

i really agree with the answer supplied by Michael Maguire...it all depends on the size of the photos you wish to store. Mr Maguire gave an excellent answer.

Since they're not intended for archival purposes, I would not store valuable posters in them, nor any poster for a long period of time. If either of those conditions applies, look for bags at art supply sources.

Print File products repeatedly claim archival quality, acid free,etc. Unfortunately the slides themselves are not...I have dye failure on many slides, 60 to 70 years old, but those sealed in metal or tight plastic boxes have fared better. I would also suggest binders or sealed boxes.

They zinc photo paper is not like Polaroids. So it should be fine inside the device.
