Transferring photos

[davholla]

I messed up, I left some photos about 200 or so on a PC in Colombia.
I think the only way to get them, is to get a family member to upload them to google drive/drop box and let me download.
Is there an easier way?
I have a horrible suspicion this will be a nightmare.

USB flash drive and FedEx? If they're not computer savy or the Internet speeds are horrid.

WeTransfer is a free upload / download system that can do 2gb at a time for free

https://wetransfer.com/

So if 2gb isn't enough, split them into smaller batches

I use it all to time to deliver hundreds of photos to my clients - its dead easy

As above, use WeTransfer.

Thanks wetransfer looks good - although I bet it is not easy for my mother in law

Could you talk her through ammyy.com and then do it yourself?

Basically you both go the website, install a 0.5mb package, she gives you a client code over the phone, that you enter into your version and you then take remote control of the pc...

An idea but it is a linux PC. There is also the problem that the ethernet cable connecting the PC is not very good and sadly my mother in law takes a very very long time to buy anything so some manual intervention is needed on her part.
