Online image backup with PicBackMan
There are 2 different tabs that you need to go through before backuping is actually possible. The first tab is where you choose for which folder or which online accounts you’ll be creating the backups for.
On this image we’ve decided to add the My Pictures folder to the list of Associated folders. Folder association is just the programs way of saying that the folder that you want to backup is now added to the backup location list on the left. Right from the listed My Pictures folder you will see a list of the previously mentioned 7 online image sharing services. If you want and if you have an account on all of them, you can perform updates to all 7 of them, at the same time.
Select the services that you want to upload to and then switch to the other tab where it says Connect Accounts, in fact, first you’ll have to connect your account, and then select the services where you want to upload to in the first tab, you’ll be warned about this:
After you’re done setting everything up, click on the Upload button at the bottom of the window and the program will start uploading pictures or downloading depending on which option it is that you’ve chosen. Facebook images can be backed up by clicking on the Associate Account instead of the Associate Folder option in the first tab.
PicBackMan is a very easy tool for image backup, to and from several different image sharing networks, make sure to try it out.
