Digital frames add a twist to traditional picture frames.
SmartParts digital frame manufacturer offers computer connectivity on several of its frame models. SmartParts digital frames use the SyncPix desktop software to transfer pictures from your computer to the digital frame. The digital frame includes a mini USB port that connects to your computer's standard USB port. As a result, you should ensure your computer has a standard USB port to make the connection. In addition to transferring files using your computer, you can also insert removable media devices--a flash drive for example--to move new files to your digital picture frame.
