No need to pay for online services.

(I might, but I doubt that would be first on everyone's list!!) It would be a great idea to upload those photos to a server- you can keep them for free in an account with a digital photo developing company (upload them as if you were going to print them, but just store them there), or a number of online storage places. That way, if you need your photographs and something has happened to your computer, you can use someone elses computer to retrieve them.
