should i stop taking so many screenshots?

Yeah, I think the most important thing is to have fun whenever you can and don't overthink it unless you have to!
:3

i think i'll go around my other 3 sd cards to see what else i can delete, if any, today... maybe :>

yesterday, i said '' i think i'll go around my other 3 sd cards to see what else i can delete, if any, today... maybe :>''



i didn't do it yesterday, but i'm doing now, today, to see what i can delete :3

but i have a question: do i delete the fossil getting, balloon popping, egg finding, diy finding, old isabelle annoucements, bug/fish catching that are on there, or don't i? that's the question :>

question answered: yes, i do :3 cause i don't necessarily need them, after all, now
but i will keep stuff i do want, such as builds :>



but what about nookmile stamp cards? hmmm...


i might not do me any good, deleting screenshots off my other 3 sds.. i won't be using them...
but i'll look through them anyway :>

i deleted a WHOLE BUNCH of screenshoits off of my 3 sd cards yesterday & today :3 now i'm happy :>

now i can go back to pokemon sword... i never got to play yesterday cause of that...
after that, i'm thinking about playing acnh after a long while :>
 
I had this problem too I kept taking heaps of pictures then my SD had enough I would recommend posting some photos here in your island journals then for the rest maybe back them online or in a cloud so that way you can delete the other photos once they were saved and you can have space on your SD cards :)

i've already gone & deleted QUITE alot of screenshots off of my sd cards & switch recently *the balloon popping, fossil digging, fish catching, a few halloween event screenshots, bug catching & egg finding* so i'm quite happy :>


& i was putting them onto my discord then.... so i think it's no problem :3

just a little bit of a bump here:


i think... i think i want to delete all nonimportant acnh screenshots... i have too many & i just don't care about the conversations anymore pretty much honestly...hhp too, to be honest.. i mean, i love it, but ... eh 😑

....
i only want to keep the ones i like... the important ones :3

so that's what i think i'll do : D ... sometime....

edit at 5:48 pm: i'm gonna do it now actually :3

what did you end up doing?
it sounds like you're using an SD card reader and then transferring them onto your computer then to discord? then deleting them on discord? or your SD card(s)?

I'm the same way as your original post- love taking photos and screenshots but once my SD card gets full, I transfer it all to my computer then to my external hard drive. I still have everything from day 1 of my switch.

if you want a journal like way to archive them, have you ever used tumblr? :^O that's always a fun way to make a little gallery for yourself

or I feel like even making.... an island journal here? idk how that works but that could be fun

ahh makes sense
it can be a hassle at times


sorry if I repeated some posts , thought you were still looking for a solution rather than updating the situation!

i've just decided that of which i have on my sd cards, that i just want a certain type of screenshot of what villager that i like... in this case, sally... she was my best friend in Wild World 🤗 so i'm gonna delete the sally ones with conversation.... that doesn't include getting reactions, though... & ones with items that i obtained, too...

if it's a conversation of sally with someone else, however, then i'll keep it :3
