I have put alot of items (documents, photos and logos) in folders finally to clean up my documents deal and put them in one place. In case my computer crashes again is there any way to save those folders so I don't lose everything like what happened earlier this year?
Thank you in advance.

You can either put them on a disc or get one of those usb flash drives and save them to that. I have a 4GB one that I have alot of stuff on and haven't used hardly any of it.

Using your favorite disk-burning program, burn the folders you identified to a cd or dvd's using the "Create Data Disk" or similar feature of your program.

I use an external hard drive. I got a 16GB, brand new off ebay for less than $90.

David external hard drive is the best way to go. Go to Walmart, Staples or Radio Shack and pick one up.

There are any number of online storage sites, like www.inbox.com, which offer free storage of files, photos, etc. Inbox lets you store 2 GB for free, but of course wants you to sign up for larger storage for a fee. The advantage to a setup like that is if anything happens physically to your computer setup, like it's stolen or caught in a fire, the files are safely tucked away elsewhere, ready for retrieval. Buyer beware when comparing what's offered out there. I use CD's and an external hardrive right now, but I'm looking into off-site storage for some of this stuff. Already found off-site storage for some of the paper stuff.

You can go to photobucket.com and store stuff there.
