My computer is old and if it something happens to it where i can save my pictures to put it in another computer.
Purchase an external hard drive and backup your computer.
Do it today. Not tomorrow, not next week, not later. When your computer crashes (not if). You will simply lose everything you have on it and we'll see this question by @fito on Funadvice the next day:
"Help my computer died and I lost everything"
THen everyone will be answering "Did you backup?"
And you'll say "no, I was going to".
Alternatively (cheaper than a backup drive) is to signup to a service like Carbonite. It costs $59.00 per year.
Here's the Link: http://www.carbonite.com/en/v2/index
Don't be a cheapskate. Backup now if you respect your time and data.
The problem with both those approaches is that he will forget to backup after the initial surge of concern. @fito's computer will crash and he will ask himself "Damn, when was the last time I backed up".
Therefore we do not recommend that people use these solutions just for that reason.
I will suggest you to always keep the backup your important data and picture in an external Hard disk or you can also save it online in "http://docs.google.com "- which has1Gb of free space,where you can save your data easily.and can be accessed from anywhere you want.

Yeah, @Joel, but if you have to do it manually, you are going to forget. How does adding date stamps solve that problem?
If you have a Google Account then Google Drive. Or Dropbox: http://www.dropbox.com
I back-up all my stuff on Dropbox
Put them in a dropbox ... it's free and you can access them anywhere.
We can't be held responsible for the laziness of others (โโกโ)
Its called adding date stamps to the folders you upload.
