Abstract

A method and system for guiding management of digital images includes: receiving at least one captured digital image with an account identifier; creating a message to an address associated with the account identifier, where the message includes an access to a form to proceed with a specific task associated with the at least one captured digital image; and sending the message to the address. A user can then access the form through the message and provide form data to the server. The server can then proceed with the next step in the task. In this manner, specific tasks in the management of digital images can be uploaded to a server, and the user is reminded to access the server to perform these tasks. The user is not required to manage the image on the image capture device or to remember to finish a specific task associated with the captured images.
