Save Pictures USB Drive

Anyone know if there is a way to save or transfer all of your images to an external USB thumb drive?

I have many pictures saved in Forza 6 but trying to figure out how to transfer all the pictures into my external USB thumb drive. I looked on Youtube but found nothing.

Thanks for any advice!
 
I never understood why most games make you go online to get the photos, Midnight Club also did that!
 
I'd suggest you save them as a screenshot and retrieve them from a site such as xboxdvr.com instead. Not only this is much quicker and will allow you to circumvent the 100 pictures limit, but fm.net will only offer you .jpgs of much lower quality than the Xbox DVR function.

Unfortunately there's no way to save high-definition .pngs to a thumbstick à la Driveclub. The reasons are unknown, but @VXR may be bang on the money.
 
On the plus side, one thing I do like about the Forza approach is that you can check the shots out on your computer, and make adjustments to re-shoot without having to exit the game.

VXR is pretty much right, because at one point people were modding game saves for a mix of reasons. Take achievements for example. At one stage people were copying a modded save, which allowed them to unlock every achievement in a few games within a few seconds.

Along with achievements, people also used modded money to get an unfair advantage in the FM2 auction house. Or buy every car without earning any in-game credits.
 
They weren't just giving themselves achievements and in-game money; afaik they were also modding saves to "unlock" layer groups, liveries and tunes.

However, the reason I am not entirely convinced that security concerns are the only reason for T10's (and Microsoft's) choice to leave an option to export pictures to a flash memore drive is that even in the days of transferrable gamesaves (and modding), despite the limited storage space provided by the then-current Xbox models (which would've been a huge incentive to go the GT4 way), said option was missing.

Of course it's hard to tell, since in-game screeshotting utilities only became sort-of-a big thing only with this gen's consoles share functions and we can't thus compare the policies of T10/MS Studios with that of other companies which published multi-platform games.
