Putting photos on CD

I'm new to this group so if I'm in the wrong place someone will
probably put me right.
I am looking for software - possibly similar to Roxio drag to disc -
that will allow me to put camera images sagely away on to CD.
The snag is money is a bit tight. Ideally the software should be
freeware or cheap.
Can anyone out there help?
All advice will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

If you're just talking storage and you're running windows xp then you
can drag and drop any files to a cd.

If he wants more than just drag 'n' drop, there's always Picasa. The price
is right.

If you have Windows XP, you don't need any special software, just drag
and drop the files onto the CD icon.

I found the native windows xp method not too good, forget all the
reasons. If as someone suggested Picassa burns a cd, you can use that.
Before I got an external burner with bundled software, I used burn4free.
It's simple, very good and is free. There are others, but I liked this
one the best.

The WinXP method is pretty basic. Select the files, drag to the CD
icon, and when all are moved to the buffer storage, tell XP to make the
CD. It works. Nothing fancy, but functional.
