Online photo Album

[Mike]

Hi all

Just come back from a few days away and want to share some pictures with friends and family. Rather than sending loads of emails any ideas on online photo ablums.....just wonder if anyone could recommend one or any other ideas for doing this..........................

Regards

Mike

A few suggestions...

share and get copies:
http://www.photobox.co.uk/

automatically build a website to store in your ntl space:
http://jalbum.net/

not tried this but another free option:
http://www.darwinonline.org/index.php

if you're happy to pay - these are meant to be good:
http://www.pbase.com/
http://www.smugmug.com/

great place to seach / ask for other options:
http://www.dpreview.com/forums/

Cheers

www.ofoto.co.uk is quite useful too.

Dont use photobox, the upload is dire, they dont allow you to compress before upload. Mind you the quality of their prints is good though

Just tried creating a word document with hyper links to files...............could I change the hyper link to a thumb nail that people could click on ?

If so.....how

Seems OK. A friend of mine is using it to upload pics to while he's travelling around China.

could use this to create the thumbnails:
http://www.fookes.com/ezthumbs/

and then i guess something like this:
<a href="/username/photos/photo_001.jpg">
<img src="/username/photos/photo_001_tn.jpg"></a>

but to be honest if you download this:
http://jalbum.net/
it generates all the thumbnails and html for you.


gary - i agree uploading to photobox is a pain.

Forget all the rest, seriously, you really can't go wrong with Fotopic, they are truly the best... PM me if you really want any specific information or a look at my own Gallery...

Fotopic

Loads of free space, great connectivity and availability and extremely flexible... unlike many others that I have tried before. Trust me, these guys rock! If you want unlimited bandwidth, which is hard to come by these days, to be fair, you can get that also at a reaonable rate.... otherwise their standard free package manages to suit most requirements... I've experienced many other online galleries, either sites I've signed up to before or those that my friends use and I have to say, this one beats them all hands down.

You know it makes sense!
