There was a time when sharing your photos online was a lot of work. You took digital photos, or scanned prints and placed them on your desktop computers. Then, you built an album with photo album software. After that, you uploaded the lot to your Web site. In many cases, the results weren’t all that spectacular—you had a photo album, but it didn’t look all that attractive.

  3. I’ve been using fotki for 2 or 3 years now and have absolutely no complaints! I love it! I really love being able to upload photos directly from the folders on my computer, it’s so simple and quick. I do have the premium version because I have so many photos on the site. One feature that wasn’t mentioned in the article is co-branding. To quote Fotki’s help pages: “With co-branding, you have the ability:
    -to create, customize and maintain your own web site with Fotki so that it will be your homepage with no elements of Fotki’s design
    -to apply your own design to your Fotki account with the purpose to tightly and seamlessly integrate any of your Fotki pages into another site of your own with its own logo, design and color scheme. This provides a facade for you and your visitors to transparently move between your albums and the rest of your site.
    This is particularly useful when you have your own personal or business website. Your albums will be hosted on our web servers but the pages will appear to be an integral part of your website. However, even if you have no any other site, you can change your Fotki pages look and feel just for fun.

    Mine is very simple, but I really like it for sending to friends and family that are easily confused by all the options on the normal fotki page.
